Automatic Transmission Flexplate for Ford Applications

ATP Parts Z-273 is an automatic transmission flexplate built for Ford trucks, vans, and Mustang applications that use a 164-tooth ring gear and a 14.2-inch outside diameter. It connects the engine to the torque converter and provides the starter ring gear engagement needed for reliable cranking.

Key Features

Part number Z-273 automatic transmission flexplate from ATP Parts
164 teeth for starter engagement
14.2-inch outside diameter
High-quality steel construction for strength and durability
Correct bolt-hole spacing and ring gear tooth layout to match the original part

Detailed Description

The flexplate is a critical link between the engine and automatic transmission. It transfers rotational movement to the torque converter while allowing for the expansion and movement that occur as engine speed changes. Over time, repeated flexing can lead to cracks or shearing, and a damaged flexplate can cause serious drivetrain damage if not replaced. ATP Parts Z-273 is manufactured from steel and built with the correct 164-tooth ring gear and mounting dimensions for the listed Ford applications. This part cross-references Pioneer Automotive Industries FRA-442 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

Cracked flexplate material
Sheared or damaged flexplate sections
Starter engagement problems caused by worn ring gear teeth
Torque converter connection issues
Noise or vibration related to a failing flexplate

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify tooth count, outside diameter, and mounting dimensions before installation. Confirm the transmission and engine combination matches the listed Ford fitment, including the 164-tooth and 14.2-inch specifications. Inspect the torque converter, starter drive, and related fasteners for wear or damage before installing the replacement flexplate. Because a broken flexplate cannot be repaired, replacement is the correct service procedure when cracking or shearing is present.

Quality Assurance

ATP Parts builds this flexplate from high-quality steel and matches the original bolt-hole spacing and ring gear tooth pattern for the listed applications. The part is not SFI approved and does not include an SFI certification sticker.
