45RFE [99-UP] Automatic Transmission Filter 4x2 Kit with Pan Gasket

When a 45RFE, 5-45RFE, or 68RFE automatic transmission comes apart on the bench, having the right pan gasket and Automatic Transmission Filters ready before reassembly saves time and avoids a second parts run. This set brings together the three sealing and filtering pieces that wear and degrade most predictably during service: the bottom pan duraprene gasket, the 2-wheel-drive Automatic Transmission Filter, and the spin-on cooler Automatic Transmission Filter, all covering applications from 1999 forward.

Each of the three pieces in this set was picked individually and packed here at REMCO, where the shop has worked on automatic transmission parts since 1991. A parts list ships inside the box so you can check off each item as you pull it out, which matters when you are working against a deadline and cannot afford a missing piece mid-job.

A few things to confirm before placing the order. First, drivetrain: the Automatic Transmission Filter included here is the 2WD version. If the unit you are rebuilding is 4-wheel drive, this is not the right Automatic Transmission Filter. Second, the Automatic Transmission Filter seal listed in the catalog note as part number 44550 is not in this set; order it separately or it will not be there when you need it. Third, this set covers gasket and filtering only. It does not include friction discs, steel plates, bands, clutch packs, solenoids, or any other internal components. Review your rebuild checklist against what is here before submitting the order.

The three pieces together weigh 1 lb, so the set is compact. Confirm the unit code, the year (1999 or later), and the drivetrain before ordering.

• This 3-piece set covers the bottom pan gasket, the 2WD Automatic Transmission Filter, and the spin-on cooler Automatic Transmission Filter for 45RFE, 5-45RFE, and 68RFE units, giving you the sealing and filtering components in one order.
• This set does NOT include friction discs, steel plates, bands, clutch packs, or solenoids. If your rebuild requires those parts, check your parts list and order them separately before starting the job.
• The 2WD Automatic Transmission Filter listed here applies to 2-wheel-drive applications only. The listing notes that Automatic Transmission Filter seal 44550 should also be ordered alongside the 2WD Automatic Transmission Filter; that seal is sold separately and is not in this set.
• Exact contents: 1 bottom pan duraprene gasket for 45RFE/5-45RFE/68RFE, 1 2WD Automatic Transmission Filter (2-wheel-drive applications, 99-UP), 1 spin-on cooler Automatic Transmission Filter (99-UP). Total weight: 1 lb.
• Before ordering, confirm the unit code (45RFE, 5-45RFE, or 68RFE), the model year (1999 or later), and the drivetrain (2WD). If the unit is 4-wheel drive, this Automatic Transmission Filter set does not apply.
