U760E Shift Kit 2008, new and ready to install. Fits the U760E. Ships fast from the USA.
This listing is not a valve body shift kit. The part you receive is a new Raybestos RHT96-286 HT friction clutch pack module for the Toyota/Lexus/Scion U760E six-speed, cataloged by Raybestos as 2008-on, interchange 277119B. It is meant for a four-cylinder Camry, Venza, Sienna or Highlander whose U760E slips under load, flares between gears, or came out of the pan with burnt, black fluid and friction material in the filter. If what you actually want is the valve body repair kit for 2-3 flare and lockup codes, see our TransGo SK U760E shift kit instead.
Every forward gear and Reverse in the U760E comes from holding or driving planetary members with multi-plate clutches and brakes. Each pack is a stack of lined friction plates interleaved with steel plates; hydraulic pressure on a piston squeezes the stack so it locks up. When the lining glazes, wears thin or burns, the pack needs more pressure and more time to hold, which you feel as slip, flare and late engagement, and the extra heat cooks the fluid. Replacing the frictions as a full set is the core of a U760E rebuild.
Raybestos describes the module as 15 friction plates covering three positions: six for the #1 brake (2-6), four for the #2 brake (1st and Reverse) and five for the #2 clutch (4-5-6 direct). The individual plates Raybestos lists for it are:
All are Raybestos HT (Hybrid Technology) material, made in the USA. Steel plates, seals, gaskets and the filter are not included; Raybestos sells the matching steels separately as STMTOYTA58.
Slip on a U760E is not always the clutches. Low fluid, the wrong fluid, or valve body bore wear can all produce flare, so first set the level with Toyota's hot check-plug procedure and pull any stored codes. Our U660E and U760E problems guide walks through those checks. If the fluid is burnt and the pan holds lining material, the frictions are done and the unit needs to come apart.
Raybestos catalogs RHT96-286 for the U760E, 2008-on. Confirm that your transaxle tag reads U760E (the V6 U660E uses different packs), and check plate count and OD against what comes out of your unit. Send your year and VIN if you want us to check before you order. The rest of the family's parts are on our U660E / U760E parts page.
Soak every new friction in clean Toyota WS fluid before assembly, inspect each steel for heat spots and replace any that are blued or warped, and set clearances to the factory spec. Inspect the C1/C2 drum ring grooves and piston bores, since a leaking drum will slip new frictions too. If you need seals and steels as well, a U760E/U760F master rebuild kit covers the whole job in one box. Refill with Toyota WS ATF, set the level hot at 185-194 F, and clear the adaptive values before the road test.

No. Despite the listing title, it is a Raybestos RHT96-286 friction clutch pack module (15 friction plates) for the U760E. It does not change valve body calibration.
No. It is frictions only. Raybestos sells the matching U760E steel module separately as STMTOYTA58, and seals and gaskets come in an overhaul kit.
No. The V6 models use the U660E. RHT96-286 is cataloged for the four-cylinder U760E, 2008-on.
Yes. Soak each plate in clean Toyota WS fluid before assembly so the lining is saturated when the unit first runs.
Toyota WS ATF, with the level set hot at 185-194 F as described in Toyota bulletin T-SB-0036-13.
