A4LD 4R44E 4R55E 5R55E C3 [74-UP] Automatic Transmission Bushing Extension

A failed extension housing bushing in a 4R44E, 4R55E, 5R55E, or A4LD automatic transmission allows the output shaft to move off-center, which wears the rear seal quickly and can cause fluid loss before the overhaul is even finished. This single babbit bushing is the correct piece for the C-3 position in those units, covering applications from 1970 forward.

Babbit is a soft bearing alloy that conforms gradually to the shaft surface, which is exactly what the extension housing position demands. A bushing that is too hard will not seat correctly and will wear the shaft instead of protecting it. Getting the material right here is not a detail to overlook.

This listing is for one piece: the extension housing bushing, babbit, C-3 classification. It does not include seals, gaskets, Automatic Transmission Filter, bands, clutch packs, or any other component. If your rebuild requires those parts, they need to be sourced separately. Check your parts breakdown before placing the order.

Compatibility covers the 4R44E, 4R55E, 5R55E, and A4LD transmission families, year range 70-UP. Always read the code stamped or tagged on the actual transmission unit before ordering. Two vehicles of the same year and engine can carry different transmission codes, and the unit code is the only reliable reference.

Item weight is 1 lb. REMCO has worked in automatic transmissions since 1991, and every piece that ships is checked against its listing before it leaves.

• Replacing a worn extension housing bushing stops output shaft play that leads to seal leaks and driveline vibration, keeping the repair on track from the start.
• This listing covers one bushing only. It does not include any seals, gaskets, bands, clutch discs, steels, or Automatic Transmission Filter. Review your parts list before ordering to avoid a return.
• The babbit material used in this extension housing bushing is matched to the load and wear characteristics of the C-3 position in these units, not a generic substitute.
• One extension housing bushing, babbit type, C-3 classification. Applies to 4R44E, 4R55E, 5R55E, and A4LD units. Item weight: 1 lb.
• Before ordering, confirm the transmission code on the unit itself matches 4R44E, 4R55E, 5R55E, or A4LD. The year range is 70-UP. Do not rely on vehicle model alone.
