65RFE Pump 2019, new and ready to install. Fits the 65RFE. Ships fast from the USA.
Chrysler redesigned the RFE transmission in 2019, and the pump valves changed with it. This kit is for those later units. It is a pump valve repair kit, not a complete pump. It contains a pressure regulator valve, a TCC switch valve, a torque converter limit valve and the 2019-up style TCC regulator valve. It is meant for 2019-and-later trucks with converter lockup slip, stall on engagement, or erratic pressure, where a worn pump valve is the cause rather than worn pump gears.
Before 2019, the Low/Reverse solenoid also acted as the converter clutch solenoid. Transmission Digest describes how the 2019 units added a separate TCC solenoid in a small housing on the lower channel plate, plus a new normally applied Reverse solenoid. With the converter control circuit redesigned, the TCC regulator valve in the pump changed too. Sonnax lists one TCC regulator kit for 2018-and-earlier 68RFE and a different one for 2019-and-later units. A 1999-2018 valve set is not the right fit for a 2019-up pump.
The job of each valve has not changed. The pressure regulator sets line pressure and feeds the converter and cooler circuit. The TCC switch valve moves the converter between release and apply. The TCC regulator controls apply pressure during partial lockup. The limit valve caps converter feed pressure while the clutch is released. When a spool wears its aluminum bore, pressure that should reach the converter or the clutches leaks to exhaust.
On these trucks the new TCC solenoid and its wiring are the first things to check. They are newer parts and easy to test. Use our 68RFE solenoid testing guide for that, then check line pressure against commanded pressure with the fluid hot, as covered in our 68RFE pump failure guide. If the electrical side passes and pressure or lockup is still wrong, pull the pump and vacuum-test the valve bores. A badly worn bore may need an oversized valve and reaming rather than a drop-in replacement.
The kit is listed for all 2019 and later RFE applications. The quickest check is the transmission pass-through case connector. Blue means the 2019-up design and this kit. White or gray means an earlier unit, which takes the 1999-2018 RFE pump valve kit instead. The 2019 change is best documented on the 68RFE behind the 6.7L Cummins. If yours is a 65RFE or 66RFE, check the connector color or send us your year and VIN before ordering. More parts for these units are on our 68RFE parts page.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
No. It is a pump valve repair kit: pressure regulator, TCC switch, torque converter limit and the 2019-up style TCC regulator valve. The pump body, gears and cover are reused.
No. It is for 2019-and-later RFE units. Earlier transmissions use a different TCC regulator valve and need the 1999-2018 kit. A white or gray case connector means the earlier design.
Look at the pass-through case connector. Transmission Digest identifies the 2019 design by its blue connector and the separate TCC solenoid on the lower channel plate.
Yes, and check that first. The 2019-up units have a dedicated TCC solenoid, and the solenoid, its connector and wiring are easier to test than the pump valves.
Mopar ATF+4 (MS-9602-F). Prime the pump before the first start and set the level only at 160 degrees F or more.
