Thanks for sharing that. It does't make me feel like tearing in to it but if the need arises this will be very helpful. I have never worked on an AT (I did once replace a bearing in a 4-speed trans of my '75 2002) but it seems a project one could tackle given time and space.

92k on the '03 4.4i and it runs strong but one never knows what is next.

Would you mind pointing out the bearing that failed (or posting a picture of it if it is not visible in one of the pics you posted before)?

Thanks.
