/ 545RFE Transmission Pan

The Mag-Hytec 45RFE / 545RFE transmission pan is engineered to enhance the cooling capabilities and extend the life of your transmission. Its robust finned aluminum construction significantly increases heat dissipation compared to the factory steel pan, which is crucial for transmissions working under heavy loads, such as towing. This improved cooling directly translates to lower fluid temperatures, promoting a longer transmission lifespan. This deep transmission pan offers an increased fluid capacity, holding 1.5 to 2 quarts more than the stock unit. This additional fluid volume further aids in temperature regulation and contributes to extended fluid service intervals. For ease of maintenance and to capture harmful metallic wear particles, the pan is equipped with a magnetic drain plug. Additionally, a built-in port allows for the installation of a temperature sender, giving you the ability to monitor your transmission's fluid temperature directly. An important fitment note for this transmission pan is its design requirement to work specifically with the 4-wheel drive transmission filter. Regardless of whether your vehicle is 2-wheel drive or 4-wheel drive, the 4WD filter must be used with this pan for proper fitment and functionality. The pan includes a bolt kit and a drain plug for installation. It is compatible with 45RFE and 545RFE transmissions found in a range of Dodge, Jeep, and other vehicles from 1999 to 2013, including specific applications like the Jeep Grand Cherokee (4.7L, 4.7L H.O., 5.7L Hemi), Dodge Dakota (4.7L, 4.7L H.O.), and Dodge Ram (3.7L, 4.7L, 5.7L Hemi).
