Any recommended parts I will need to pull this off. I already put the Euro torque converter in a few years ago.

You will need... the pump.

Assuming you buy the MOPAR part it will come with a replacement seal.

I guess you'll need some RTV to reseal the pan.

You'd be foolish not to replace the RMS while you're there. Might consider the trans mount at the same time. You might also want to replace the flex plate bolts as I've read several people have had them shear off. If you replace the RMS, you need to replace the flex plate bolts as they're TTY.

A front pump assembly which is a must, a TransGo kit is highly recommended along with new filters and ATF+4 fluid... :wink:

As thesameguy recommended, a RMS and rear transmission mount would be a good addition while the tranny is being R&Red...

RMS = solenoid pack? I googled to no avail

No worries. I hear ya. Sometimes the acronyms we all commonly use boggle me for a while.

We all need a Jeep/CRD acronym index at times! :ROTFL:

Thanks guys, I will do the RMS as well. So no gaskets needed for the front pump?

So what is the job like for changing the RMS, I have the set of miller tools in 4 tool boxes, so I should have the tool for doing this?

I took mine to a good friend who owns and runs a great local transmission shop and let him install my Suncoast TC, front pump assembly, and a TransGo kit along with checking out all other internal components while he had it out to see if it needed anything else, which luckily it did not... Absolute best money I spent!!! :wink:

(He has done work for me along with jobs for several friends in the past and has a very good record)

I am not comfortable working on late model computer controlled transmissions; just way too many variables on these transmissions that can go wrong if doing it yourself!
Not that it cannot be done; I just feel it is better left to an expert that has plenty of experience, the correct tools, and current diagnostic equipment.... :2cents:
