Trans Info for Nitro

[flaps]

Hello, I was trying to google the info for this transmission, so I could see a pic, read some info on, and nothing comes up.

Anyone know the actual # for the 2011 Nitro 4.0l Heat Trans?

Maybe with a mfg # I can find some info, just for fun and reading,

Any helpful info would be appreciatted, thanks

The five-speed automatic transmission was mated to the 4.0-liter V-6 engine; it features Electronic Range Select (ERS) interactive shift control. The shifter provides fully-automated shifting when in the Drive position, or the driver can manually select each gear by moving the shifter left and right from the Drive position (it’s also known as AutoStick). Transmission ratios for the five-speed automatic are 3.59, 2.19, 1.41, 1.0, 0.83, and Reverse 3.16.

Transmission: A 580 – Automatic Five-Speed Overdrive (standard, 4.0 V6)

This help?

Can you give me the specs on the 4-speed on the 3.7? Thanks.

Well, when the dust settled, I am not the owner of a 2011 Heat 4.0 :-(

I am the owner of a 2007 3.7L Nitro with 41000 miles on it in real nice condition.

So I would love to know more about the 3.7 4 speed also :-)

Not much but again knowing it is a 42RLE trans, maybe that will help you to find more.

42RLE

The 42LE was modified in 2003 as the 42RLE, originally for the then-new Jeep Liberty. It is a 42LE transaxle, modified for RWD use by removing the integral differential and transfer chain. Power flow exits the rear of the transmission. The case has also been modified. This transmission is still in production for several models.
