PML designed this deep pan to help the TorqShift transmission better handle the high stresses of towing and hauling. It fits the 5R110 automatic transmission used in the F250, F350, F450, F550, E350, and E450 with these engines:

• 2003-2007, some 2008 and newer, with 6.0 Power Stroke diesel
• 2005-2007, some 2008 and newer, with 5.4 V8 and 6.8 V10

For 2008 and newer Ford Trucks: Ford added a new style of transmission pan and filter in 2008. The new style has a larger transmission pan and a filter that is internal, located inside the pan. 2008 and newer vehicles can have either the a "new style" transmission pan with an internal filter or the "old style" pan with an external filter. Please check which you have before ordering.

External Filter Style Pan
Pictured at left is the old style stock pan and external filter. If you have an external spin-on transmission oil filter near the bell housing (as shown), this PML pan, part number 9973, is for you.

The Ford logo is on the side.

Internal Filter Style Pan
Pictured at left here is the new style stock pan. It is larger to accomodate an internal filter. If you have this larger pan with internal filter, PML's new TorqShift transmission pan, part number 11049, is for you.

The Ford logo is in the middle.

Excursion owners: some models of the Excursion have clearance issues and cannot accomodate a deeper pan. Please check your vehicle before ordering.

This transmission pan has two possible locations for a temperature sensor. There is a boss on the driver's side (visible on the right side of the as-cast image) and there is a boss on the passenger's side opposite the drain hole. These do not come machined.

The pan has cast-in filter supports. (Click on image at left to view larger picture in a separate window.)
