Remanufactured 5R110W Transmission
The 5R110W TorqShift transmission powered Ford Super Duty trucks through some of their hardest-working years. Found behind the 6.0L and 6.4L Power Stroke diesels—as well as select gas applications—this unit was designed for towing, hauling, and commercial duty long before 10-speeds entered the picture.
But age, heat, and heavy load eventually take their toll. Converter clutch failure, valve-body wear, and pressure loss are common once mileage climbs. When that happens, patch repairs rarely last.
ACE’s remanufactured 5R110W gives your shop a fully corrected, heavy-duty solution built to restore reliability in trucks that still earn their keep every day.
Built for Real-World Diesel Work
ACE rebuilds the 5R110W with the same mindset as the shop installing it:
fix the root cause, not just the symptom.
Key build upgrades include:
- Heavy-duty torque converter rebuild with improved lock-up clutch material
- Upgraded clutch packs and steels designed for high torque loads
- Reconditioned valve body to correct pressure loss and cross-leaks
- Updated EPC and solenoid testing to stabilize line pressure
- New bushings, seals, bearings, and thrust washers throughout
- Dyno testing under load to verify shift quality and converter performance
The result is a TorqShift that performs consistently—whether it’s pulling a trailer or running empty.
Common 5R110W Transmission Failures
If you work on Power Stroke trucks, these problems are familiar:
- Torque converter clutch slip under towing or highway load
- Harsh or delayed shifts, especially when cold
- Pressure switch and EPC-related fault codes
- Intermediate sprag failure on high-mileage units
- Overheating, often tied to cooler restrictions or fluid breakdown
ACE addresses these issues during remanufacturing, eliminating the weak points that cause repeat failures.
