Overview:

The PPE Heavy-Duty Cast Aluminum Transmission Pan is engineered to enhance the durability and cooling efficiency of your vehicle’s transmission system. Designed specifically for a range of Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep models, this transmission pan addresses one of the most critical factors affecting transmission longevity: excessive heat. By increasing fluid capacity and improving heat dissipation, it helps maintain optimal transmission fluid viscosity and protects internal components from premature wear and failure.

Ideal for enthusiasts and daily drivers alike, this pan is a reliable upgrade for anyone looking to extend the life and performance of their 5-speed automatic transmission under demanding conditions.

Key Features:

This transmission pan combines advanced design elements and high-quality materials to deliver superior performance and protection:

• Constructed from high-grade A356.0-T6 cast aluminum alloy for exceptional strength and durability
• Provides an additional 3/4 quart of transmission fluid capacity to improve cooling and lubrication
• Deep external cooling fins maximize surface area for efficient heat dissipation
• Integrated baffles increase fluid contact with aluminum surfaces, enhancing heat transfer and reducing fluid sloshing
• Cross-bracing structure formed by fins and baffles improves impact resistance and load distribution
• Drain plug equipped with a high-temperature-rated neodymium magnet to capture ferrous metal particles and protect transmission internals
• Designed to fit multiple Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep models with precise OEM compatibility

Construction & Design:

The PPE transmission pan is precision cast from premium A356.0-T6 aluminum alloy, known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. The deep cooling fins on the exterior not only increase the heat-wicking surface area but also reinforce the pan’s structural integrity, making it more resistant to impacts and deformation. Inside, strategically placed baffles promote consistent fluid flow and maximize thermal contact between the transmission fluid and the aluminum surfaces, ensuring efficient heat transfer and stable transmission operation.

Every detail, from the robust drain plug magnet to the reinforced pan walls, reflects PPE’s commitment to quality and long-term reliability.

Installation & Fitment:

This transmission pan is designed for direct bolt-on installation on the following vehicles: Dodge Charger (2006–2019), Dodge Challenger (2008–2014), Chrysler 300 (2005–2014), Dodge Durango (2011–2013), Jeep Wrangler JK (2012–2018), and Jeep Grand Cherokee (2005–2013). Installation requires standard hand tools and basic mechanical knowledge.

Note for Jeep Wrangler JK (2012–2018) owners: installation requires the use of an exhaust spacer kit or an aftermarket Y-pipe to provide adequate clearance for the exhaust system.

What's Included:

• One PPE Heavy-Duty Cast Aluminum Transmission Pan
• Drain plug with high-temperature neodymium magnet
• Gasket for leak-free sealing
• Installation hardware
• Detailed installation instructions

Ideal For:

This transmission pan is perfect for vehicle owners who demand enhanced transmission cooling and durability, including:

• Performance enthusiasts who push their vehicles hard on the street or track
• Off-road drivers requiring improved transmission protection under heavy loads
