Fits ‘90-‘03 units only.
View Instructions Find a DistributorThe OE aluminum governor valves in listed Chrysler RWD units become worn because the soft-coat anodizing wears off. The valve is not being optimally supported in the bore because the OE valve land is narrow. Sonnax primary governor valve 12802-01 has been improved over the OE version in both material and configuration for greater durability and performance.
- Hardcoat anodized aluminum combats premature wear
- Includes longer valve land for better support to reduce bore wear and maintain shifting consistency
- Valve can also be installed into new governor bodies to prevent future wear from occurring
- Use of this valve will not change shift timing/governor pressure from OE calibration
- Drop-in Zip Valve™ installs quickly and easily
