5R55E Transmission 97-01 version vs 01-05

[firefly1246]

I need to replace the transmission in my father n laws 2003 2WD Sport Trac. It has the 5R55E transmission. I have found many 97-01 explorer 4.0 SHC with 5R55E in 2WD in my local junkyard. I have seen that there are 2 different versions, one that was made from 97-01 and then they must have changed it as there is a different part number for 01-05 5R55E trans. Does anyone know if the 97-01 version will work in the 03 sport trac.

I don't want to put a rebuilt trans in the car and its current trans is toast.

Thanks in advance!!!

Nope the earlier won't work, because the later 01-05 has the extra OSS sensor on that transmission which is needed.
