Asking prices collected October 22, 2026 from U.S. used-yard listings and remanufacturer catalogs. A snapshot, not a quote.

Each used bar runs from the 25th to the 75th percentile of that version's asking prices, so half its listings fall inside it, and the dot marks the median. The supplier quotes your exact part, shipping and warranty.

Which 4R70W do you have?

4R70W

The original version, used across Ford's rear-drive cars and light trucks. Behind the 5.4L V8 it gets a stronger gearset than in normal-duty units.

Source: Wikipedia: Ford AOD transmission, 4R70W

4R75W

A 2003 revision that was not used on every 2003 model and gradually replaced the 4R70W. In the Crown Victoria it was used only in the 2004 Police Interceptor.

Source: Wikipedia: Ford AOD transmission, 4R75W, Wikipedia: Ford Crown Victoria

4R70E and 4R75E

Later versions designed for electronic throttle control. The Crown Victoria moved to the 4R70E for 2005 and the 4R75E for 2006; the Expedition used the 4R75E for 2005–2006. They are not drop-in swaps for an older 4R70W.

Same family is not the same part. Engines and transmissions in one family can differ in electronics, mounts and accessories. The supplier confirms fit with your VIN before you buy.

Check before you buy a used 4R70W

  • 4R70W or 4R100? A 5.4L F-150 can have either. Standard-load trucks have the 4R70W; Lightning, Harley-Davidson and payload-package trucks have the heavier 4R100. Your VIN settles it.
  • W or E? From 2004–2006 Ford moved to the electronic-throttle 4R70E and 4R75E. Quote the version your vehicle was built with.
  • Match engine and drive. Used-yard listings split the F-150 unit by engine (4.2L, 4.6L, 5.4L) and by 2WD or 4WD, and the Crown Victoria by police package. Give the supplier your VIN.
  • Get mileage, testing and warranty in writing. Ask for the donor vehicle's mileage, how the transmission was checked, the warranty term and the freight cost to your ZIP before you pay.

Known 4R70W wear points

  • In 1998 Ford replaced the 4R70W's intermediate one-way roller clutch with a mechanical diode because of durability concerns. A pre-1998 unit has the older part, so ask which one you are getting. (Wikipedia: Ford AOD transmission, 4R70W)

4R70W questions

How much does a used 4R70W transmission cost?

Used-yard asking prices for a 4R70W typically ran $350 to $3,141 on October 22, 2026. That range runs from the lowest version's 25th percentile to the highest version's 75th percentile, across 9 versions (731 priced listings). Remanufactured units were listed from $2,299 to $2,349 (67 offers). Prices vary by version, mileage and shipping, so the supplier quotes your exact part.

Is a 4R75W the same as a 4R70W?

No. The 4R75W is a 2003 revision that replaced the 4R70W over the following years, and later units moved to the electronic-throttle 4R70E and 4R75E. Quote the version your vehicle was built with and confirm it by VIN.

Which F-150s have a 4R70W?

The 1997–2003 F-150 with the 4.2L V6, 4.6L V8 or standard-load 5.4L V8. The Lightning, the Harley-Davidson edition and payload-package 5.4L trucks use the 4R100, so check your VIN.

Did the Crown Victoria and Grand Marquis use the 4R70W?

Yes, from 1995 through 2004 with the 4.6L V8. The 2005 cars use the 4R70E, and from 2006 the 4R75E.
