5R110W Transmission

If you are the owner of a Ford Super Duty truck and your truck is in dire need of a transmission replacement, 5R110W must be your choice. This 5R110W TorqShift Transmission is for sale. These units have been thoroughly inspected and tested to ensure superior performance and longevity for your Super Duty repower or replacement project.

The TorqShift Architecture

The 5R110W TorqShift is a fundamentally modern heavy-duty automatic transmission. Compared to the older 4R100 it replaced, the 5R110W brought:

Modern electronic control via Ford’s transmission control module (TCM), with adaptive shift logic that learns driver patterns and adjusts shift points accordingly

Lockup torque converter with electronic clutch control for improved fuel economy and reduced converter slip during sustained towing

Tow / Haul Mode that aggressively holds lower gears, increases torque converter lockup, and provides engine braking on downhill grades

5 forward speeds with the wide-ratio “W” gearset, providing better balance between low-end pulling power and highway overdrive cruising

Higher torque capacity designed to handle the Power Stroke V8 turbo diesel torque output (up to 650 lb-ft from the 6.4L Power Stroke)

Condition and Quality Assurance

Our 5R110W transmissions for sale go through a rigorous inspection process:

Comprehensive Testing: Every 5R110W transmission is evaluated for performance, ensuring it meets our high standards

Certified Quality: Each transmission is verified for functionality before shipping, giving you peace of mind

Key Features of the 5R110W TorqShift Transmission

Advanced Electronic Control System: Allows for precise gear shifting, contributing to the 5R110W’s renowned reliability for heavy-duty truck service

Durable Design: Heavy-duty internals built specifically for Super Duty truck duty cycles, including towing and hauling

Enhanced Performance: Upgrades in sensors and solenoids ensure optimal performance in various driving conditions

Five-Speed Configuration: The transmission is officially a five-speed (with the “W” wide-ratio gearset) and operates with a sixth effective gear position via TorqShift’s second-overdrive logic in some calibrations

Advanced Shift Logic: Uses an electronic control unit (ECU / TCM) to manage shift points and adapt to driving conditions, enhancing performance and fuel economy

Tow / Haul Mode: Designed to optimize transmission performance when towing heavy loads or driving in hilly conditions, with engine braking and aggressive lower-gear holding

Compatibility

Ford Super Duty Truck Models:

Ford F-250 Super Duty: 2003 to 2010 models

Ford F-350 Super Duty: 2003 to 2010 models

Ford F-450 Super Duty: 2003 to 2010 models

Ford F-550 Super Duty: 2003 to 2010 models

Compatible Diesel Engines:

6.0L Power Stroke V8 Turbo Diesel (2003-2007 Super Duty, paired with 5R110W)

6.4L Power Stroke V8 Turbo Diesel (2008-2010 Super Duty, paired with 5R110W)

Compatible Gasoline Engines:

5.4L Triton V8 (2003-2010 Super Duty)

6.8L Triton V10 (2003-2010 Super Duty, Ford E-Series, F-650/750 medium-duty)

The 5R110W transmission is a testament to Ford’s engineering excellence. It is an upgrade from the 4R100 model, designed for better performance, fuel efficiency, and enhanced electronic control. After 2010, Ford transitioned to the 6R140 TorqShift 6-speed for the 6.7L Power Stroke and updated Super Duty applications, but the 5R110W remains the correct transmission for 2003-2010 Super Duty repower projects.

Here, you’ll find the best quality used 5R110W transmission for sale at a very reasonable price.

Signs You Need a Replacement 5R110W

Slipping in any forward gear or reverse under load

Failure to engage 5th gear (overdrive)

Tow / Haul Mode not engaging properly

Lockup torque converter clutch (TCC) failing to engage or apply

Hard or harsh shifting that diagnostic codes confirm is mechanical

Fluid leaks at the valve body, output shaft, pump area, or rear seal

Burnt or contaminated transmission fluid (Mercon SP discoloration, debris, smell)

Donor Super Duty totaled and the transmission is being moved to another chassis

Maintenance Tips

Regular Fluid Changes: Maintain Mercon SP ATF levels per Ford service schedule. Heavy duty / towing service typically requires more frequent service than light duty (15,000-30,000 mile severe service interval).

Routine Inspections: Periodic checks of pan magnet for debris, dipstick fluid quality, and external leak indicators.

Use Mercon SP fluid only: The 5R110W requires Ford’s Mercon SP specification ATF. Generic Dexron / Mercon V is NOT cross-compatible and will damage the transmission.
Transmission cooler: Verify the OEM transmission cooler is functioning properly, especially for towing applications. Aftermarket auxiliary coolers are recommended for heavy tow service.

FAQs

What’s the difference between 5R110 and 5R110W?

The “W” in 5R110W refers to the wide-ratio gearset configuration optimized for heavy-duty truck duty cycles. This is the standard production designation for the Super Duty TorqShift. References to “5R110” without the W are typically informal abbreviations for the same transmission. There is no separate non-W version in regular Super Duty production.

What additional components are needed for installation?

For optimal performance, consider additional components when purchasing a used 5R110W: (1) Performance torque converter if your application includes heavy towing or built engine output, (2) Auxiliary transmission cooler for heavy-tow applications, (3) Rebuild kit for high-mileage cores, (4) Mercon SP ATF (5+ quarts to fully refill the system, plus extra for cooler lines and torque converter).

Availability of the 5R110W Transmission for sale?

Yes, we have multiple Ford 5R110W TorqShift transmissions in stock, sourced from 2003-2010 Super Duty truck donors with various engine pairings (6.0L Power Stroke, 6.4L Power Stroke, 5.4L Triton, 6.8L V10).

What’s the price of the 5R110W Transmission?

$2,899.00 for this listing (SKU 88). Genuine Ford reman 5R110W transmissions run $4,800 to $7,500. Independent reman runs $3,500 to $5,200. Our used 5R110W with full inspection represents excellent value for Super Duty repower projects.

What type of transmission fluid does the 5R110W use?

The 5R110W transmission requires Mercon SP automatic transmission fluid (ATF). It’s crucial to use the correct type of fluid as specified by Ford to maintain optimal performance and longevity. Do NOT substitute Dexron, Mercon V, or generic ATF, the 5R110W’s friction surfaces are calibrated specifically for Mercon SP. Using incorrect fluid will cause shift quality issues and premature wear.

How often should I change the transmission fluid in a 5R110W?

Ford recommends changing the transmission fluid in the 5R110W every 30,000 miles under severe use conditions (towing, hauling, dust environment) or as recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. Regular fluid changes help maintain proper lubrication and cooling, especially important for the 5R110W’s lockup torque converter clutch and electronic shift solenoids.

What is the towing capacity of vehicles equipped with the 5R110W transmission?

Vehicles equipped with the 5R110W transmission, particularly Ford Super Duty trucks, have substantial towing capacities. Depending on the model and configuration, towing capacities can range from approximately 10,000 lbs to over 24,500 lbs, especially with the 6.4L Power Stroke diesel engine option in F-450 / F-550 chassis with appropriate gooseneck or 5th-wheel hitches.
