Yup. Good call. That’s where I ordered from too.

I will be reusing the existing gasket. It is designed to be reused. The plastic transmission pan is a disposable item, but people reuse them as well.

I'm trying to chase down any Ford documentation that the pan should be discarded. So far I've only found the assertion it's a one-time use part on PPE's site promoting their aluminum replacement.

Does anyone have a source of Ford service procedures that explicitly says not to re-use the plastic pan?

You'd think Ford would be all about branding a PPE pan with a 'Ford Performance' logo and selling a crapton.

Other than PPE, where did you see mention of it being a one-time-use?

This just shows, clean and inspect and reinstall.

They specifically call out the filter and gasket as being reusable as well. Ford loves their throw away parts, so if it were the case, they'd clearly call it out.

Yes, the Filter is reusable - If not excessively contaminated with debris
Yes, the pan gasket is reuseable if not damaged

The Pan is Inspect and reinstall, no mention of discard and install new with pan or hardware.

Now since the manuals do not specify what to inspect, you want to focus on has the pan ever been hit on the bottom of the pan - Scrapes, Gouges Etc
Inspect the flanges of the pan for deformities or cracks Etc. that could affect the mating surface of the gasket.

But for me if I am pulling the pan, I am replacing the Filter and Gasket, it is not one of those procedures that I want to do over again all because I skipped a step to save money and be saying to myself I should of did that, now I have to pull it apart again - if it is leaking or shifting erratic.

Installed mine yesterday. The truck only has 20K on it so I reused the gasket and left the original filter. The only pain (literally) was the friggin stupid dipstick. Ended up using a welding glove to reach up between the catalyst and the trasnmission to make sure the fluid was up to spec.

I got mine at extreme diesel parts.

I called them and they gave me 15% off and free shipping.
Here's the part number of mine. I reused the gasket and replaced the filter. Although I was at 60K.

Get an MBS Dipstick (Fitz Stick). Accurate and installation is simple enough.

Definitely on my list. That is when my bank account recovers. Love my truck but the toy budget, sheesh!

Yeah, I know...

Ordered my HD PPE pan today including gasket, filter and seal for filter. My truck has 23,000 on it. I’m going to be using Amsoil ATF High Efficiency synthetic. I also have already purchased the dipstick upgrade from Fitz so I’ll be doing that at the same time. Got my pan on Amazon for $189

Make sure that the fluid meets the Specifications of the transmission. If it does not meet them then it will cause problems. This rule applies to ALL Transmissions regardless of Male and Model.

I would urge caution on that fluid. As far as I'm aware, Amsoil does not make a ULV compatible fluid. All of theirs are thicker at operating temp, which is not necessarily a good thing.

Certainly report back if you do. I'm interested in what effect it has on shift timings in the box.

Never been a Scamoil guy and never will be. It is all over priced for what it is to begin with. Also you really have to be careful if it doesn't meet specifications
