{"product_id":"category-1-6r140-torque-converter","title":"Category 1 6R140 Torque Converter","description":"The SunCoast Category 1 6R140 Torque Converter is engineered to significantly enhance the performance and reliability of the Ford 6R140 transmission, a robust platform known for its deep first gear (3.97:1) and double overdrive.\n\nThis converter boasts a range of upgrades, including a durable billet cover and furnace-brazed fin construction for superior strength. It features a new Torque Converter Clutch and custom-manipulated turbine and pump angles tailored to customer needs.\n\nThe design specifically targets chronic captive clutch failures often found in stock 6R140 units. Unlike conventional converters, the clutch engages away from the front cover, mating with a steel backing plate that is typically prone to flex. SunCoast's rigid backing plate mitigates this, while the upgraded clutch assembly addresses the weak leaf springs found in OE units that can lead to component damage. This makes the Category 1 converter an ideal replacement for heavy-duty trucks used for towing and demanding work applications where reliability is paramount.\n\nKey specifications include new Torrington thrust bearing construction and precision dynamic balancing to exact tolerances. It is manufactured and tested by American workers in Fort Walton Beach, Florida.\n\nFitment is specific to 2011-2019 Ford F250 and F350 models equipped with the 6.7L Powerstroke engine and the 6R140 transmission. A core charge applies, which is refundable upon inspection and acceptance of the OEM core by SunCoast.","brand":"SunCoast","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52663905812792,"sku":"SUN6R140-CAT1","price":2744.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/687719628.webp?v=1784330684","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/category-1-6r140-torque-converter","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
