When the clutch packs in an A404 automatic transmission are slipping or burned, getting the right friction plates in the right spec is what determines whether the rebuild holds. This Friction Kit from REMCO delivers exactly 8 plates covering both the direct clutch and the forward clutch, with each plate matched to the spec its position demands.
The direct clutch side gets 4 frictions at .083 thickness in a waffle pattern, an application that runs from 78-UP and also covers 413, 470, and 670 units. The forward clutch side gets 4 frictions at .071 thickness with a 49-tooth count, covering 81-UP and the same 413, 470, 670 family. Those are two different parts doing two different jobs, and this kit brings both together under one SKU so the technician does not have to source them separately.
What this kit does not include is equally important to state clearly: there are no steel plates, no seals, no gaskets, no Automatic Transmission Filter, and no bands in this box. If your rebuild needs any of those components, they need to come from separate orders. Check your build sheet before purchasing.
REMCO has been working in automatic transmissions since 1991. Every kit is assembled here, piece by piece, against a parts list, and that same list ships inside the box so you can verify the count when it arrives. At 2 lb, the kit is compact, but the piece list inside reflects exactly what was packed and checked before it left.
Confirm the unit code on the case and the build year before ordering. The A404 application starts at 1989 for this kit, and the individual friction lines carry their own date ranges as noted above.
- Direct and forward clutch friction replacement for A404 units built from 1989 on, covering both clutch packs in a single order so the rebuild stays on track.
- This kit does NOT include steel plates, seals, gaskets, Automatic Transmission Filter, or bands. Review your parts list before ordering to confirm you have those components covered separately.
- Two distinct friction specs in one box: the direct clutch frictions run .083 thickness in a waffle pattern, while the forward clutch frictions measure .071 with a 49-tooth count, each matched to its own application window within the A404 family.
- Box contains 8 friction plates total: 4 x A404 direct clutch (.083 waffle) rated [78-UP] compatible with 413 470 670, and 4 x A404 forward clutch (.071, 49 teeth) rated [81-UP] compatible with 413 470 670. Kit weight: 2 lb.
- Before ordering, verify the unit code stamped on the transmission case and confirm the build year falls within the application range. A404 shares friction applications with 413, 470, and 670 units listed above.
