SOURCE: 01 dodge 1500 4x4 Transfer case / transmission problem

check the rear differential as well as the transfer case...you may have broken something in both of them...i have seen it happen...since 4low uses a different gear it is possible for it to move in low and not 4 high

SOURCE: 1996 S10 4x4 4x4 does not engage manual shift for transfer case

I figured I'd write a followup in case it helps somebody else.

Per @ccn7's information I did some troubleshooting and determined that the problem was the thermal linear actuator (TLA) [GM# 26013495). I ordered an aftermarket replacement (600-100) from Amazon.com cheaper than I could get wholesale from a parts store.

It worked except that I had to remove the electrical connector from the new unit and attach the connector from the old unit. Apparently the one I ordered is for trucks manufactured before 01-02-1996. Instead, I should have ordered the newer design (600-101) and my connector would have fit. (Or so I'm lead to believe.)

I've also discovered that you can get a replacement kit that eliminates the TLA altogether. It's more expensive and more work to install, but apparently it provides additional benefits over the standard TLA. Google Posi-lok if you're interested.

Thanks for stearing me in the right direction ccn7!

Sometimes the transmission in my 98 2500 4x4 gets stuck in second gear. I just put a brand new transmission in it less than 100 miles ago. Everything is plugged in and I just put a new speed sensor in the...

You either have a Linkage problem, or a shift fork problem.

I'm betting shift fork (inside the tranny) as I don't think you have a linkage, but you didn't specify your vehicle well.

94 F-150 4x4 e4od Strange shifting.

That's what I said about my Mustang Gt when the tranny went out on it, it sat for 5 years until I finally sold it. I started looking for a replacement tranny for it before I decided to sell it and found a few on ebay for a reasonable price Shipped and Guaranteed for around $1500, beats breaking open the old one then sorting through whats good and bad, kits cost $500 alone. Then doing the rebuild and hoping it's all good with no guarantees on if it will or how long it may last. Not to mention the mess and time and frustration of taking on the task. Just removing it will change your mind on doing a rebuild. That always seems to be enough work by it's self, having the other tranny right there to put in will make it a 1 day task. No parts to loose or find out that they don't fit or the case needs to be machined, many things come to mind.

Shift fine in forward gears but now does not shift into reverse. The truck will not pull in reverse. it is a 4 wheel dirve with a automatic trans.

Will it move if you put the transfer case in low range? If so the there's a good chance the reverse clutch is going out. Did it go all at once or did you notice some slipage? If it went all at once it could be a hydraulic problem or broken internal parts. It takes more pressure to apply reverse than the forward gears so it could a valve body or pump problem. Is it full of fluid, is the fluid dirty (brown or black)? I think Ford recommends changing the fluid at 30,000-50,000 miles change the transfer case oil too.

Transmission fluid leaking back, 1988 Ford Bronco

your output seal on the tranny or input seal on your transfer case is bad. you have to pull your transfer case to tell. this is a pretty straight forward job. block wheels. put transfer case in neutral. drop front and rear drive lines.diconnect transfer case shift linkage. there is a short commponent connecting the trans to the transfer case. the bolt on either end face each other. remove the bolts to the transmission. the transfer case is heavier than it looks, i suggest getting help. pull back on the transfer case until it will drop down. it will pull out a bit because of the trans output shaft. replace what will probibly turn out to be the tranny output shaft seal and reassemble in reverse order.

Transmissions on a Ford F250 with a 460

You more than likely have the E4OD tranny in the truck. These transmissions are very prone to failure and problems. They are very expensive to rebuild and or replace if only using an exchange unit already rebuilt. I have rebuilt many E4OD trannys and would not recomend that particular tranny. Average exchange rate for a rebuilt is anywhere form $ 2800.00 to $3500.00. If you are considering buying this truck look for a manual tranny version instead.

E4OD starts in 2nd or 3rd when cold

The E4OD is a complicated tranny and unfortunately prone to many problems. There are three shift controlling solenoids inside the tranny mounted to the valve body. Without being able to actually drive to evaluate it makes it very hard to give you a starting point for trouble shooting. I have rebuilt many of the E4OD transmissions over the years and found them prone to many problems. That's why Ford quit using them. A tranny shop can hook up to two different line pressure ports to evaluate the problem. But, be warned they are going to recomend a rebuilt be installed. You will be looking at around $ 3300.00 dollars for the rebuilt unit.

Will a ford c6 tranny bolt on to a 1995 ford 5.0l or 5.8l motor?

From 1990-1996 The C6 was replaced by the E4OD which was modified to include a fourth forward speed and electronic shift controls, replacing the hydraulic control mechanism of the C6.

The C6 works fine in your bronco.. Your friend will need a different transfer case!. i dont have the manual but this is my best guess. FOrd likes to make cars that have interchangeable parts. Like a 1999focus can interchange with 2007. as long as the liter and engine size are the same. In some cases. you will have to use different transfercase.

So you might be better off with a c6 transfer case or c4 for your friend.

Hope this helps

Transmision

That is a lot of miles on the tranny. Being a Ford it probably has the E4OD tranny. The E4OD has several clutch packs in side. Sounds as though your direct drive clutch pack has gone out. Also the torque converter has a lock up mechanisim in side which may have given up the ghost . This tranny has improved over the years from the origional version. But, this tranny needs frequent service if towing a heavy trailer. Once the fluid gets burned it needs to be changed immediately or problems will result if you let it go and try to change later. Just to purchase a rebuilt if it is a E4OD will be around $3400.00. If you want to rebuild it the parts cost for just a basic kit will be around $900.00 to do it correctly. There are many hard parts to check for tolerances internally. By hard parts I am referring to sun and planetary gears and what not. I hope this has helped. I have rebuilt many Ford trannys over the years and the E4OD can be problematic at times. The newer versions are more reliable.
