4R70W Overhaul Kit 2004-2014, new and ready to install. Fits the 4R70W. Ships fast from the USA.
This is the overhaul kit for the late version of Ford's 4R70W, the 2004-and-up unit Ford and the rebuild trade often call the 4R70E or 4R75E because it added a turbine (input) speed sensor. People shopping for it usually have a high-mileage Crown Victoria, Grand Marquis, Town Car or a mid-2000s truck that is leaking, engaging late on cold mornings or slipping out of overdrive, and they want a complete reseal for the late-style hardware rather than a kit built around the 1990s parts.
Like the earlier unit, the 2004-up transmission uses hydraulic pressure to apply its clutch packs and overdrive band, and the seal set is what keeps each circuit tight. The late design changed several of the sealed parts. ATRA's interchange notes describe a larger bonded rubber intermediate piston in the pump, a wave-style return spring on 2004-2005 units and a one-piece spring from 2006, and thin plastic forward sealing rings on the stator support. An overhaul kit for this range is aimed at those parts, along with the pan gasket, front seal, servo and accumulator O-rings and hub sealing rings.
Pull codes, check the fluid hot and drop the pan. If the magnet carries lining and steel debris, expect to replace frictions and steels along with the seals. A line pressure test separates a sealing problem from a worn pressure regulator valve in the valve body. Our 4R70W Crown Victoria shift problems guide covers the late-model checks step by step, and the Expedition shift problems guide is useful for the SUV and truck side.
The listing covers 2004-2014 4R70W-family units, meaning the late 4R70E/4R75E design. It is not meant for 2003-and-earlier cases, which use the aluminum intermediate piston and cast iron stator support rings; for those, see the 2003-2014 overhaul kit, which spans the change. Even within 2004-2014 there are running changes, so compare the kit against your old seals at teardown, read the case tag, or send us your year and VIN to confirm. All parts for this family are on the 4R70W collection page.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
It is listed for 2004-2014 only. The 2003 and earlier unit uses a different intermediate piston and stator support sealing rings, so use the 2003-2014 kit or confirm with your VIN.
It is the 2004-up evolution of the same four-speed, with an added input speed sensor and several updated internal parts. Many seals and gaskets carry over, but the pump intermediate piston and stator support rings differ.
If the pan shows burned lining, yes. An overhaul kit renews seals and gaskets; check the product photos for what is included and plan on frictions and steels if your packs are worn.
Follow your owner guide. 2008 and earlier Crown Victoria models list MERCON V, and the 2009-up cars list MERCON LV. Do not use MERCON V where LV is specified.
One common cause on 2004-up units is a magnetic early sun shell installed in place of the non-magnetic late part, which blinds the input speed sensor.
