The Ford C4 was a three-speed, medium-duty automatic transmission introduced in the 1964 model year and produced through 1986. It featured an aluminum alloy three-piece case (bell housing, main case, and tailhousing). This was significantly lighter than earlier cast iron Cruise-O-Matic designs. It also used a Simpson planetary gearset. It was used with Ford's inline six-cylinder engines and small V8 engines, usually up to 302 in³ (5.0 L).

- The Ford C4 was a three-speed, medium-duty automatic transmission introduced in the 1964 model year and produced through 1986. It featured an aluminum alloy three-piece case (bell housing, main case, and tailhousing). This was significantly lighter than earlier cast iron Cruise-O-Matic designs. It also used a Simpson planetary gearset. It was used with Ford's inline six-cylinder engines and small V8 engines, usually up to 302 in³ (5.0 L). By comparison, the 351 Windsor and 351 Cleveland small and intermediate-block engines were backed by the medium-duty FMX. A few C4s were built with a big-block bellhousing to use with Ford 335 engines, notably the 351M, but these are very rare. The early model C4 (1964-1969) used a .788-inch 24-spline input shaft, which was upgraded in 1970 to 26-spline and .839-inch. The upgrade also included a matching clutch hub of 26-spline. In 1971, Ford went to a 26/24-spline input shaft, meaning the torque-converter side is 26-spline and the clutch hub is 24-spline. It is especially notable as the original automatic transmission option in the Ford Mustang. The C4 was also found with valve bodies requiring a different number of bolts, 8-bolt vs 9-bolt. A 9-bolt valvebody can be used on either case, but a nut & bolt must be used on the valve body in the empty hole, dropping the bolt in from the top and using the nut on the bottom/filter side. Modified C4s remain popular with hot rodders and drag racers due to their simplicity and durability.
