FORD 6F35
GENERATION 1 & 2
The Ford 6F35 is very similar to GM’s 6T40 series due to cooperative engineering between Ford Motor Company
and General Motors, however, very few parts between the 6F35 and 6T40 are interchangeable. The 6F35 has two
design levels, Generation 1 built from 2009 to 2012 and Generation 2 built from 2013 to present. It is important for
the rebuild technician to pay close attention to parts differences between Generation 1 and 2.
One of the major differences between the 6F35 and 6T40 applications is computer location. The TCM for the 6T40
is inside the transmission while 6F35 equipped vehicles are controlled externally.
Hydraulic controls are also different between the 6T40 and 6F35 meaning valve bodies and oil passages will not be
the same. Valve bodies between 6F35 Generation 1 and 2 are also different which indicates the two are not
interchangeable. Solenoid operation and control are also different between 6F35 Generation 1 and 2.
In addition, the transmission cooling systems are different between Generation 1 and 2 and cooler configuration can
also be different depending on model.
This manual will show the disassembly and assembly of both the Generation 1 and 2 transmissions as well as
component differences and transmission specifications. This manual is directed towards the professional
transmission technician, all builder notes and cautions should be adhered to in order to avoid mistakes or personal
injury.

Builders Note: The Generation 2 low/reverse and 1-
2-3-4 center support components are not inter-
changeable. They are different diameters, when
disassembling the center support components,
exercise care to not mix them up.

Builders Note: The steel spacer has a lip to lock the
retaining snap ring in place as seen in figure 258.
Due to this design the snap rings can be installed by
hand when the center support is in the press with the
aid of a screwdriver and a small hammer.
Reverse the disassembly procedure for the assembly

IMPORTANT BULLETIN:
For production years 2009 and 2010 there were
open circuit issues that would appear related to the
output speed sensor. This was a problem with the
lead frame. If the lead frame has Julian numbers
09184, 09185, 09186, 09229, 09230, 09234, 09235,
09236 and 09237, replace the lead frame and the
output speed sensor especially if the vehicle came
in with a P0720 or P0722 output speed sensor code.
The location of the Julian Date is shown in figure
262 below.
