Hi,
My 02 explorer's automatic transmission is another victim of the overdrive servo-bore issues; in fact the casing actually broke where the clip holds the servo and its guts poured out.
I've now removed the old transmission, ordered a used casing (with servo bore bushings installed) and a rebuild kit. I'm now looking forward to doing the transplant.
I'm looking for info on the process, i haven't found much other than someone reference a "manual" (I at least know Haynes has a generic Ford transmission manual). Or maybe I can do it without a book? I've changed the bands on my older explorer without one... but I realize this is a little more involved.
Instructions or tips are welcome! Also, do you guys know if I'll need a hydraulic press or special tools?
thanks
