As no one bothered to reply, I posted on another thread but here's pics of carnage. Seems almost common to have this sort of thing happen although very few people have any pictures because they pay a shop to do the work

Cost just about $700.00 for everything to completely recondition transmission. Fitted all new clutch plates even though we could probably have re-used the originals Finally had time to put everything together. Made a 'low profile' transmission drain plug. Only 6mm drain bolt but way better than...

There was also a clip on the pin on the one I did, it prevents pin coming out of glass lifter

I just stripped the 42RLE out of son in laws Liberty. Guess the only way to get a decent trans is DIY or $5~$6,000 for an upgraded re-man? As 05 Liberty is only worth around $4,000 DIY is getting done. I just posted a few pics if you want to see whats inside case...

Recalls very rarely have a cut off point (because they are safety related) I've seen 17~18 yr old vehicles getting fixed under warantee. Just had a recall about 12 yr old Mazda driver side airbag (getting a new one next week)

As promised, some pictures of the carnage:thumbsdown::thumbsdown: gear teeth have wear about 1mm (approx 0.040") deep over the band shown One of the planetary gears broke in two which is what probably caused the rest of the wreckage? Picture of inside planetary, still a few teeth left...

I posted in how to section as I couldn't find where I posted about trans? Anyway, both planetary sets are trashed, one the gears have broken up and the other because of the broken teeth going where they shouldn't. The more I've researched the 42RLE, the more I find it isn't a very good trans in...

Taken quite q while but finally figured out what exactly is wrong with son in laws Jeep. (he only gets one day off a week and I can't physically do so much since spine surgery) full planetary has 'exploded' Front carrier/rear annulus planetary gears have broken up, broken teeth have destroyed...

Ain't even mine, it's stepdaughters and son-in-law's vehicle. I just do the major work on it I see I joined in 2009, guess that's when they first started having things go wrong with it? It's a 2005 and they still have it in 2016. There are faults with every vehicle ever made, either you live...

Care to explain? Are you running them without any oil? :icon_lol:

Well ain't you just a lucky pair then The truth hurts, not as much as an icepick in the eye, but, it still hurts. CDJ along with all the other manufacturers have been screwing people with second rate stuff for years, Modern engineering means that general failures can be controlled to within a...

He's in NH, don't they salt the roads there in winter? Without salt being washed off regularly it will rot in a bunch of places Personally, I think he has a point about DCJ (Daimler-chrysler-Jeep) though. My stepdaughters Jeep Liberty has warped both heads, real common problem with the V-6...
