• AODE or 4R70W transmission with the proper bolt pattern for your engine. • Baumanator TCS • Dipstick tube and dipstick from a ’94-’95 AODE equipped Mustang (may not clear all headers) • Backset transmission crossmember • flexplate from AOD equipped fox body Mustang (imbalance weight must match engine 1968-1980 302 = 28 oz. 1981-2001 = 50 oz.) • shifter cable from 1994-95 Mustang • transmission inspection plate and transmission to engine block separator plate from an AOD equipped fox body Mustang • If the AODE or 4R70W transmission you sourced is from a Mustang it will have the correct shift lever if not, you will need a shift lever from a ’94-’04 Mustang application. Obviously, if you are converting from an AOD you will have most of these components. The other components are listed here in case you are wisely changing from a manual trans to an automatic.
