RE4F04A Overhaul Kit 1993-2006, new and ready to install. Fits the RE4F04A. Ships fast from the USA.
A Nissan Altima that slips between second and third, a 3.0-liter Maxima or Quest that bangs into Drive and then flares on the highway, or any of these four-speeds leaking from the pan and side cover is usually past the point of a fluid change. This RE4F04A and RE4F04B overhaul kit is a complete clutch-and-seal package for a full rebuild, covering 1993-2006 Altima 2.4 and 2.5-liter cars and the 3.0-liter Maxima and Quest. It is new, and it is built to cover both the A and B versions of the transmission.
From the kit photos, this is more than a reseal set. It contains:
A filter, band, bushings and hard parts are not shown, so plan those separately. If the clutches are still good and you only need to reseal, the RE4F04A gasket and seal kit covers the soft parts only, and the RE4F04A master rebuild kit is the other full kit we carry for this unit.
The RE4F04A is Jatco's large-case front-drive four-speed. Clutch packs drive and hold the planetary members, and each pack is applied by a piston fed through sealing rings that pass oil from the stationary case into spinning drums. The transmission computer sets line pressure with an electronic pressure control solenoid, so a weak or sticking EPC can push pressure high enough to overload a drum. Over time the frictions glaze, the steels heat-check, and the rubber shrinks, which lets the clutches slip during the handoff from one gear to the next. Replacing the plates and every seal together restores both holding power and sealing in one teardown.
Read the fluid and the magnet first. Dark fluid with fiber in the pan supports a full overhaul with this kit, while clean fluid with a hot drop-out-of-gear complaint can be a single seal. A gauge on the line pressure tap tells you whether pressure is low or running away high; our pressure testing guide shows how to read it by range, and the rebuild vs replace guide helps decide if a rebuild makes sense on a high-mileage car.
The kit maker lists the 1993-2006 Altima with the 2.4 and 2.5-liter engines, the 3.0-liter Maxima and the 1993-2002 Quest 3.0, plus the overseas X-Trail 2.5. It does not fit 3.5-liter models, which rules out the 3.5 Altima and the 2002-and-later Maxima. TransGo's identification sheet splits the family by solenoid wiring: A and V units bring the solenoid wires out through the case, while the later B keeps the harness inside. This kit is listed for both, but match your plate count and gasket shapes to what comes out before you discard anything. If you are not sure which version you have, send us the year and VIN. More rebuild parts are in our rebuild kits category.

Yes. The kit photos show a full friction set and steel plates along with the gaskets, seals, sealing rings and O-rings. A filter, band and bushings are not shown, so order those separately if you need them.
The kit is listed for 1993-2006 Altima 2.4 and 2.5-liter cars with the RE4F04A or RE4F04B. It does not fit 3.5-liter models. Send us your VIN if you want us to confirm before ordering.
Look at the solenoid wiring. On A and V units the solenoid wires exit through the case; on the B the harness stays inside the case. This kit is listed for both, but compare plate counts and gaskets at teardown.
Yes. A tired EPC solenoid can let line pressure run high, which overloads the drums and planets. Installing a new one during the overhaul protects the new clutches.
Use the Nissan fluid specified for your model year, flush the cooler first, and check the level hot. TransGo recommends setting it about 1/4 to 3/8 inch above the full mark when hot.
