transmission interchangable
I have a 1995 f150 302 8 cylinder 5.0 liter 4x4. My transmission measures 28" in length. I went and got a transmission from a 1995 7.0 XLT long bed 4x4 the transmission measures 32". Will I be able to mount it into my truck? The parts guy told me that the xlt was a c class or E class and if the latter it would mount into my truck? So has anybody have an answer for me?
What's a 7.0 ?
If you meant to say the donor truck also had a 5.0 but the transmission is bigger than the one you have; I would guess you have a 4R70W and the one you picked up is an E4OD.
If that's the case, it's possible to use it but lots of things have to change; trans crossmember, driveshaft, probably the trans wiring harness and as BLD mentioned, the computer. It's possible, but a lot of extra work.
If the donor truck had a 7.3 it isn't going to bolt to your motor; not even close.
