JASPER UPDATES

  • 100% installation of the Sonnax Smart-Tech® drum on all 68RFE transmissions. This drum utilizes double-sided overdrive friction plates with a higher heat capacity, preventing heat-related clutch plate warping.  
  • JASPER’s 68RFE Transmissions with the Sonnax Smart-Tech® drum include a larger piston surface area, resulting in an 18% increase in overdrive clutch torque capacity, compared to OE applications.
  • JASPER installs additional friction discs in the underdrive clutch, providing a 20% increase in torque capacity.

Value-Added Quality Improvements from JASPER

Issue / Concern:

Underdrive/Overdrive Clutch Failure, Burnt Clutches

JASPER Solution:

  • JASPER® installs additional friction discs in the Underdrive clutch (12 discs total compared to 10). This provides a 20% increase in torque capacity.
  • 100% installation of the Sonnax Smart Tech® drum on all 68RFE transmissions. This drum utilizes double-sided friction plates with a higher heat capacity, preventing heat-related clutch plate warping.
  • JASPER’s 68RFE Transmissions with the Sonnax Smart Tech® drum include a larger piston surface area, resulting in an 18% increase in overdrive clutch torque capacity, compared to OE applications.

Pump Cover Leaking

  • 100% installation of NEW pump bushing.
  • JASPER’s updated pump gear has a tighter fit with the converter hub at the drive lugs to reduce engagement play and noise.
  • 100% installation of NEW front pump cover to prevent leaking.

Burning of Torque Converter Lining

  • 100% replacement of converter lining.

Delayed Engagement Caused by Converter Draining

  • JASPER blocks the pump channel in early pumps to replicate the late pump design, preventing converter drain.

Loss of Cooler Flow and Overheating

  • JASPER installs an anodized aluminum TCC limit valve and hardened sleeve on early models to prevent hydraulic leaks and future wear.

Harsh TCC Engagement Because of Breakage of the TCC Accumulator Spring

  • 100% replacement of TCC accumulator spring with an improved design to prevent spring failure.

Loose Accumulator Cover

  • JASPER applies a thread lock on accumulator cover bolts to prevent the cover from becoming unsecured from the valve body.
