When a single worn steel module is the source of clutch slip or harsh engagement in an AW60-40LE unit, replacing that one piece without buying an entire rebuild kit keeps the job focused and the parts count accurate. This listing is for one steel module dimensioned for the AW60 and AW60-40LE automatic transmission, covering units from 1995 forward, and nothing else is included in the shipment.
The steel module serves as the contact surface against which friction discs engage under hydraulic pressure. When that surface shows grooving, heat discoloration, or uneven wear, clutch pack behavior becomes unpredictable regardless of the condition of the frictions themselves. Swapping the steel restores a consistent contact surface so the clutch pack can do its job as designed.
This piece weighs 2.81 lb, which gives you a useful reference point if you want to compare it against the unit you pulled before placing the order. Spline count, outer diameter, and thickness all follow the AW60-40LE specification, so fitment depends on confirming you are working on that exact unit rather than a similar-looking transmission from a different family.
What is not here matters as much as what is: friction discs, Automatic Transmission Filter, seals, gaskets, and band are not part of this listing. If your repair calls for any of those, they need to be sourced separately. Review your inspection notes against this scope before ordering to avoid a return trip.
To confirm compatibility, locate the transmission identification code stamped or tagged on the case and verify it reads AW60 or AW60-40LE. Also confirm the build year of the unit falls at 1995 or later. Those two checkpoints are the ones that determine whether this module fits your application.
- This steel module addresses worn or damaged clutch pack contact surfaces in AW60-40LE units, helping restore proper clutch engagement and preventing slippage caused by a deteriorated steel.
- This listing covers a single steel module only. It does not include friction discs, seals, gaskets, Automatic Transmission Filter, or any other internal components. Verify your full parts list before ordering.
- The steel module is matched to AW60-40LE geometry, meaning the thickness and spline profile correspond to the dimensional specs of that unit rather than a generic substitute.
- One steel module, 2.81 lb. No additional pieces are included in this shipment. Weigh or measure your existing piece against this spec before committing to the order.
- Before ordering, confirm the transmission code on the unit itself is AW60 or AW60-40LE and that the application year falls within the 1995-and-later range covered by this part.
