62TE Clutch Drum 2007, remanufactured and ready to install. Fits the 62TE. Ships fast from the USA.
This is a remanufactured clutch drum for the 2007 Chrysler 62TE, the first model year of the six-speed, when it went into the Chrysler Sebring with the 3.5L and the Pacifica with the 4.0L ahead of its spread to the minivans and the Journey. Most people searching for a 62TE drum have a unit on the bench with a 1-2 slip, a P0792 or P0735 stored, or worn sealing ring grooves they found during teardown. Those faults trace back to a drum, and putting new rings in a worn drum does not fix them.
A drum is the rotating housing that holds a clutch pack's frictions and steels and contains the piston that clamps them. Fluid from the valve body reaches the piston through sealing rings that ride in machined grooves, or ring lands, on the drum hub. The 62TE has its drums in two places: the input clutch assembly it inherited from the 41TE, and the underdrive compounder Chrysler bolted behind it to create the extra two ratios. The compounder's low clutch drum is the one that wears. When its ring lands open up, apply oil leaks past the rings, the low clutch cannot hold, and the computer sees the ratio it commanded fail to happen.
ATRA's 62TE update lists low clutch drum ring land wear as the most common hard-parts failure on this transaxle and treats the original drum as one you should plan to replace. With the compounder apart, measure the sealing ring grooves rather than eyeballing them; rings that look fine can still leave too much side clearance in a worn groove. GEARS magazine's 62TE article recommends confirming the TCC and software side first, then going to the compounder when the ratio codes point there. Our 62TE common problems and fixes guide covers the drum failure in detail, and the Chrysler 200 62TE problems guide shows how the same failure appears on the later sedans.
This drum is listed for 2007 62TE transaxles. The 62TE uses more than one drum and Chrysler revised the compounder drum during production, with an updated version that uses locking rings, so lay your old drum next to the photos and compare the hub, splines and ring grooves before you order. If you are not sure which drum you are holding, send us the year, VIN and the transmission tag number and we will check it for you. For later units we also carry a 62TE clutch drum for 2009-2012, and the full 62TE parts list is on the 62TE collection page.
The drum is a press-fit job in tight quarters, so the 62TE clutch drum removal puller saves damage to the housing. Pair the drum with the 62TE master rebuild kit for fresh frictions, rings and seals.

It is listed as a 62TE clutch drum for 2007 units. The 62TE has more than one drum and Chrysler revised the compounder drum during production, so compare your old drum to the photos or send us your year, VIN and transmission tag number before ordering.
On a 62TE low clutch drum, usually not. ATRA identifies ring land wear on the drum itself as the most common failure, and new rings in worn grooves leak the same way. The drum is the repair.
P0792 and P0735, often with a 1-2 slip or no line pressure rise. Rule out the TCC and software first, then inspect the compounder.
New sealing rings, piston seals, frictions and steels for that pack, a filter and ATF+4. A master rebuild kit covers the soft parts.
Yes. Run the 62TE quick learn with a scan tool after the rebuild so the TCM learns the clutch fill volumes on the new parts, then let it finish adapting over normal driving.
