When the reverse band in a C4 or C5 automatic transmission has worn through its friction lining, no amount of adjustment brings back clean engagement, and the rigid steel beneath it will not hold under apply pressure. This single relined rigid reverse rear band is the direct replacement for that worn piece, sized and lined to match the stock geometry of the servo and drum in those units.
The rigid design is important here. A flexible band can deflect under load and produce inconsistent apply pressure across the friction surface, which shortens the life of the new lining and of the drum. The rigid core keeps the contact even and allows the servo to do its job as the engineers intended for C4 and C5 units built between 1964 and 1986.
REMCO has worked in automatic transmission parts since 1991, and every piece that ships is inspected against its part record before it is packed. The box this band arrives in identifies the part inside, so there is no guessing at the bench.
What is not included matters as much as what is. This listing is for the band alone. Seals, gaskets, Automatic Transmission Filter, clutch packs, steels, and any other soft parts are sold separately. If you are doing a full rebuild, check your parts list against what you already have before placing the order.
To confirm fit, check the transmission identification code on your unit and match it to C4 or C5, then verify the model year is within the 1964 to 1986 window. Those two data points are the only reliable way to confirm this band is the right one for the job.
- A relined rigid band restores holding force in the reverse and rear circuits, addressing the slipping and delayed engagement that worn friction material causes in C4 and C5 units.
- This listing covers the band only. It does not include any soft parts, seals, gaskets, Automatic Transmission Filter, clutch discs, or steels. Verify what else your rebuild requires before ordering.
- The rigid construction of this band is matched to the stock specification for C4 and C5 applications, keeping the servo apply geometry correct and avoiding the distortion that a flexible band can introduce under load.
- One relined rigid reverse rear band, 1.5 lb. Each piece is pulled and inspected at the REMCO facility before it leaves, and the box identifies exactly what is inside.
- Before ordering, confirm the transmission code stamped on your unit matches C4 or C5, and that the model year falls within the 1964 to 1986 range covered here. Application fit depends on that code.
