Transmission Problems

New question about the 4R70W Transmission on a 2000 Ford F-150 4.6 4x4 could a clogged filter stop this transmission from going into reverse. I know the Chrysler was good for this but was wondering if the ford transmission was too?

I've never seen that happen. The only time I have seen a filter clog is when one or more clutches fail. The debris from a failed clutch can clog the filter, But the failed clutch is the cause of the non-engaging gear, not the clogged filter.
