This transmission can be found in the 2005 Navigator, 2006 Explorer and Mountaineer, 2007 Expedition, 2008 F150 and 2010 Mustang. The 6R80 is a six-speed automatic, and, nearly a decade after its introduction, the transmission was a game-changer in both off-the-showroom floor as well as the swap world. Jovanis uses a Ford Performance Control Pack for the engine and drivetrain control and he estimates output to be around 650-700 rwhp with this combination. Do you just have 6R80 questions and need some answers? He dropped a Coyote 5. Despite having 6 forward gears, the transmission is only slightly larger and heavier than light-duty four-speed automatics, such as the 4L60E and 4R70W. Note: There have been many engineering changes in this transmission since its introduction. That magnetic field is used to move a plunger that is attached to a valve.
Ford 4R100 Transmission found in 1999 and up trucks. The American Racing Headers long-tube headers are specific for Coyote swaps into Fox-body Mustangs and only for stick-shift transmissions, but we went ahead and used them anyway. Covers transmission assembly, dis-assembly, diagnosis, and troubleshooting. Looking at the Mustang-only drag racing scene, we see several 7-second cars, and recently, the aftermarket has introduced billet internals for big power builds. Sure, Ford produced the robust 4R100 that was found in heavy-duty trucks and the Gen 2 Lightning, but its strength came with girth, making it less than ideal to swap into most cars. This manual is directed towards the professional transmission technician, all builder notes and cautions should be adhered to in order to avoid mistakes or personal injury. Hughes Performance installed a 300M billet intermediate shaft to replace the stock one.
The content assumes the reader understands how transmissions work and what tools are required. It is an excellent choice for a performance upgrade or when swapping from a manual to automatic transmission. This manual will show the disassembly and assembly of both the Generation 1 and 2 transmissions as well as component differences and transmission specifications. Each manual is 100% dedicated to a specific transmission model. The torque converter is filled with the High Performance Lubricants trans fluid and slid into the transmission. Note: There have been many engineering changes in this transmission since its introduction.
Are you looking for 6R80 transmission troubleshooting help, 6R80 rebuilding tips, 6R80 technical service bulletins, 6R80 diagnostics or technical information? The 6F35 has two design levels, Generation 1 built from 2009 to 2012 and Generation 2 built from 2013 to present. If you are a Warehouse Distributor and do not have a Ford Performance Account, contact your adminstrator to have them create an account for you. This Ford transmission manual assumes you are a novice mechanic and provides information about how the transmission works before getting into general transmission removal, disassembly, reassembly and installation procedures. Hughes has 33 different stators with nine fin angle options for this particular 6R80 Pro Series torque converter, giving the team plenty of choices to tailor-fit the converter to a wide-variety of applications. The gear ratios offer a generous ratio spread of 6.
The ratio drops off to 2. This particular build is rated at 1,300 hp, offering quite a bit of security when it comes to durability in this application. There is already a growing ecosystem of swap parts available for the 6R80, including bell housing adapters for various non-modular Ford V8s, with others likely to follow. The final step in the rebuild was a dyno testing of the transmission in-house dyno at the Hughes Performance facility. The Motor Bookstore offers the best service and a 30 day money back guarantee. If you plan to rebuild, modify or enhance the performance of your Ford automatic transmission, you have come to the right store. The 6R80 is a relatively tough transmission from the factory, but Jovanis shipped it to Hughes Performance to have it freshened and upgraded since it backs a supercharged Coyote 5.
I highly recommend that you talk them into buying a re-manufactured transmission over one that was simply rebuilt. The Coyote Power Module simplifies both the shopping and build experience by kitting up the right parts that are matched to deliver potent performance with civilized drivability. The modern Ford automatic transmission market has always been a step behind its competition from the General. It is important for the rebuild technician to pay close attention to parts differences between Generation 1 and 2. The 6R140W assembled weight is 350 Lbs. The transmission slipped into the tunnel rather easily, prompting him to start doing more research, which revealed the swap is very common with a lot of aftermarket support for it.
As a side note, we used an F-150 transmission, but if you source one from a Mustang, the shift-linkage will be different than this installation. Once the electricity is turned off to the solenoid, the magnetic field disappears and a spring inside the solenoid moves the plunger and valve back to their original position. For every 20 degrees you go over 200 degrees you cut the life span of the transmission by a factor of two. It is important to test fit the transmission and mark the points of interference. The Pro Series converter that Hughes Performance built for Almond Joy will maximize performance on track and offer the proper coupling characteristics, efficiency, and part-throttle response for an enjoyable street experience. This offers limited movement of the gear selector so it can only engage Park, Reverse, Neutral, and Drive. There is no traditional 1:1 ratio before Overdrive, which might sound odd, but in this situation, it works rather well.
Without a doubt an automatic transmission is the most complex and sophisticated subsystem in your Ford truck or car. Hughes Performance adds a deep transmission oil pan for extra fluid capacity and this transmission required 13 quarts of transmission fluid.
