Mopar (and other) transmissions

When the TorqueFlite completely replaced the PowerFlite, it seemed Chrysler would have just one transmission; then the A-904 was split off, and eventually there were a few different TorqueFlites. In time, the rather small number of three-speed and four-speed manuals and three-speed automatics gave way to a bewildering array of domestic and then ZF-engineered transmissions; the latter built both by Former Chrysler and by ZF itself.

The following transmissions are covered by Motales:

Ultradrive and related four speed automatics
41TE, 42LE, A-604, and those which came after

HP9 / 9x8TE ZF 9-Speed Automatic Transmission
Inside the innovative ZF transmissions used by Dodge, Jeep, and Chrysler - including Mopar mods

New Process Gear and New Venture Gear: The Companies and Their “Gear”
Quietly innovative gear, transmission, and transfer case makers

Mopar A-Body 8¾ Inch Axles
Diving into axle basics and specific applications for the bigger A-body Hotchkiss setup (Dodge Dart, Plymouth Duster, etc.)

The following list of transmission sales codes was created by Mopar in 2022, and covers all their transmissions from the 1980s up to 2022... NVG is New Venture Gear, a company Chrysler owned after buying GM’s share. AX is from the former Borg Warner. Transmissions with a name starting with “C” are from Fiat.

Automatic Transmissions and CVTs

A CVT is a continuously variable transmission. These were purchased from JATCO. Chrysler made nearly all of its own transmissions for a long time; major automatic vendors have been Aisin and ZF. Jeep historically used Borg Warner.
