When I took my trans pan off of my other (1993) 518, i removed a trans pan gasket that I hadn't seen before.


It was a rigid steel pan gasket that was rubber coated. It was encapsulated in a coating that had ridges in it, and sealed the tranny up tight with no sealants at all.


Anyone know where I can buy a rigid pan gasket for my 518 ? I have to dump the pan, filter and I would like to install this type of removable / reusable gasket in doing so. I searched Summit racing, and they only have the cheapo cork or rubber floppy gaskets.


Most appreciated !

That rigid gasket sounds like the latest version from Dodge. They work pretty good, as long as the sealing surface on the pan hasn't been distorted, and they are reuseable. Part number is 2464324AC.

 

Does that fit the transmission in the wife's I/C O.D. 1991.5 ??


Thanks.

 

I have the same gasket on my truck I got it from dodge for about 15 bucks. And yes it will fit your wife's truck bearkiller.

 

TransStar has that gasket.

 

fits all 727s, 518s,618s. love them lol....drop the pan change the filter and reinstall the filter no more scraping old stuck gaskets lol.

 

It is reuseable.

 

NJTman, remember to check out the thread in the sticky on how to adjust the bands and tweak the valve body a little bit, adjusting the bands is a must if you're pulling the pan.

 

Brandon,

You're an incredible dude. You must have some special x ray super duper, mind reading, visionary ability, as last night, I printed the FSM on how to adjust the bands in my trans, and actually highlighted the pages for the specs.


Man... you're freaking good....


Can you tell me the NJ lottery's winning 6 numbers. I'd really appreciate it... I promise I'll buy you whatever you want....

A brand spanking restored 1st gen.

A new cummins powered ram from the dealer..


Or a bunch of hookers to ride around in your new truck with you.


Just let me know...

you can reuse that gasket quite a few times

 

Be careful T you can't get hookers for a minor lol... And his head is already swelled up please don't make it worse Hahahahahaha...

 

Yeah, that's because they're not needed today, as they were back when we were growing up.....

 

Bill is the one with the swelled up head -

Tman, It's an ability that was passed down, psychic stuff. I've done it quite a few times before on here

 

For anyone who actually hasn't seen one of these reusable gaskets




And the Mopar filter.


I paid $20 for the gasket and $8 for the filter. The OEM filter seems really heavy compared to the aftermarket ones.

Don't know why.
