Remanufactured 6R140 Transmission for Ford Super Duty


The Ford 6R140 TorqShift transmission was engineered for one purpose: handling extreme torque in Super Duty trucks. Found behind both gas and diesel engines, this unit sees hard use every day—towing, plowing, hauling, and fleet service.

While the 6R140 is one of Ford’s strongest automatic transmissions, sustained heat, heavy loads, and high mileage eventually expose weak points in the converter, clutch packs, and valve body. When that happens, partial repairs rarely hold up.

ACE’s remanufactured 6R140 delivers a heavy-duty, install-ready solution built to restore reliability under real-world working conditions—not just light-duty driving.


Built for Towing, Fleet, and Commercial Use

ACE remanufactures the 6R140 with durability as the priority. Every build is designed to withstand sustained load, high temperatures, and long duty cycles.

Key build upgrades include:

  • Heavy-duty torque converter rebuild with improved lock-up clutch material for towing applications
  • Upgraded clutch packs and steels using high-energy friction materials
  • Re-machined pump assembly to restore proper line pressure and flow
  • Valve body reconditioning to correct pressure loss and shift instability
  • New seals, bushings, and bearings throughout the unit
  • Full-load dyno testing to verify shift timing, pressure stability, and converter lock-up

This is not a “freshened” transmission. It’s a complete remanufacture built to handle the same jobs these trucks were designed for.


Common 6R140 Transmission Problems

Shops typically see the following failures on high-mileage or hard-working 6R140 units:

  • Torque converter clutch slip or failure under heavy load
  • Harsh or delayed shifts, especially when cold or under tow
  • Pressure regulator valve wear, leading to low line pressure
  • Overdrive clutch damage from sustained heat
  • Limp-mode activation caused by pressure or temperature faults

ACE addresses these issues at the component level, preventing repeat failures and comebacks.
