Product Description

This TC Remanufacturing torque converter is specified for Ford E-350 Econoline, Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon, Ford F-250, Ford E-250 Econoline Club Wagon, and Ford F-350 applications listed above. The F49D part number identifies a non lock-up automatic transmission torque converter with a low-stall characteristic, making it a direct-fit service part for the covered Ford truck and van platforms. The milled-flats hub, stud mounting style, and 31-spline configuration are important match points when replacing a worn converter in these vehicles.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Shudder or vibration caused by a worn torque converter
• Slipping or inconsistent engagement during acceleration
• Transmission performance issues tied to incorrect converter stall characteristics
• Fitment problems when replacing a converter with the wrong spline, pilot, or bolt-circle specification
• Noise or drivability concerns from a damaged or fatigued converter assembly

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the transmission’s spline count, pilot diameter, bolt circle, and hub style before installation. Confirm that the vehicle uses a non lock-up converter and match the converter diameter and mounting style to the original unit. Inspect the flexplate, transmission front seal, and related drivetrain components during replacement to help prevent repeat failures. For Ford E-350 Econoline, Ford F-250, and Ford F-350 applications, confirm the exact transmission configuration against the vehicle build data before final assembly.

Quality Assurance

TC Remanufacturing supplies remanufactured transmission hard parts for service replacement use. This F49D torque converter is built to the listed specifications for the confirmed Ford applications.
