| Post subject: | Shift kit question |
On another board, a person asked if there was a shift kit available for the 42 rle. I know some guys on here have installed a shift kit. So I told the guy to come over here and check for it. But I don't remember who makes it. And was it only for the 45rfe or do they make one for the 42rle? I was thinking it was Transgo but I looked on their site and they only have one listed for the 45 rfe and the 5-45rfe in the diesel. Any help would be appreciated. If they do make them for the 42 it could be useful for guys with the newer TJs as well. |

Transgo does have one for the 42rle, but its more like a correction kit. I got mine thru APS precision. They also don't list it on their site, i spoke to Wayne at APS directly to order the kit. I haven't installed mine, while the kit is fairly inexpensive, the big cost is professional install (for those who aren't comfortable working on their tranny). Here's the longest thread about it, a search for transgo and 42rle will turn up a couple of more. |

Any trans shop should be able to install the kits for you guys. I did mine myself but it was a mess with fluid everywhere. |

Working on transmissions are messy and thats just part of it getting everything clean and spic & span is always the best. Dirt is always a trannys worst enemy before and after. But some one who braved the challenge deserves respect and kudos. Congatulation. On a side note what does the Shift kit actually acheive , better performance? , better milage?, longer life? I do seem to recall a rodder telling me that the kit tightens everything up and lengthens the life by takeing the slop out and creating better clutch life??? |
