Well they can't. My 2000 F150 Triton has no spark plug wires but the 1997 does, I mentioned that because I've been told a 1997 transmission will work in my 2000 F150 but the 1997 is a E4OD and my 2000 is a 4r100. Reason I'm asking is I've got a good deal working on a 1997 F150 transmission but I'm hesitant on buying it because I'm confused on it being compatible with my truck? Any idea's?

Here are the swap notes that are stickied in our forum:

The way I look at these trucks is in the year range of 97-03 there are two year ranges- 97-98, and 99-03. They changed the front end in 99. Some of these trucks have coil packs and some don't, but I don't know what years that happened or if it is just scattered.

Also your 2000 should have spark plug wires.

I would not try that swap. You need to keep searching for a 4r100

All 5.4's had Coil on Plugs. 4.6's between 97-2000 Had plug wires. All 4.6's from 2001-2003 had COP's

Also the 97 that you think the trans will work from it wont. For one if it has plug wires its a 4.6. Which has a 4R70W. If your truck has a 5.4 and you have a 4R100, you are stuck needing a 4r100.

Thank you, you just saved me $400. I'll keep looking for a 4r100.! Thanks again!

I am getting a 97 f150 with a 5.4 parts truck and I have a 02 f150 with a 4.6 both are extended cabs and I know not all the parts will interchange but what can I use off the parts truck on my 03 ????

You need to start a new thread rather than reviving an old one if you want to get more attention to your question.
