Early 99 Help

[2whlfreak]

Does anyone know what the trans code on the door sticker is supposed to be for an early 99 F250 4x4 auto? I have access to a 2000 Ford service manual and they are listed as trans code 9, and my buddies 01 has a trans code 9.

trans codes for all 99-03 superduty trucks should be the same depending on standard/man or possibly 2wd/4wd. Unless you have a f350 (very few) or 450/550 with the PTO.

All 99-03 7.3's with auto's use the 4r100.

I understand that the codes should be the same, but mine is different. Mine has an E where thre should be a 9 . The E designation is 4r100 for gas motors.

Bump, Whats your early 99 auto trans code??

[2whlfreak]

I put this up here a while ago and never really got an answer. So I"ll try again, why would I have a trans designation of "E" (for a gas Motor) where a "9" (for diesel) should be. Could it be possibe thats why I have shifting issues. Maybe the wrong trans was installed, could have been a late friday or an early monday build. HA!

My truck is an early 99 F250 4x4 and the Tr code on mine has an E also. However my truck shifts just fine and acording to the description I have gotten from other people. My tranny is a 4R100. Hope this helps ya.

They are probably all "E" codes on the early 99 trucks. The manual I have starts at 2000 and it states that "9" is the code for diesel trans. I know 5 people with 00 to 01 trucks and the auto trucks all have the 9 code. Thanks for looking for me.

all 4r100's are basiclly the same from the V10, Vans, Gas & diesel. how many miles er on the truck that might be ur first clue. auto's are the weak point in ANY thing.
