4r75e
How long does this trans usually last before it fails and a rebuild is required? I am coming from the horrible GM 4L60E that fails generally after 50k everytime.
I am hoping this Ford unit is much much better, however I have had 3 friends with F-250s loose there trans in the last month with around 150k on each.

The 4r75e is a Crown Vic transmission they adapted to the F150s.
In short, it isnt longed for the world if you thrash it. I thrashed mine and it was smoked @ 24,000 miles.
The unit now has a billet 11" converter, FTVB Calibration kit, Spiral Clip upgrade, Hi-Energy Carbon Overdrive Band, Hi-Energy Clutches, Deep Pan for additional fluid and cooling.
The unitworks extremely well now. However, it only has 100-200 miles (ALL HARD) on it after the rebuild.
We will see if it holds up. I dont think it will.

my Bronco had 283,000 miles on the original trans...O/D was starting to slip, but overall the trans was amazing at that mileage. I had 2 other F-150's with 120,000 and 150,000 on their original auto trannys as well

is there a difference between the 4r75w and 4r75e?
which one is in the f-150s?

sorry, I thought you had the 4.6....then most likely you do have a trans cooler. look behind the bumper. the a/c condenser will be directly in front of the radiator, but then there will be this little shoe-box sized radiator for the trans.
I haven't looked at mine lately, so I can't exactly remember where she is
