Main Components & Functions: Geartrain

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Ford Econoline, 2004 Ford E450 Super Duty, and 2004 Ford Cutaway. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Power is transmitted from the torque converter to the geartrain components through the input shaft and forward clutch cylinder.

By holding or driving certain members of the gearset, four forward ratios and one reverse ratio are obtained and transmitted to the output shaft. The ratios are as follows:

GEAR RATIO

Gear	Ratio
1ST	2.71 to 1
2ND	1.54 to 1
3RD	1.00 to 1
4TH	0.71 to 1
