RE5R05A 2005 Nissan Armada 5.6L RWD – Remanufactured 5-Speed Automatic Trans
Description
Across grueling 14-hour municipal passenger transport shifts demanding continuous heavy passenger load cycling, internal carbon-metallic clutch packs hold 225 PSI clamp pressure without slip inside the Nissan Armada RWD RE5R05A Remanufactured Transmission engineered for 2005 Nissan Armada two-wheel drive commercial fleet passenger vehicles equipped with 5.6L VK56DE V8 engines.
The heavy-duty aluminum case houses wide-face planetary gear sets, multi-plate carbon clutches, and heavy roller bearings. Valve bodies feature updated pressure regulator valve sleeves to secure positive gear engagement under heavy driveline twist. The gearbox weighs 205 lbs dry, holds 11.0 quarts of Matic-S lubricant, and incorporates a rear slip yoke extension housing.
Key Features of Nissan Armada
Municipal fleet managers choose to buy Nissan Armada automatic transmission packages to eliminate first-to-second gear flares and stop countershaft bearing noise under heavy utility workloads. Every transmission receives complete teardown, casing ultrasonic cleaning, and precision valve body calibration.
- 5-speed automatic gear trains deliver broad torque multiplication tailored to 5.6L V8 power bands.
- Carbon-metallic friction rings eliminate shift slipping between forward speeds.
- Reinforced steel clutch hubs resist spline distortion under rapid commercial driver acceleration.
- Heavy-duty roller bearings stabilize planetary carrier runout under full throttle cargo hauling.
- Nissan Armada RE5R05A units incorporate updated pressure regulator valve sleeves.
- High-temperature Viton input and output seals prevent gear fluid loss under severe operating conditions.
- Magnetic drain plugs capture ferrous metal particulate to protect internal valve spools.
Torque Rating Gear Multiplication Matrix
Built to handle 385 lb-ft continuous input torque at 3,600 RPM, this transmission handles heavy cargo hauling without shaft deflection. Exterior case aluminum radiates operational heat to hold lubricant sump temperatures below 185°F under continuous tow loads. Gear reduction ratios span 3.84:1 first, 2.35:1 second, 1.53:1 third, 1.00:1 fourth, and 0.83:1 fifth gear overdrive.
Driveline Output Spline Interface Alignment
The transmission output shaft incorporates a 31-spline connection designed for direct engagement with rear driveshaft slip yokes. Concentric runout across the rear extension housing pilot holds under 0.001 inches, eliminating seal weepage. Bell housing patterns fit flush against Nissan VK56DE V8 engine blocks.
Pre-Service Inspection Operational Boundaries
Flush external cooler lines thoroughly and check input shaft pilot bushing fit prior to installation. This automatic gearbox is not engineered for truck drag racing, engine tuning over 400 horsepower, or towing trailers exceeding 9,000 lbs.
- Inspect external cooler line connections and hose clamps every 15,000 miles.
- Drain and replace automatic transmission fluid using approved lubricant every 30,000 miles.
- Inspect transmission crossmember bushings and rear mount bolts every 12 months.
Fleet Guarantee Package Shipping Manifest
Delivered with a 3-Year / 100,000-Mile commercial fleet warranty covering internal parts and certified labor. The rigid export crate holds the remanufactured five-speed automatic gearbox, balanced torque converter, shifter base seal, service bulletin sheet, and dynamometer spin test documentation.
