5r55e from a 2001 explorer

[DFracing]

Can it be put in a 2002 4.0 sohc ranger. are the electronics the same?

Also, anything to increase strength on said 5r55e? shift kit?

while i have it out of the truck i want to do anything i can to make it a little better.

the only thing you can do to that trany is a shift kit. as far as putting it into a 2002... I think so but wouldn't take my word for it.

There are a few valve body updates that will make it last longer.

I know that they added a intermediate shaft speed (ISS) sensor during the '01 MY. As long as that sensor is on the '01 trans you have, it should swap in place of the '02.

(I found this pic online, the ISS is circled and labeled "what is this for".)
