How To Prepare For 4r70w Transmission Installation On Classic FordWe are pulling out the Ford C4 Transmission from the 1969 Fairlane station wagon and putting in a 4R70W. There is very little information on how to put an Automatic Overdrive in the Ford Fairlane Torino Mercury Montego Comet so we sift through the issues and show what you need to know to put an 4R70W from Monster Transmissions www.monstertransmission.com into a Classic Ford Torino Fairlane Montego Comet. This week we are taking the time to investigate what will go into the install of the AOD.

Building a Custom Cross Member For Ford We build a custom crossmember to fit our 4R70W. Most Falcon Fairlane Torino and Comet Montego built between 1966 and 1971 were equipped with the C4 automatic. The AOD and 4R70W would probably use a C6 Four Speed cross member. While maybe more appropriate, we use the C4 transmission mount to achieve the same result without spending all the money on a good used C6 automatic cross member.
