About this product

Read this page before you order, because the year range on this listing matters more than the model name. The kit here is TransGo's SK 6R80-G2, the second-generation valve body repair kit in TransGo's 6R60, 6R75, 6R80 and 6R100 product line. TransGo builds it for GEN2 valve bodies only: the 6R80 from January 2015 on, with or without start-stop, and the 6R100 from 2017. The factory 6R60, by contrast, was only built into 2006-2008 Explorers and Mountaineers, all with GEN1 valve bodies. So if you are shopping for a stock 6R60, you almost certainly want our 2006-2014 GEN1 6R60 shift kit instead. This GEN2 kit is the right buy for a 2015-or-later six-speed, or for any unit that has been fitted with a GEN2 valve body and measures that way.

What the GEN2 shift kit does

Ford redesigned the 6R valve body for 2015. The pressure regulator (PR) valve grew from a .495 in land to .514 in, and the casting picked up an extra filter port that start-stop models use along with a small electric auxiliary pump on the passenger side. What did not change is where these valve bodies wear. The PR valve and its boost valve polish the bore until line pressure drifts, and the converter clutch regulator lets the TCC hunt at part throttle. The G2 kit answers both: a patented two-piece steel PR valve with a new boost valve, a large white spring and a four-groove end cap sized for the GEN2 bore, then a steel TCC regulator valve with a small white spring. Spare wire retainers come in the box because the factory ones break during disassembly.

Symptoms the G2 kit targets

How to confirm before you buy

The deciding test is a measurement, not a part number. TransGo tells installers to pull the original PR valve and measure its land: .495 in is GEN1 and needs the earlier kit, .514 in is GEN2 and takes this one. Do not go by looks alone, because some 2014, early 2015 and some new replacement GEN1 valve bodies have the extra filter hole and resemble GEN2 castings while still running the small valve. Before opening the pan, scan for codes and fix any solenoid or wiring faults; our shift solenoid symptoms guide covers how. On 2015-2017 F-150s, check for open recalls too, since lead frame faults can mimic hydraulic problems, as our 6R80 F-150 shift problems guide explains.

Fitment

Use this kit on GEN2 valve bodies with stock factory bore sizes: 2015-on 6R80 applications such as the F-150, Expedition, Navigator and Mustang, and the 2017-on 6R100. TransGo's instructions note that Ford's parts book shows all vehicles built after December 2014 with a GEN2 valve body, but the measurement is still the final word. A factory 6R60 or 6R75 is GEN1. If you are unsure, send us your year and VIN before ordering, or compare options on our 6R80 and 6R60 parts collection. The same G2 kit is also listed as our 2015-2019 6R80 shift kit.

6R60 Shift Kit 2015-2019: common questions

Will this kit fit my 2006-2008 Explorer with a 6R60?

Not if the valve body is original. Every factory 6R60 is GEN1 with a .495 in PR valve, and TransGo builds this G2 kit for .514 in GEN2 valve bodies only. Order the 2006-2014 GEN1 6R60 kit for a stock Explorer or Mountaineer.

Why is it listed as a 6R60 kit at all?

TransGo files it in its 6R60, 6R75, 6R80 and 6R100 product line. Its stated fitment is the GEN2 6R80 from 2015 on and the 6R100 from 2017, so treat the measurement of your PR valve as the deciding test.

How do I tell GEN1 from GEN2?

Remove and measure the original pressure regulator valve land. .495 in is GEN1; .514 in is GEN2. The extra filter hole is not a reliable sign, because some late GEN1 and replacement valve bodies have it too.

Does it work on start-stop transmissions?

Yes. TransGo lists the G2 kit for GEN2 valve bodies with or without start-stop. Start-stop units use the extra filter port, a two-neck filter and a small electric auxiliary pump.

Will it cure a shudder at 30 to 45 mph?

That converter quiver is one of the main complaints it corrects. TransGo adds that if the complaint has gone on for more than a month or two, the converter may also need replacing.
