TransGo SHIFT KIT® Valve Body Repair Kit for TF Overdrives (1988-2003) Gas and Diesel

Product Overview:
This TransGo TFOD-Diesel SHIFT KIT® Valve Body Repair Kit is designed for 1988 to 2003 Dodge, Ram, and Jeep vehicles equipped with the A518, 46RH, 46RE, A618, 47RH, and 47RE TorqueFlite four-speed automatic transmissions with gas or diesel engines. Note that this kit is not compatible with the 48RE transmission or 2003 Dodge trucks with an 8th VIN code of ‘C’. Common issues with these transmissions include TCC slip or shudder, 2nd gear band failure, direct clutch failure, and torque converter drain-back.

Features and Benefits:

• The kit includes valve body and internal components engineered for higher operating pressures, providing MAX main line pressure of up to 125 psi in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gear, and up to 150 psi in 4th gear or lock-up.
• These enhanced pressure specifications significantly increase the torque capacity of all friction elements, including the TCC clutch, making the kit ideal for heavy-duty work trucks and towing applications.
• The kit ensures a new driving experience with short, clean shifts without harshness, bangs, or clangs, while maintaining OE shift timing for optimal engine power curve.
• Innovative components like the line-to-converter feed system help keep the unit cooler, extending the life of the TCC clutch.
• Includes a TransGo-pioneered manual valve to reduce overnight forward and reverse delayed engagement due to torque converter drain-back.
• The kit can be installed with the transmission still in the vehicle, though internal sealing rings are provided if the transmission is on the bench for an overhaul.

Corrects/Prevents/Reduces:

• TCC slip or shudder
• Converter drain-back reduction
• 2nd band failure
• 3rd clutch failure
• Increased torque capacity for TCC and clutch elements
• Improved TCC engagement feel
• Short, clean shifts

Kit Includes:

• (3) High-temp low-shrink sealing rings
• Lower 1-2 accumulator spring
• Case orifice plug
• Front servo return spring
• Throttle valve spring (for optional later upshifts)
• Part throttle body transfer plate, pin, and two detent limit valve springs
• Mumbly peg (for easy detent spring and ball installation)
• USA-made hardened steel manual valve with converter charge in park provision and cherry bomb
• (3) 3-4 accumulator springs and plug for accumulator housing
• Transfer plate, tapered plug, spring, check ball, and limit bushing
• (2) 3-4 quick fill valve springs
• Main valve body separator plate
• Solenoid body plate
• Boost valve bracket and optional tuning plate
• PR valve shim, spring seat, and inner spring for line-to-converter feed provision, as well as outer spring for increased pressure
• (2) Drill bits
