Overview
The Lube Locker transmission pan gasket, part number LLR-A042, is a steel-core, rubber-coated gasket made for the 42RLE 4 speed transmission.
The gasket has full perimeter elastomer beading on both sides, which is designed to keep it from splitting or extruding during installation. It is also designed for good torque retention.
Key features
- Steel core with rubber coating
- Full perimeter elastomer beading on both sides
- Dry installation, no sealant needed
- Direct fit design
- Superior torque retention, per Lube Locker
Before you install
A pan gasket works by compressing between two flat surfaces, so the pan flange and transmission case need to be clean and undamaged before fitting. Remove old residue with a plastic scraper, and check the flange for warping or deep scratches that could let fluid pass. Gaskets are generally replaced each time the pan comes off.
Tighten the pan bolts evenly in a crisscross pattern, and recheck them after the first few drives. After refilling, look under the vehicle for seepage at the pan edge over the following days, since small leaks often show up after the fluid has warmed up.
- Clean both mating surfaces before fitting
- Inspect the pan flange for warping
- Recheck pan bolts after the first drives
