Shift Kit; For 604-VLP, 40-TES, 41-TES, 42RLE-VLP Transmissions
This TransGo 42RLE-VLP SHIFT KIT® Valve Body Repair Kit fits 2006 and newer Chrysler, Dodge, Ram and Jeep vehicles equipped with the 42RLE-VLP, A604-VLP, 40TES, 41TES and 41TE-VLP automatic transmission with variable line pressure solenoid and sensor. Common complaints with this transmission are TCC slip or shudder and P0740, overheating, delayed forward or reverse, 4-3 coast downshift clunk as well as 2-1 coast downshift clunk.
First, we have the valve body generated complaints. The TCC slip or shudder, code P0740, overheating as well as the converter drain-back complaints are associated with wear in the pressure regulator valve and TCC regulator valve bores. The new USA made drop-in pressure regulator and TCC regulator valves with extended lands will resolve these complaints without reaming or machining the bore.
Then there are the internally generated complaints. The 4-3 coast clunk is the result of a malfunctioning underdrive clutch inner piston seal. The kit provides a specially designed tuff seal and expander wire to address this complaint. The delayed engagement forward or reverse and the 2-1 coast downshift clunk is an age associated complaint that sets in when the low-reverse piston housing gasket shrinks and begins to leak. TransGo engineered a special gasket for this application made from a non-shrinking material.
Features & Benefits:
The kit includes a drop-in hardened steel pressure regulator valve as well as a redesigned TC regulator valves for a quick no-hassle install. Both the redesigned drop-in steel PR valve and TC regulator valve, feature longer lands which restores the hydraulic integrity of the circuit by utilizing previously unused and therefore unworn areas of their bore. Furthermore, the longer lands increase bore longevity by redistributing the load over a greater surface area. The kit also includes a low/reverse piston housing no-shrink gasket as well as TransGo engineered accumulator piston seals and expander wires (for use with aluminum accumulator pistons only) and the special tuff seal for the underdrive clutch piston. Lastly, the kit also includes accumulator spacers to make the releasing clutch exhaust faster, resulting in shifts that are shorter and cleaner.
Corrects/Prevents/Reduces:
TCC slip or shudder
Code P0740
Overheating
Delayed or no forward or reverse due to converter drain-back
4-3 or 2-1 coast downshift clunk
Includes:
Non-Shrinking low/reverse piston housing gasket
(4) High temperature accumulator seals and expanders (for aluminum accumulator pistons only)
(3) Large accumulator spacers
Small accumulator spacer
(2) TCC control accumulator springs
(2) TCC control valve springs
Drop-in USA-made hardened steel PR valve and calibration spring
Drop-in USA-made hardened steel TC regulator valve and calibration spring
Self-expanding Tuff™ underdrive seal and expander wire
Tech Note: When working on VLP units, before road testing, be sure to reset line pressure counter, clear codes and do a quick learn. Additionally: 42RLE with VLP built before April 28 2008 should have the PCM flashed with the latest software. Low speed partial apply TCC operation is greatly improved with software update.
TransGo Shift Kit vs. Reprogramming Kit
Shift Kit® -- DESIGNED FOR DURABILITY
TransGo Shift Kit® valve body repair kits correct, prevent and reduce multiple transmission problems such as shift irregularities and durability issues. These kits are designed for normal everyday use and light duty towing.
Reprogramming Kit -- ENGINEERED FOR PERFORMANCE
TransGo Reprogramming Kit™ valve body performance kits are made for Heavy Duty and/or Performance applications, and include additional features such as:
Gear Command™: Allows full control of downshifting and will hold any gear to any RPM. Retains automatic up shifts in the drive position. Certain units allow manual up shifts on driver command.
Manual Shift Control: This feature fully converts the valve body to manual/stick shift operation – no automatic shifts. Most Manual Shift Control kits also allow you the ability to easily convert back to automatic.
Tuneless: Patent-pending internal calibration technology “tuneless” allows install without the need for additional transmission tuning software or programmers.
Was ist ein Schaltungssatz?
TransGo Shift Kit® Ventilkörper-Reparatursätze sind eine Kombination aus neuen und überarbeiteten Komponenten, die hauptsächlich im Ventilkörper, manchmal aber auch in der Pumpe oder sogar im Getriebe selbst eingebaut werden. Diese Kits beheben eine Vielzahl von typischen Problemen und Schwachstellen, die sich je nach Getriebemodell unterscheiden, wie z. B. die üblichen Verformungen und Abnutzungserscheinungen, und ermöglichen oft, dass ein Getriebe mit höherer Laufleistung besser funktioniert als ein neues. Typische Bestandteile eines Ventilkörper-Reparatursatzes sind Federn, Ventile, Rückschlagkugeln, Dichtungen, Trennplatten, etc..
