Ford 5R110 Transmission Pan Installation Instructions
The TCI Automotive® deep aluminum pan is designed to fit the factory Ford 5R110 transmission as supplied as original equipment. However, in some applications, or because of the use of certain factory options and/or aftermarket equipment, there may be clearance problems between your TCI Automotive® pan and other vehicle components. It is the responsibility of the owner/installer to ensure that there is no contact between the pan and other moving, obstructing or fixed vehicle components. Contact with any vehicle component, or the modifying of the TCI Automotive® pan voids the warranty. TCI Automotive® assumes no liability, expressed or implied, for damage or injury to persons or property.
Installation:
1. Park your vehicle on level ground and apply the parking brake. Use jack stands if the vehicle must be raised.
2. Position a large drain pan under the transmission to catch the fluid. Also drain the torque converter.
3. Starting at the rear, remove the 20 existing pan bolts.
4. Using a gasket scraper, start at the rear of the pan and carefully (so as not to gouge the transmission case) insert between the existing pan and transmission housing and pry the old pan off.
5. Allow all of the old oil to drain.
6. Using a gasket scraper, carefully remove all of the old gasket material (dried silicone) from the transmission case.
7. Use clean lint free rags to clean the transmission case gasket surface. The surface must be clean and flat for the O-ring to seal.
8. Before installing the TCI Automotive® pan, check the gasket mating, surface on the transmission case for dents, irregularities, or gouges. Should any exist, carefully remove the high spots using a smooth flat file. BE CAREFUL NOT TO “ROUND OFF” THE FLAT GASKET SURFACE.
