To replace the valve body pressure shift spring in a 2001 Lincoln LS transmission, first, ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and securely raise it. Remove the transmission pan and filter to access the valve body. Carefully detach the valve body from the transmission, noting the position of all components. Replace the old pressure shift spring with the new one, reassemble the valve body, and reattach the transmission pan and filter, ensuring all seals are properly in place. Finally, refill the Transmission Fluid and test the vehicle for proper operation.

It is a small piston in the transmission with a spring on one side. It takes oil into it and slows the application of an element and has a reserve of oil under pressure to slow the release of the element.
It is the part of the transmission that controls gear shifts. It contains the spring and valves/solenoids that control the trans. operation. It has passages that the transmission fluid flows thru to apply pressure to the clutch packs.
There is a spring loaded tensoner pulley you need to move (wrench or socket) to release the pressure . It will easily come off then . Install the same way . There should be a decal under the hood showing the correct installation
The coil springs are not easy to remove or install. The spring needs to be compressed in order to be removed. It takes several hundred pounds of pressure to compress the spring.
Bag the air bags. Replace with a spring conversion kit. No more headaches!
well no you would have to take the tire off and put a spring compressor on the spring then you could take off the shock you can rent a spring compressor for auto part place
Yes, and you can also replace the air ride system with a standard spring/shock type system and solve all the problems you may have in the future with the OEM system for a little over $200. Click the link.
When the clutch is engaged, the diaphragm spring in a clutch assembly typically takes on a dished shape. This allows the pressure plate to release the clutch and engage the transmission smoothly.
inside the tranny on the solenoid pack. you have problem with broken spring in the valve body... it's about $700 job...
The spring is on the door. It doesnt look like a spring but if you push on the end it will spring back. it should be one screw holding it in place. normally a small star key. I had to replace mine and it works fine now. I went to the junkyard to get it for about $2.00
