The VIN Pictured is for a 2.7l.is it possible the 10R60 would be for the smaller engine and the 2.7 would get the 10R80?

Here's a door sticker for a Ranger. Code U on the trans. 10R80.I also just noticed that the transmission codes provided were from an Explorer owners manual... Those codes are vehicle specific and likely represent something completely different for the Bronco.
Isn't it usually the driver that has the ability to control the smoothness of the shift?Apparently the 10R60 shifts drastically different than the 10R80 - and in a positive manner. The 10R60 is not slushy, jerky, laggy or clunky when it downshifts. In fact, you can barely tell that it's downshifting when coming to a stop and there's no jerkiness. So, we got that going for us!

Not saying it’s the case here but studies have shown Wikipedia is around 94% accurate.@brown I saw the same list but I am suspicious of wikipedia and random internet posts.
In the past Ford has used the torque figure to represent maximum input. However with the 10 speed it appears the torque number is for the expected torque. Or nominal amount. Look at the f350 diesel using a 10r140I would have simply assumed the 10R80, because the 60 leaves virtually no overhead for tuning, and manufacturers generally don't install transmissions right up to the limit of their specifications (442ft lbs for the 60). 27 ft lbs of overhead for the 2.7? Even with this overwhelming evidence it's hard to believe Ford could be so careless.
They have these new fangled contraptions now, it does whatever it wants regardless of what you want. I think it's called an autotragic or something.Isn't it usually the driver that has the ability to control the smoothness of the shift?
I am not saying either way just that I am suspicious of Wikipedia's listing that the Bronco gets the R1080. How does wiki know if we can't seem to find anything definitive from Ford on the subject. Ford seems to be very careful about excluding the specific transmission models which seems odd given some of the other details they share. Like maybe this is not a bragging point so let's not talk to much about it.Not saying it’s the case here but studies have shown Wikipedia is around 94% accurate.
The issue is the ability to change info, screen shot it, then it gets changed back.
https://www.livernoismotorsports.com/product/LPP631160I'm doubting this simply because the 2.7 with the performance pack would exceed the torque rating of the 10R60.

What a tuner will do does not reflect what Ford is willing to do.
