C4 Transmission

The C4 Transmission is one of Fords most iconic automatic gearboxes, introduced in the mid-1960s to serve lightweight performance cars and everyday vehicles alike. Designed as a three-speed automatic, it quickly earned a reputation for simplicity, durability, and efficiency. The C4 Transmission features a compact aluminum case, making it lighter than many contemporaries, which helped improve vehicle balance and acceleration. Its straightforward hydraulic control system contributes to consistent shifting and easy maintenance. Even decades later, it remains a popular choice for classic restorations, drag racing builds, and custom projects.
