aod tranny
 
I was wondering if a 2500 non-lock stall converter will work in stock tranny? Do i need a lock-up or a solid input shaft? Thanx alot!!!!

ok i called TCI and they said the non lockup would work if my stock AOD is a non Lockup tranny, so can anybody tell me if Aod trannies are non lockup? Thank you very much

Aod trannys are lock-up unless modified to be non lock-up.

Precision Industries makes non lock-up converters that will work with your factory set-up (no other modifications required), or, if you have a one-piece input shaft (which eliminates lock-up, regardless of converter type) they spline the converter differently. A B&M converter may be cheap, but I dont think it will give you the performance your looking for. Call PI with your questions, they customer service is very helpful and patient. try www.converter.com

Couple problems here. first, you don't need
to give up lock-up to get more stall.
Yes, AOD's do need to be modified to use
non-lock. also, do NOT use a "cheap"
converter - they don't have the torque
multiplication of good converters, as well
as durability problems. I got a 2500 lock-up
from Art Carr and works super. other good
ones are Precision (www.converter.com) and www.levelten.com. for good Ford tech info,
see www.baumannengineering.com. for a superb
in-depth AOD/E article, check www.tccoa.com, their tech articles, trans section - written
by a Ford trans engineer. do some research
and learn about your trans before you start
buying parts based on cost.
