Ok my truck is a 2wd 2005 with 220k miles. The trans does not want to reverse, even on a hill in neutral it does not want to roll backwards. In the shop on stands, rear wheels and calipers removed, in neutral I can roll the driveshaft easily "forwards" but only moves a tiny bit in "reverse" before there's a clunk sound definately from the trans...
Assuming I will be looking to swap in a used 5R110W. I see 2008+ have a different tc. I have read that the 5.4 gas trans is different (lighter) and I dont want that, but any 2003.5+ diesel or V10 trans will work?
I will be more likely to find a 4x4 version - I know the transfer case is separate, but also the tail of the trans is different? Is it easy to take off my existing 2wd tail and put it on my "new" 4x4 trans?
