65RFE Overhaul Kit 2012, new and ready to install. Fits the 65RFE. Ships fast from the USA.
A 65RFE that leaks, engages late on a cold morning or slips once it is hot is usually telling you its seals have hardened. This is the factory gasket and seal overhaul kit for the 65RFE, listed under Mopar part number 68334544AB, which replaces 68334544AA, R0004541AC and R0004541AB. It covers 2012 and later 65RFE units, the six-speed RFE found behind V8 engines in vehicles such as the Ram 1500, Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee. It is the kit to use when the transmission is coming out for a rebuild and you want factory seals in every bore.
The 65RFE belongs to the RFE family that started with the 45RFE in 1999, and it shares its basic layout with the five-speed 545RFE: clutch packs applied by pistons, no bands, and an electronic solenoid pack that decides which clutch gets pressure. The seals on each piston, the sealing rings that carry oil through rotating shafts, and the gaskets at the pump and valve body are what turn that commanded pressure into clamping force. Once they shrink and harden from heat and miles, pressure bleeds off internally and the clutch slips even though the transmission computer is asking for a full apply. An overhaul kit replaces that sealing layer in one go. Frictions and steels are not part of it.
Scan for codes, check the fluid level hot, and compare commanded with actual line pressure. Clean fluid with unstable pressure suggests a valve body or pump issue rather than seals, so work through the checks in our RFE valve body testing guide. The RFE pump failure guide covers how pump wear shows up, which matters because the same pump design is used across the family.
The listing fits the 65RFE from 2012 onward. 65RFE applications vary by model and year, and some of the same vehicles used the 545RFE in other years, so check the tag on the transmission or send us your year and VIN before ordering. For units built before 2012, see the 2006-up 545RFE and 65RFE overhaul kit. Related family parts are listed on the 545RFE collection page.
The listing describes a gasket and seal set. The product photo also shows a sump filter, a spin-on cooler filter and a molded piston. If you need those parts in the box, contact us before ordering so we can confirm what ships.
