Ha. Very true.

I know I myself have been very busy with home life stuff the last few weeks, as well as having returned to work too.

I'm playing catch up here and elsewhere.

Salvage yard 'core' obtained. Now I just have to not be out of town for work for 9 weeks.

Appears to be a 2010, or early 2011 trans as the TC is of a 4 bolt design.

They switched over to a 3 bolt pattern mid '11 production build.

Mine is a 2010 so TC shouldn't be an issue, although the exploded diagram on fordparts.com shows 3 bolts for my VIN, hmm. I was figuring on buying a reman TC anyway, $270 from Ford unless anyone knows of a lower cost or otherwise better option.

Did yours break? If so, what went wrong and how much was the repair? I thought these trans were pretty stout/tough and hold up with high HP/TQ.

The snap ring on the 3-5-R drum failed. Cost me $4900 dollars.

lol, that transmission has been sitting in my garage for for over a year now, I swear I will get around to rebuilding it eventually. On a related note, has anyone dropped a transmission out of one of these on jack stands? Debating if I should pickup a set of quick jacks, as a proper lift is out of the question for my current garage.
