The Ford AOD Transmission is a 4-speed mechanical automatic transmission that is still valued in the performance and vintage automobile communities. The AOD was groundbreaking in lowering operating temperatures, enhancing overall fuel efficiency, and reducing engine wear thanks to its direct-drive lock-up in third and fourth gears. In the 1980s and early 1990s, this transmission came standard on a large number of Ford vehicles with rear-wheel drive, including trucks, sedans, and muscle cars. The AOD is still in demand for rebuilds, restorations, and street performance applications today because of its robust architecture and simple adaptability.
