4R70W, ’98-Later Identification

The valve body stiffener plate in the 2-3 accumulator area was eliminated on ’01-later Ford 4R70E, 4R70W, 4R75E and 4R75W transmissions. Sonnax adds a custom 2-3 accumulator support plate on these valve bodies. The addition of this plate eliminates separator plate cracking and cross-leaking.
