Know This Transmission Before You Buy
The research behind our purchase interview — recalls, bulletins and real install economics for this transmission family:
A quick look at your own vehicle makes sure the right transmission shows up:
- Confirm the 8th digit of the VIN is 'G' (2.7L EcoBoost V6).
- Physically verify the vehicle is a 4x4 model with a transfer case.
- Check the driver's side door jamb safety sticker under 'TR' for code 'W' (6R80 6-speed).
- Locate and photograph the white barcode tag on the driver's side of the current transmission case to verify the 6R80 family.
What the install really takes — plan and budget with confidence:
Special tools this job needs:
- transmission jack
- driveshaft spline tools
- scan tool capable of programming Ford modules (IDS or FORScan with OBDLink EX)
- transmission fluid fill pump/adapter
- transmission cooler line disconnect tools
- torque wrench
Budget for these consumables at install:
- Motorcraft MERCON LV ATF (12 to 14 quarts for dry fill)
- Motorcraft FT-188 transmission filter and pan gasket
- Front pump/input shaft torque converter seal
- Transmission cooler-line flush
What your vehicle’s computers will need after the swap:
What’s involved: Solenoid Characterization / Solenoid Body Strategy programming (13-digit strategy and 12-digit ID), plus Transmission Adaptive Relearn.
You must program the unique 13-digit solenoid strategy code printed on the transmission case tag into the vehicle's PCM using Ford IDS or an advanced setup like FORScan. An adaptive learning drive cycle must also be performed.
Pro tips for a smooth first start-up — hand them to whoever does the install:
- Torque Converter Seating: Must be fully seated (three distinct clicks/drops) to avoid crushing the front pump gears upon bolting to the engine.
- Solenoid Strategy Code Matching: Record the 13-digit Solenoid Strategy and 12-digit Solenoid ID from the case tag before installation, as it is hard to read once installed.
- Fluid Fill and Level Check Procedure: No dipstick under the hood. Level must be checked via a short plug on the passenger side of the transmission case near the hot exhaust while the engine is running at operating temperature.
- Cooler Bypass Valve: The internal thermal bypass valve requires a specialized flush machine or heating to ensure the thermostat opens during flushing.
Easy to get right once you know them:
- Ordering 2WD instead of 4WD (or vice versa) which have non-interchangeable tailhousings and output shafts.
- Skipping the mandatory 13-digit solenoid strategy programming, leading to harsh shifts and immediate clutch damage.
- Forgetting to record the solenoid codes before installing the transmission.
- Using incorrect fluid (such as Mercon V or generic ATF) instead of Mercon LV.
- Improper fluid level checks (checking cold or with the engine off) leading to severe under-filling.
- Failing to flush the transmission cooler, causing old debris to contaminate and destroy the replacement unit.

🔎 Recommended at install: Reprogram the PCM and perform an adaptive learning drive cycle.
🔎 Recommended at install: Replace the internal molded lead frame connector.
🔎 Recommended at install: PCM software update, resetting adaptive learning tables, or replacing worn valve body components/solenoids.

Policies, in plain English.
Shipping & Handling
- Ships by LTL freight on a pallet — a real freight truck, not a parcel van
- Your checkout freight quote covers delivery to your door (liftgate service included for residential addresses)
- The carrier calls ahead to schedule a delivery window — someone must be present to receive it
- Typically palletized and picked up within 2–3 business days; transit time depends on distance
120-Day Warranty
This part includes a 120-day warranty.
- If the part fails within the warranty window, we'll replace it or refund per the coverage terms
- Coverage is parts-only — installation labor is not included
- Warranty covers defects — not installation errors, misuse, or damage after installation
Your pre-purchase interview reviews these exact terms with you before anything is charged.
Returns (30 Days)
We accept returns of uninstalled parts within 30 days of delivery for this part.
- Defective parts: We will replace the part or issue a refund at our discretion

- Parts must be returned in original packaging and unmodified condition
- Poorly packaged returns that arrive damaged will not be credited
Damaged in Shipping?
Freight damage is rare — and you're fully protected when you do two things at delivery:
- Inspect before you sign — you're allowed time to look the pallet over while the driver waits
- Write any damage on the delivery receipt before signing — that one line is what makes a freight claim succeed
- Severe damage? Refuse the delivery — it goes back at no cost to you and we make it right
- Photograph the pallet before unwrapping; report concealed damage within 24 hours of delivery
We handle the carrier claim — you just help document it. Your pre-purchase interview walks through this checklist too.
Order Cancellation
Cancel before shipment for a full refund. Once the pallet has been built, a preparation charge may apply — and once the freight carrier picks it up, shipping costs are non-refundable and standard return terms apply. Your pre-purchase interview shows the exact numbers before you pay.
