Transmission shops, rebuilders, and aftermarket distributors are paying closer attention to late-model Ford platforms this year. And for good reason. Demand for dependable transmission hard parts and rebuild components continues to grow as more 10-speed Ford trucks and performance vehicles stay on the road longer and rack up higher mileage.
At GFX, we keep an eye on what transmission professionals are asking for every day. We hear what distributors need on their shelves. We hear what rebuilders struggle to source quickly. Most importantly, we understand how critical product quality and availability are when your customers depend on fast turnaround times.
This month, GFX is expanding its automatic transmission and performance product lineup with three new releases built for some of Ford’s most active transmission platforms. These additions support rebuild shops, transmission specialists, and aftermarket suppliers working with the 10R60, 10R80, and 10R140 transmissions found in modern Ford trucks and SUVs.
The latest GFX transmission parts include an upgraded aluminum oil pan for the 10R60 and 10R80 platforms, along with new friction and steel clutch packs for the heavy-duty 10R140 diesel transmission. Each product is designed to support reliability, performance, and long-term serviceability.

Ford’s 10R60 and 10R80 transmissions continue to dominate the late-model truck and SUV market. You can find these transmissions in a growing number of Ford vehicles, especially high-volume applications like the Ford F150 and Bronco lineup.
As these vehicles age and accumulate mileage, transmission shops are seeing more service work related to overheating, fluid contamination, and cracked or damaged factory plastic pans. That is where the new GFX #334681 aluminum deep oil pan comes in.
This product replaces the factory plastic oil pan with a stronger aluminum design built for durability and improved heat management.
Plastic transmission pans may reduce manufacturing costs for OEMs, but they can become a long-term weakness in real-world driving conditions. Repeated heat cycles, towing demands, off-road use, and exposure to road debris can all increase the risk of warping or cracking over time.
The GFX aluminum deep pan gives rebuilders and service shops a stronger option when replacing worn factory components.
Another key advantage is added fluid capacity. The GFX #334681 pan increases oil capacity by approximately 1.75 quarts. More transmission fluid can help support temperature control under demanding driving conditions, especially for trucks used for towing, hauling, or performance applications.
Transmission heat remains one of the biggest factors affecting automatic transmission longevity. Higher fluid capacity helps improve thermal stability and can reduce stress on internal components during heavy use.
That is particularly important for Ford truck owners who use their vehicles for work or recreational towing.
The deeper aluminum construction also supports better durability compared to factory plastic assemblies. Shops looking for dependable upgrade options now have a solution that combines functionality, serviceability, and stronger construction.
For distributors and warehouse suppliers, products like this are becoming increasingly important because late-model transmission service work is steadily increasing across the aftermarket.
GFX #335801 FRICTION PACK 10R140
Product Overview
GFX #335801
Application:
FRICTION PACK – 10R140
Ford 2020-Up
29 Piece Diesel Set
Make: Ford
Years: 2020-Up
OEM #: N/A
Heavy-duty diesel trucks place enormous stress on automatic transmissions. Torque loads are higher. Towing demands are tougher. Heat levels increase quickly under sustained workloads.
That is exactly why clutch friction materials matter so much in modern diesel transmission rebuilds.
The GFX #335801 friction pack is designed specifically for Ford’s 10R140 transmission used in 2020 and newer diesel applications. This 29-piece friction set supports rebuilders working on one of Ford’s most demanding transmission platforms.
The 10R140 transmission was engineered for high-torque diesel applications, especially in Super Duty trucks. These transmissions are commonly used in commercial fleets, towing vehicles, and heavy work trucks where reliability is critical.
When friction materials wear down, transmission performance suffers quickly. Slipping, delayed shifts, overheating, and clutch failure can all follow.
That is why rebuild shops pay close attention to friction pack quality during overhauls.
The new GFX friction pack helps transmission rebuilders restore clutch performance and maintain holding capacity inside the transmission assembly. For shops servicing diesel work trucks, dependable clutch materials are not optional. They are essential.
As towing capacity expectations continue to rise in the truck market, transmission components must handle increasingly demanding operating conditions. Drivers are asking more from their vehicles than ever before.
Transmission rebuilders know that cutting corners on friction materials can lead to repeat failures and customer dissatisfaction. Using quality rebuild components helps reduce those risks.
GFX #335810 STEEL PACK 10R140
Product Overview
GFX #335810
Application:
STEEL PACK – 10R140
Ford 2020-On
28-Piece Diesel Set
Make: Ford
Years: 2020-Up
OEM #: N/A
Steel clutch plates play a major role inside any automatic transmission rebuild. They work directly alongside friction materials to create the clutch engagement necessary for smooth and reliable shifting.
In high-torque diesel applications, these components face significant heat and pressure during operation.
The new GFX #335810 steel pack is designed for the Ford 10R140 diesel transmission platform and includes a 28-piece set for rebuild applications.
When rebuilding a transmission, replacing worn steels is critical for maintaining proper clutch clearances and engagement quality. Reusing damaged or heat-spotted steel plates can lead to poor performance, uneven wear, or premature failure.
That is why rebuilders typically replace both friction and steel components together during major overhauls.
The GFX #335810 steel pack supports shops performing complete transmission rebuilds on late-model Ford diesel trucks. It gives rebuilders access to replacement steel plates designed specifically for the 10R140 platform.
As more heavy-duty Ford trucks move beyond warranty periods, rebuild activity for these transmissions is expected to continue increasing across the aftermarket.
Distributors who stock complete rebuild support products position themselves to better support transmission specialists and diesel repair facilities.
How These Components Fit Into Transmission Service and Rebuilds
Modern automatic transmissions are more complex than ever before. That includes Ford’s 10-speed transmission family.
Today’s rebuilders face tighter tolerances, advanced valve body systems, electronic controls, and increased thermal demands compared to older transmission platforms. Because of this, transmission shops rely heavily on dependable aftermarket replacement components.
Products like the GFX aluminum oil pan, friction packs, and steel packs help support critical areas of transmission reliability and serviceability.
For example:
- Aluminum transmission pans can improve durability and fluid capacity
- Friction materials help maintain clutch holding performance
- Steel plates support proper clutch engagement and heat resistance
- Rebuild components help extend transmission service life
- Quality replacement parts reduce the risk of repeat repairs
These products also align with current trends in the automotive aftermarket industry.
Vehicle owners are keeping trucks longer. Commercial fleets are focused on reducing downtime. Repair shops need access to dependable inventory without long delays.
That means distributors and suppliers must stock products that solve real service challenges.
At GFX, product development focuses on supporting those real-world transmission repair needs. We understand that rebuilders need parts that arrive quickly, fit properly, and perform consistently under demanding conditions.
That is especially important in the diesel and truck transmission market, where downtime directly affects productivity for vehicle owners and businesses.
