Shift Kit; For 45RFE, 545RFE, 65RFE, 66RFE, 68RFE Transmissions
This TransGo 45RFE-A Shift Kit® Valve Body Repair Kit fits 1999 to 2018 Chrysler, Dodge, RAM, and Jeep vehicles equipped with 45RFE, 545RFE, 65RFE, 66RFE and 68RFE. These transmissions often have rough lock-up apply, lock-up slide bump apply, TCC slip codes, excessive transmission cooler pressure as well as converter drain-back.
More often than not, this transmission will come in with the TC limit valve bore in the pump that is completely wiped out. It wears out so far that it appears the pump will need replacing. This kit comes with new, innovative drop-in TC limit parts that will restore TC limit system function in both the early and the late design pumps regardless of the amount of bore wear.
Feautres & Benefits:
The kit includes a new drop-in torque converter limit valve system for both early and late pumps, saving the cost of a new pump. It also recalibrates TCC accumulator system for optimum converter clutch apply. Lastly, the included heavy-duty snap ring for underdrive/overdrive pressure plate prevents snap ring blow-out.

Rough lock-up
TCC slide bang
TCC slip codes
Low line pressure code P0868

All About The 45RFE, 545RFE, 65RFE, 66RFE, 68RFE Shift Kit®
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.
What is a Shift Kit?
TransGo Shift Kit® valve body repair kits are a combination of new and re-engineered components that are primarily installed in the valve body, but sometimes the pump or even in the transmission itself. These kits solve a variety of inherent problems and weaknesses that differ by transmission model, including usual warp and wear, often allowing a higher mileage transmission to work better than a new one. Typical components of a valve body repair kit include springs, valves, check balls, gaskets, separator plates, etc.
