It seems that factory torque converter is not available anywhere in US or Canada(RL037142AA). My jeep is not driveable because of TC failure and I need to find good replacement ASAP. Does anybody can forward me to the right direction or may have one for sale? Thank you all in anticipation.

ribak that PN is for the "Euro" TC as a remanufactured unit and DCJ has relatively recently placed an export only restriction on it. Your choices are:
1. go with the "F-37" TC which should be available new from DCJ or used - adequate but not great
2. go after market - SunCoast with your current unit as a core or find a TC shop that will rebuild your current TC with beefer springs
3. see if someone can "reimport" a Euro TC - you might touch base with IDParts or check with a European member such as Lancer (London) or Topan (Geneva) or maybe even kapalczynski (current duty station Alice Springs)
