- 2000 EXP XLT
Ok, Ive done alot of searching on the subject with mixed results. I have a 2000 explorer with a 5R55E auto with control trac. Its a 4L sohc. I have a 93 explorer sport with a good M5OD-R1 and 4.0L OHV with everything intact. It has been totalled from rearend damage. I was wondering if i could swap this transmission into my 2000 OHC. I already have a New BW1354 to swap in. It seems the blocks are very similar from the ohc and the ohv motor. So shouldnt the bellhousing bolt pattern be the same or very similar? I heard about them having one bolt missing or extra? Ive taken a look and they look the same. Also on some parts websites they list different part #'s for flywheels but i cant tell the difference. Also the part # for the 93 clutch disc indicates a 4mm smaller size differencefrom the 2000 part # it doesnt seem like this would matter much when 4mm is divided between the both sides. Also the slave cylinder has a different part #. Is the input shaft larger or smaller on the newer trans behind the ohc motor. Lots of questions i know but i keep getting different stories i dont want to start this project and halfway through discover that its impossible. Also i think the brake/clutch pedal setup out of the 93 will bolt right into my 2000. Thanx for all the help in advance.
