45RFE Valve Body 2010, remanufactured and ready to install. Fits the 45RFE. Ships fast from the USA.
A 2010 Dodge Ram, Durango, Dakota or Jeep model running the 45RFE that shifts harshly, flares between gears, or has set a line-pressure or solenoid code and dropped into limp mode is almost always a valve body problem, not a clutch problem. This is a remanufactured, bench-ready valve body for the 45RFE, built so you install a known-good hydraulic assembly instead of diagnosing bore wear and solenoid drift piece by piece.
The 45RFE is a clutch-to-clutch electronic automatic, which means every shift depends on the valve body routing line pressure through its bores and spool valves to the correct clutch, timed by the pressure-control and shift solenoids it carries. Chrysler's own service information for this platform documents a closed-loop line-pressure control strategy running between 120 and 135 psi under normal conditions, so when a bore wears or a solenoid sticks, the pressure control system reacts with a stored code rather than letting the problem pass unnoticed.
Scan for codes and, if you can, compare desired-versus-actual line pressure before buying - our 45RFE pressure control solenoid symptoms and testing guide covers the line-pressure codes above in detail, and the broader Chrysler 45RFE and 545RFE problems guide covers the rest of what tends to fail on this family. If the complaint is a hesitation before the transmission takes off rather than a mid-shift problem, our delayed engagement guide is the more specific starting point.
This listing is built for the 45RFE as used in 2010 model year Dodge Ram, Durango, Dakota and Jeep applications. The 45RFE sits right at the handoff point to the updated 545RFE, and Chrysler revised the valve body casting and solenoid pack more than once across this run, so match your casting marks and connector count against the listing photos, or send us your VIN so we can confirm the exact revision for your build date. The full 45RFE/545RFE parts collection has the rest of what we stock for this transmission.
Change the fluid and filter at the same time as the valve body swap so debris from the old unit does not circulate into the new one, and refill with ATF+4 only. Torque the valve body bolts in sequence to spec rather than corner to corner, clear any stored codes, and run the TCM's Quick Learn adaptive relearn afterward so the computer re-times clutch fill against the new unit. If your original fault was a stored solenoid code rather than a hydraulic shift problem, a 545RFE solenoid kit paired with fresh fluid can resolve it for less than a full valve body.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
P0868 and P0869 (line pressure low/high) and P0932 and P0934 (line pressure sensor circuit) are the most common codes tied to valve body and pressure-control wear on this platform.
Harsh, late or flared shifts, slipping between gears or a missing upshift, and torque converter clutch slip or shudder.
It is built for the 45RFE as used in 2010 model year applications, but Chrysler revised the casting and solenoid pack more than once across this run, so match your casting marks and connector count against the photos or send us your VIN.
ATF+4 only, with a fluid and filter change alongside the valve body swap so debris from the old unit does not circulate into the new one.
Clear codes and run the TCM's Quick Learn adaptive relearn so the computer re-times clutch fill against the new valve body.
Not always - if the fault is a stored solenoid code rather than a hydraulic shift problem, a 545RFE solenoid kit with fresh fluid can be the cheaper fix.
