6R80 Shift Kit 2009-2014, new and ready to install. Fits the 6R80. Ships fast from the USA.
Despite the shift kit name, this 2009-2014 6R80 listing is pictured as a full master rebuild kit: two sets of friction plates, a large stack of steel plates, both valve body separator gaskets, the molded pan gasket, the pump and support gaskets, lip seals, O-rings and sealing rings. It is new, not used, and it is aimed at the first generation of 6R80 trucks and cars, the 2009-2014 F-150, Expedition, Navigator and the 2011-2014 Mustang, whose transmission now slips, flares between gears or engages slowly because the clutch packs are worn out.
The 6R80 makes six forward gears by applying two of five clutches at a time. A, B and E drive parts of the Lepelletier gearset and C and D hold parts of it to the case. Each pack is clamped by a piston that is only as good as its seals, and each pack only holds if the frictions still have material and the steels are flat. When a pack wears it rarely shows up in just one gear, because every clutch works in more than one range. A master kit is the soft-parts answer: frictions and steels for the packs, plus every gasket and seal that keeps apply pressure where it belongs.
This year range has one internal split builders must respect. GEARS Magazine reports that for 2011 Ford added a one-way clutch on the rear planetary, so the D clutch releases at about 3 mph instead of holding first gear by itself, and the case and C/D support changed with it. A 2010 unit and a 2013 unit can differ in plate count.
Not every slipping 6R80 needs clutches. Ford recall 16S19 covers 2011-2012 F-150s that could drop into first on an intermittent output speed sensor signal, and TSB 13-6-8 covers 2011-2013 units that launch in 5th with a zero speedometer, both traced to the lead frame. Check recalls on your VIN, read codes, and watch commanded gear against actual ratio on a road test. If the ratio slips while sensor data stays clean, the packs are worn. The 6R80 Expedition shift problems guide and the 6R80 won't shift into overdrive guide cover the electrical side.
The listing is for 2009-2014 6R80 units. Because the 2011 one-way clutch change altered the C and D packs, count the frictions and steels in each pack as you strip it and compare them with the kit before you start assembly. If you would rather confirm first, send us your year and VIN. Builds from 2015 on use different parts; see the full 6R80 parts collection for later kits and the 6R80 master rebuild kit 2009-2014 as an alternative listing for this range.
Soak new frictions in Mercon LV before assembly, lube every lip seal, and air-check each clutch circuit before the valve body goes back on. Set pack clearances with selective plates. The valve body comes off for a rebuild anyway, so this is the time to deal with the lead frame and solenoids: the 6R80 lead frame kit addresses the recall-prone part, and the 2011 6R80 solenoid kit replaces drifted solenoids. Fill with Mercon LV, enter the solenoid strategy code into the PCM if solenoids were replaced, clear adaptive tables and drive the relearn.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
No. The photo shows a master rebuild kit with friction and steel plates, gaskets, seals and sealing rings. It renews the clutch packs and seals rather than recalibrating the valve body.
It is listed for 2009-2014, but Ford added a rear one-way clutch for 2011 that changed the C and D packs. Count plates per pack against the kit, or send your year and VIN to confirm.
Probably not. A 5th-gear start with a zero speedometer on 2011-2013 units is a lead frame output speed signal fault covered by Ford TSB 13-6-8. Check recalls first.
Inspect the pump, bushings and drums, and consider a lead frame and solenoid kit while the valve body is off, since lead frame faults are common on these years.
Mercon LV. Soak frictions in it before assembly and fill with it afterward, then clear adaptives and drive the relearn.
