Specifications
The 42RLE transmission is a robust, electronically controlled 4-speed automatic transmission manufactured by Chrysler from 2003 to 2012 for rear-wheel and four-wheel-drive applications. Commonly found in vehicles such as the Jeep Wrangler, Jeep Liberty, and select Dodge Ram trucks, it was engineered to balance everyday drivability with the strength required for towing and off-road performance. Featuring a non-synchronous, clutch-to-clutch design, the 42RLE transmission eliminates traditional bands in favor of electronically coordinated clutch packs, delivering precise shift timing, improved efficiency, and smoother gear transitions under varying load conditions. Its fully electronic control module continuously monitors throttle input, vehicle speed, and operating conditions to optimize performance and responsiveness. Β
Built for durability in demanding environments, the transmission requires strict use of ATF+4 fluid to maintain proper hydraulic pressure, cooling, and clutch integrity, helping prevent premature wear and internal damage. With its proven reliability and compatibility across multiple Chrysler platforms, the 42RLE remains a dependable replacement or upgrade option for drivers seeking factory-level performance and long-term serviceability.
