ATS 42RLE Transmission Packages, 2003-2006 4.0L Jeep On the Trail or Street, the ATS 42RLE is backed by a 5 Year / 500,000 Mile Warranty. The ATS 42RLE is engineered to hold the power and abuse Jeep owners can throw at it. Substantial increases in clutch pack surface area, line pressure and shift quality provide the reliability Jeep owner's demand.

42RLE Transmission:
The 42RLE transmission that is used in the 2003 to 2012 Jeep was never designed to handle the abuse of aftermarket add-ons such as oversized tires, extreme off-roading, increased power levels, higher gear ratios or towing. The small 42RLE factory transmission also has a very low volume cooling system, the low cooler flow does not allow adequate transmission fluid circulation through the torque converter to properly cool the torque converter during normal driving much less stressful situations such as four wheeling or hauling any additional weight over stock.

The primary hydraulic pump of the transmission is not big enough to support the increased pressures and lubrication that is needed to keep the clutch packs and gearsets alive at higher power levels.
Other design limitations of the 42RLE plague the ability of the transmission to handle much power over stock. The stock torque converter is manufactured using stamped steel parts that make up the lock-up porting of the converter. The converter cover will deflect under power causing the converter clutch to slip under load creating excessive heat and clutch material to shed from the lock-up piston.

The combination of heat and debris from the converter clutch causes transmission failure as the material from the torque converter is flushed into the transmission.

The ATS modified 42RLE has been redesigned to correct all these problems and handle increased power levels of larger displacement engines, supercharged or turbocharged engines, larger tires, or heavy towing. We understand the real-world abuse that this transmission is asked to do in modified applications, so we came up with the fixes for it.

ATS has developed a combined technology utilizing recalibration of the hydraulic circuits inside the transmission, including revamped accumulator rates, reprogramed clutch to clutch apply and release timings, and line pressure rise rate to perfectly match the torque output of the engine. These enhancements, along with other key hydraulic modifications which ATS makes, must be done to ensure the clutch packs have the correct apply and release rates when commanded on or off. As well, the transmission hard parts have many limiting weaknesses which do not allow for increased power levels over stock. Specifically, the light duty shafts and hubs must be addressed.

All these areas are addressed in our transmission to allow for increased power levels and reliability. Here are some of the modifications we do to the 42RLE transmission so it will handle the extreme use that you're looking for.

TruLok Torque Converter:
• Billet torque converter cover
• Heavy Duty Carbon Composite Lock-Up Clutch
• Harden Pump Hub
• Harden Turbine splines
• Stall Speed is better matched to Engine torque curve
• Torrington bearings construction for better thrust load

Inside the Transmission:

Pump Assembly:
The pump body is redesigned to utilize an oversized pump gearset, this provides for increased cooling and lubrication to the torque converter and transmission gearset. This redesign also eliminates the common pump problems that causes premature transmission failure due to excessive heat.

The main pressure regulator circuit is modified to enable a broader range of pressure that can be commanded from the TCM. This allows the pump to lower line pressure when the engine is at low loads and more responsively raise pressure above stock to react with increased engine torque and horsepower levels.
Rotating Clutch Drum Assembly and Clutch Packs:

Clutch modifications are generally one of the most impactive and important items that can be upgraded in any transmission. In the case of the 42RLE transmission, there is little room for additional clutches so modifications must be done to pressure plates providing increased clutch surfaces. All clutch packs are replaced with High performance clutch plates and steel separator plates providing the best friction surfaces available. The problematic Over Drive clutch pack has an increased clutch count maximizing its ability to hold torque.

Valve body:
The valve body is considered the nervous system of the transmission; the valve body is responsible for converting the electrical signals from the TCM into hydraulic actions. The 42RLE uses a non-synchronous, clutch-to-clutch design. This means that the shifts from gear to gear must be timed perfectly thereby releasing and applying a friction clutch to achieve a flawless shift.

Because of the sensitivity of the hydraulic circuits, we heavily modify many areas of the valve body. Hydraulic oil flow is ported to certain clutch packs where additional pressure is needed. The accumulator piston seals have been redesigned to ensure hydraulic pressure integrity.

The accumulator plate is made of high-grade material to compensate for the additional pressure that the accumulator pistons and springs exert during heavy power situations. Also, the ATS 42RLE valve body can be purchased separately and installed in a stock transmission for increased transmission capacity.

Planetary Gearset:
The main planetary gearset is reinforced to prevent the pinion deflection that causes gearset failure.

Case and Pan:
The main transmission case does not require a lot of conditioning aside from a few small hydraulic modifications to allow for proper oil flow. At higher power levels, the transmission case does need to be strengthened. This is a simple fix that is taken care of with the optional heavy-duty cast aluminum transmission pan, which was designed in part to act as a girdle, thus eliminating the flex in the case.
The heavy-duty aluminum pan will clear aftermarket skid plates and the cooling fins allow the transmission to run cooler and it has an oversized drain plug on the side so it can be accessed for easy service.

ATS Auxiliary Transmission Cooler: (Included in Stage 2)
The ATS 42RLE Auxiliary Transmission Cooler Kit is designed to work with your factory-installed transmission cooler. The lower the temperature of the oil in your transmission, the better. With added cooling to combat the heat, you can minimize the risk of the most common transmission failure: overheating.

Features:

  1. Auxiliary cooling that enhances factory transmission cooler
  2. Extends transmission lifetime
  3. Lightweight cooler, heavyweight performance
  4. ATS limited warranty
  5. Fits all 2003-2006 4.0L Jeep Wrangler JK with automatic transmissions

Application:
2003-2006 Jeep 4.0L

Would recommend
Size: 10 sqft
I used this sound deadening material in my car during an audio and interior upgrade, and the difference was noticeable immediately. Road noise, vibrations, and rattling were reduced a lot, especially on the doors and floor panels. The car feels much quieter and more solid while driving now. The material was easy to cut and apply, and the adhesive stuck very well without peeling up. It has a quality feel to it and conforms nicely around curves and tight areas. I also noticed my speakers sound cleaner and have better bass response after installing it. For the price, this sound deadening material is a great value and definitely worth it if you want a quieter ride and better overall sound quality in your vehicle.

Worth it!
Size: 50 sqft
I was worried it wouldn't work as well since it's 50 mil and I thought I got the wrong thing. Nope! Works great. Did all four doors on my 93 civic and I have enough for the floor I think. Solid price. Noise reduced by about 5 decibels hive difference. Very sticky and easy to apply I'm so happy I was able to cover most all of my car. If I need more, definitely buying this since I got so much extra and I thought I would. PS: that five decibel thing is only with the four doors. My firewall is next and then my floor, but it's such a huge difference

Quiet your vehicle noises
Size: 50 sqft
Put this in our high roof van and couldn’t believe how much quieter it was at once. Really cut down on the vibration noise Nice and easy to install just peel n stick. Was also easy to cut with scissors for smaller areas. Seemed to be really nice quality. Didn’t notice any odor.
