Introduction:
Welcome to the most advanced 10R140 valve body upgrade kit on the market. This is the single most important upgrade you can perform to a Ford 10R140 transmission, and it can be easily done at home with basic tools using our easy-to-follow instructions. The 10R140 is riddled with highly expensive problems that largely derive from a couple of leaky valves and a set of utterly useless accumulator pistons. This deeply unreliable transmission is an enlarged version of the also tumultuous 10R80 found in vehicles such as the Ford Mustang.
As always, Next Gen Drivetrain™ best-selling drop-in Project Carbon® DIY Valve Body Upgrade Kit are the driving force in providing efficient and inclusive solutions to these evolving transmissions. This kit addresses both the leaky valves and the accumulation leaks with this kit, even going so far as to include a crushing laser-cut separator plate. Best of all, this kit, as with all Project Carbon® valve body upgrade kits, is 100% designed and manufactured in-house!

Frequently Asked Questions about the 10 Speed Ford 10R140 Transmission:
Q: Is the Ford 10R140 a good transmission?
A: Known as a less-than-reliable unit, the 10 Speed Ford 10R140 transmission is a fertile breeding ground for a variety of problems. This includes but is not limited to: Valve body crossleakage, burnt clutches, damaged clutch hubs, stripped shells and much more.
Q: Is there TCM Tuning for the 10 Speed Ford 10R140 transmission?
A: Yes! The 10 Speed Ford 10R140 can be easily tuned to request different shift points, different lockup protocol and various other functional changes. However, most of these parameters do not need to change for the transmission to work optimally. Mechanical upgrades are significantly more important.
Q: What is the lifespan of a 10 Speed Ford 10R140 Transmission?
A: Although there are many variables, the 10 Speed Ford 10R140 transmission lasts an average of 100,000 to 150,000 miles in unmodified trucks with average applications. Trucks with larger tires, tuning, emissions delete systems and other aggravating factors usually fail much sooner. Transmissions with religious maintenance routines that are used largely for highway miles can last longer in some cases.
Q: What is the best upgrade for a 10 Speed Ford 10R140 transmission?
A: The single most important upgrade someone can perform on a 10 Speed Ford 10R140 transmission is a valve body. The valve body is where the overwhelming majority of their problems begin, and can yield huge benefits to any application. All Ford 10R140 transmissions, regardless of application, should have one of our upgraded valve bodies.
Q: What are the service intervals of a 10 Speed Ford 10R140 transmission?
A: It is our advice that this transmission is hot-flushed and a complete fluid and filter change is executed every 25,000 miles on average. Extraordinary applications may want to perform these services more frequently, whereas highway exclusive applications can safely push a bit further between services.
