Contrary to what alldata says, partsamerica lists the 4T60E as 93 and up on the 3800, 92 and up for the 3.4, and 93 and up for the 3.1.

 

I believe in 91, only the top end cars got the 4T60E.

No, not really. The only tranny fluid change I did in the 4 years I had it was when the fucking cooler line popped off and emptied the tranny. ( stranded me too ) :lol:

 

Regardless of what some people here say, the 4T60E is not that bad a tranny, especially when you compare it to Ford's of the same era. :leaving:

in '91 the 4T60E was used with the DOHC engines.

 

the biggest difference between the 440T4 and the 4t60E is in the Valve boddies, where as the 4T60/4T60-E depends on vacuum and or electronic connections to control the shifting cycles on the transmission, the 440T4 will use a manual detent (kickdown) cable attached to the throtle body of the engine.

 

or at least that's how I understood it.

I dont htink the 4T60's being bad tranies at all, alot of you guys have over 100k and 15 years into one and fords, especially taraus's dont last even 50k w/o isssues unless ur super easy and replace the fluid constantly, or dodges of that time, they wernt the best on automatics

Wow, a lot of misinformation in this thread.

 

Dave got some of it covered.

 

440T4: 1988-1990.

4T60 (Vacuum controlled; renamed 440T4): 1991-1992 3.1 and 3800.

4T60-E: 1991+ 3.4, 1993+ 3.1, 1993+ 3800

Uhhh why? The 440T4 became the 4T60 in 1991. That's all.

The 440T4 was renamed the 4T60 in 1990. My 1990 window sticker says my car is equipped with a "4T60 with overdrive" transmission.

 

Also, the Turbo 3.1 got the 4T60-HD.

Strange. My GP one said "440T4". Then again, it was a VERY early 1990.

 

No W-body ever got the 4T60e-HD.

 

The 4T60e started in 1991 with the LQ1.
