ROADMASTER FORD 10R80 TRANSMISSION & CONVERTER PACKAGE F-150 5.0L V8 2018-2020

This transmission package corrects the most common failure points of the stock Ford 10R80, including harsh shifting, shift flares, and the leaking CDF clutch drum. It's engineered for greater reliability and longevity in stock or lightly modified trucks. — The BD RoadMaster directly addresses several known weaknesses in the OEM 10R80 transmission. Key upgrades include: — • Leaking CDF Drum: A revised CDF drum is installed with a new retaining feature. This prevents the common sleeve displacement issue that causes pressure loss, leading to long shift delays and burnt clutches. • Valve Body Failure: A brand-new, modified valve body increases line pressure by approximately 30%. This provides greater clutch holding capacity, resulting in faster, more decisive shifts and preventing premature clutch wear. • Torque Converter Shudder: The included BD ProForce torque converter is remanufactured with all-new, upgraded friction material to ensure smooth and reliable lock-up performance. • Heat Management: A deep sump transmission pan is included, which increases fluid capacity by 2 quarts. This extra fluid helps dissipate heat more effectively, extending the life of the transmission fluid and internal components.

This is a complete, ready-to-install package that includes the fully assembled BD RoadMaster 10R80 transmission, a matching BD ProForce torque converter, and a pre-installed deep sump oil pan. — The package with part number 1064624SS is specifically for the 2018-2020 Ford F-150 4WD with the 5.0L V8. Inside the crate, you will find: — • A fully remanufactured 10R80 transmission with a revised CDF drum to prevent leaks. • A brand new, modified valve body that increases line pressure by ~30%. • New OEM clutches and steels, retaining the stock clutch count for OEM-level compatibility. • A remanufactured BD ProForce torque converter with new friction material. • A new deep sump transmission oil pan that adds 2 quarts of fluid capacity, featuring a drain plug and a temperature sensor port for easier servicing.

The RoadMaster transmission delivers smoother and more rapid shifts, eliminating the notorious harshness and delays of the stock 10R80. The result is a significantly improved and more responsive driving experience, particularly for trucks that see daily driving or light towing duty. — The enhanced shift quality comes directly from the package's hydraulic and mechanical improvements. The modified valve body increases line pressure by about 30%, allowing for quicker and more positive clutch engagement, which you'll feel as faster, cleaner shifts. The revised CDF drum eliminates the pressure leaks that cause hesitation and flaring between gears. Finally, the remanufactured ProForce torque converter with its new friction lining ensures shudder-free lock-up. Together, these upgrades create a transmission that feels both more reliable and more refined than the original.

Installation involves removing the stock transmission and torque converter and replacing them with the BD RoadMaster package. The estimated installation time is 13 hours and should be performed by a qualified automotive technician. — While this is a direct-fit replacement, it is a significant job. The process does not require any custom fabrication or electronic tuning. However, it is critical that the transmission fluid cooler and lines are thoroughly flushed before installing the new unit to prevent contamination from old fluid or debris. The transmission is pre-assembled with the deep sump pan, which adds 2 quarts of fluid capacity and includes a handy drain plug. Due to the size and weight, a professional shop with a vehicle lift and a transmission jack is the recommended environment for this installation.
