e40d ????
I just finished an e40d in a 95 f 150 4x4 and it seems to be all good but it seems that it may be a little slow to hit reverse it seems to take a second or less but it is not instant as forward is. does anyone have any suggestions.

There are a couple of ways to take care of that at the time of the rebuilt. One of which is to remove every other spring in the low piston spring cage. There are a couple other mods that can be done to the valve body separator plate and the internal valve body. Don't have my notes with me at the moment. I will have to take a peak tomorrow to see if I have an easy solution for you. Vince

Ok ntoday I went out and test drove the truck again and the delay to reverse is worse on a cold morning start-up it took about 4 or 5 sec. to engage but after it warmed up it was fine back to a sec. or less. also on the highway in overdrive engage and disengage it will make a quick whine in and out of o.d.. I turned the overdrive off and could not get it to reproduce but it doesnot always do it.
please help

Did you use a reprogram kit such as Transgo's Tugger kit? It ususally cures delays in reverse. I would not remove every other spring from the lo-reverse cage as it will engage very firm. Look at the line mod valve and sleeve assembly. It could be loose in the bore. Also was there a wave plate in the bottom of the reverse clutches? I've seen people leave it out and cause a delay or not have the right clutch clearance. If you replaced the reverse pressure plate, (the thick one on top), there are different thicknesses. Hope this helps.PS, it is true the Ford dip stick readings are not perfect. We add 3/16" above the full mark.
