4R70W dipstick

[Steve373]

Can I use the stock explorer transmission dipstick or do you have Chang out to something different.

Thanks

Using a lokar flexible one on mine

I used the stock dipstick and tube on my buddy’s build, but we’re also using stock manifolds. I think using headers is where you may run into issues with the stock dipstick.

I used the Explorer 4R dipstick and have headers. Had to adjust the bends a bit but nothing too radical

I also used the stock tube plus dipstick w/o issue on stock manifolds. Had to tweak a bend slightly, and weld a hold down strap to it, but it fits nicely.

Used an AOD dipstick. Works great and saved 150 bucks.

I used the stock dipstick with shorty headers. No mods. Bolted into the back of the head just like it did on the explorer.

Explorer worked fine for me, With a 351 it did need a new tab since the heads were higher. The Explorer cleared everything even without a body lift.

I used stock on 351 as well with some tweaking, really liked the lokar but couldn’t get happy with how it read. Other than that I thought it was a quality piece. The factory look was nice with the stock one also.

Does anyone have a Ford part number for the stock 4r70w dipstick with the small yellow ring handle at the end? I ordered a E7TZ-7A020-C but it has a "T" shaped handle and is shorter.

Here is the tube alone, Tasca probably has the dipstick as well since you seem to be asking for both?

Just ordered an obsolete oil dipstick tube from them, took 2 weeks to show up, but it worked.
