WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2005 Ford Explorer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

For component location, refer to TRANSMISSION .

The radial positioning of the input shaft is controlled by 2 bushings in the stator support.
Axial positioning of the input shaft is controlled by the splines in the converter turbine hub and the retaining ring in the overdrive planetary carrier.
