well also not to mention that moving forward with the car, the shift cables are long out of production and the last I checked simply not available. I'm just trying to future proof my car. Perhaps I am wrong but I'd expect the rod shift to last many more miles than the cables. also there is a bit of appearance issues for me in my car. with no interior, if I can hide something under the body as opposed to these cables sitting in the...

I guess im missing something here. I understand you have a trans that is built and is set up currently for rod shift. As far as I know you can simply remove the tower and install the later tower. I do not see a difference nor would it hurt the durability of the transmission if you use the focus tower. It seems to me you are going though a ton of time and money to make something work rather then just use the newer design? I guess I understand...

ABS on the Cougar is weird. When I was looking for my 01, I found about twice as many with leather as with ABS, even though it was a similar price option.

If you take out the rear subframe bolts, and loosen the front ones it will allow it to drop down enough to get to those bolts easier. Make sure the tie rod ends are tied up in the wheel wells to hold the rack, and be sure the front and rear roll resistors are removed before you unbolt the rack. That being said, here's a how-to I had typed up for a member awhile ago. Hope this helps....

I was going to say try manually putting it in reverse from the top of the transmission but you already tried that. If that doesn't work than it can be shifter cables adjustment. it's got to be something on or in the transmission. Not really sure what to tell you.

You can find a cd4e (the name of your automatic) rebuilt for as little as $800. I refuse to believe you are getting a used one for cheap enough to justify using a used one... Its a PAIN to swap out this trans. Without "fixing" the runaway line pressure issue, the new trans is likely going to blow just like your old one. If you insist on a used trans.... the transmission code that would ...

95% chances are your forward drum blew the end off. Will require a complete rebuild. Check your fluid levels just to be sure but when you loose forward gears this is usually the cause. If you are from Michigan I can help... Otherwise you are looking at $2000-$3000 for a rebuild.
