I thought I had a C4, but the filter says it's a MX. Does anyone have any info on the MX, and do you know why I have a MX when it should be a C4?

If I'm not mistaken '67 was the last year for the fmx in the F-series.

I saw a chart that shows all trans filters at an auto shop, and the MX is different than the FMX. Do you know if this is a good trans or not?

It seems good, but I was hoping to compare it to a C-4 or a C-6 with some specs or experience.

Once again...

FYI: Ford-O-Matic was the first automatic transmission from Ford Motor Company. First introduced in 1950, the Ford-O-Matic evolved into the Cruise-O-Matic in 1958 and the FMX in 1968. This line continued in production until 1980, when the AOD was introduced.

How's that!

Well jd aren't they both transmissions!

The MX's are the Truck versions of the Cruise-O-Matic Hydrostatic Transmission Family.

Built stronger ya'no, with more "PUMPATUDE"...
