    This is the best most detailed vid on youtube showing how to remove this transmission. Outstanding video work and commentary showing every nut and bolt in a logical work flow. Just perfect for the weekend wrencher to learn what would be the magnitude of the work involved to do the job.

    This is a fantastic detailed video. I’m currently underway in removing the transmission out of my 2008 Ford Escape and it’s a big project to handle in the cold out on my back in my garage, I was stuck when I realized I would have to pull the differential out. Didn’t even know what size “external torq socket” to use and have to go buy a set. Thanks for letting us know it was a 14! Great video. I can’t wait to get a new transmission in his car so I can sell it.

    The 4wd cd4e can be pulled without removing the tcase and without touching the exhaust. Takes some careful prying and making sure the tranny is secured to your jack. Saves a lot of time if all you are doing is the tranny.

Is there anything am missing ? I’ve tried adjusting my cable and checked the sensors. You think it might be electrical issue ? Is there any schematics available for this particular transmission.

    I have a ford escape that was rear ended with a rebuilt transmission and good motor that I want to swap both into another escape. Is it easier to take the whole thing out as a unit without splitting it? I'll probably be doing this without a lift, is that possible?

    • @MakeItEasyMechanic
      @MakeItEasyMechanic  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Generally speaking, yes - I would definitely try to pull them out together as one unit. You should be able to pull them out without a lift - as long as there's enough room for the transmission to clear everything coming out through the top.

      Where the passenger axle goes in , it's different. So a pto will not mesh to a fwd transmission. Otherwise they look the same.

      My thoughts exactly. The whole time I was watching this I was thinking back to when I swapped the trans in my 88 Jeep Cherokee. I think the whole job took me less than three hours in the back yard with limited tools and less experience. Local shop wants $3K to put in a used trans & man, I could do it myself over a weekend, but shit I just don't want to :/

      your best bet is to take the car back to the repair facility and describe the issue - have them check their work.
