OPTIONAL ADD-ON: GET THE FULL SNAP RING RETENTION SOLUTION

In addition to the 68RFE Input Clutch Hub Retainer Drill Jig, SunCoast has designed a Snap Ring Retention Solution package with everything you need to solve your problems. As an optional add-on to the input clutch hub retainer drill jig, you can choose to add the following in one convenient 68RFE solution:

Input Clutch Hub Snap Ring Retainer

Machined from 6061-T6 billet, SunCoast's Input Clutch Hub Retainer follows the patented SunCoast design of encapsulating the snap ring in a recessed pocket, ensuring there is no potential for the snap ring to come out of the groove.

The secure placement of the snap ring is further reinforced by three Torx screws meticulously positioned within counter-drilled pockets, eliminating the necessity for additional machining to clear the Underdrive Piston.

Billet Snap Ring Retainer

SunCoast's 68RFE Snap Ring Retainer is manufactured from 6061-T6 billet aluminum stock. It is made .040" taller than the factory one to increase spring load. By adding additional spring load tension, we prevent expansion and blowing off, causing catastrophic damage. This retainer is also manufactured with anti-rotational tabs to ensure no movement occurs.

This SunCoast Billet 68RFE Snap Ring Retainer must be used in conjunction with the factory snap ring.

M3GA 4C Snap Ring Retainer

The 68RFE 4C Snap Ring is known for blowing out from the center support. This new SunCoast Billet 4C Snap Ring Retainer is a permanent fix. This spring-loaded piece encapsulates the snap ring effectively, preventing this from ever occurring again.

Ring Gear Thrust Washer

It is not uncommon to see the thrust washer that rides on top of the 4C reaction ring gear fatigue and break at times into several pieces. When this failure happens, it leads to catastrophic consequences. The factory unit is also manufactured from plastic making it ineffective under high thrust loads.

SunCoast's solution involves a complete redesign aimed at enhancing reliability and durability to avert future failures.

Crafted from a solid billet of 6061-T6 aluminum, this new SunCoast piece is a testament to durability. Moreover, its engineering incorporates redesigned angled oil slots, ensuring improved fluid feed to the 4C clutches and superior load distribution compared to the factory model. This revamped component stands as an essential addition to any 68RFE transmission rebuild, guaranteeing enhanced performance and longevity.
