RE5R05A 2006 Nissan Frontier & Pathfinder 4.0L RWD – Remanufactured 5-Speed Automatic Trans

Description

Command 261 horsepower and a 0.83:1 overdrive cruising ratio while holding fluid sump temperatures below 185°F across demanding high-mileage interstate freight routes inside the Nissan RE5R05A Remanufactured Transmission developed for 2006 Frontier and Pathfinder 4.0L rear-wheel drive trucks. The unit provides instant hydraulic response under continuous highway throttle adjustments.

Precision-cast A380 aluminum casing structures minimize housing twist when operating under demanding vehicle payload limits. The internal gear set utilizes carburized steel sun gears positioned inside a ductile iron carrier framework. Upgraded anodized bore sleeves stop internal hydraulic pressure leakage past the valve body separator plate. The 10.4-quart fluid pan connects via 3/8-inch cooler lines, bringing total dry unit weight to 210 lbs.

Key Features of Nissan RE5R05A

Independent fleet operations buy Nissan RE5R05A automatic transmission assemblies to restore reliable driveline torque transfer across service routes. Every rebuild incorporates updated internal hydraulic valves that eliminate factory cross-leak vulnerabilities under sustained operation.

• 275 PSI sustained main line pressure holds clutch packs tight during uphill grade navigation
• 6 forward clutch friction discs maintain consistent surface contact without friction glaze formation
• 5-pinion planetary gearsets distribute mechanical tooth loading across case-hardened alloy pins
• 10.75-inch remanufactured torque converter includes furnace-brazed vanes to stop stall vibration
• 6 fast-acting PWM solenoids shift fluid channels within 42 milliseconds of computer command signals
• RE5R05A replacement unit features recalibrated accumulator springs to smooth aggressive downshifts
• 0.026-inch measured clutch pack clearances reduce parasitic friction drag during overdrive cruising

Hydraulic Ratings Torque Capacity

Main line fluid pressures operate from 210 to 275 PSI, keeping fluid sump temperatures between 160°F and 188°F under continuous driving. The drivetrain supports 281 lb-ft continuous input torque at 4,000 RPM under Severe Commercial Fleet service criteria. The thermal circuit dumps 460 BTU/min into external heat exchangers. Gear ratios stand at 3.84:1 first, 2.35:1 second, 1.53:1 third, 1.00:1 fourth, and 0.83:1 fifth.

Driveshaft Spline Mounting Dimensions

A 28-spline output shaft couples to the transmission slip yoke measuring 1.45 inches in diameter. The hardened parking pawl assembly holds 1,750 lb-ft static torque on elevated grades. Tailhousing flange runout stays inside 0.0025 inches total indicator reading to prevent center support bearing wear along two-piece commercial driveshafts.

Shift Control Maintenance Checkpoints

A complete TCM adaptive relearn cycle must precede normal street operation to set baseline clutch fill timing. This unit is not engineered for track drag racing, extreme rock crawling, or payloads exceeding vehicle manufacturer gross ratings.

• Verify oil level on the transmission dipstick at operating temperature each shift
• Replace automatic transmission fluid and clean internal magnets every 30,000 miles
• Adhere to cooler circuit flush guidelines using approved solvent every 12 months

Fleet Warranty Delivery Inventory

This unit features a 3-Year / 100,000-Mile commercial fleet warranty covering components against workmanship defects. The crated package includes a fully remanufactured transmission unit, balanced torque converter, cooler tube crush washers, an alignment manual, and an ATSG-standard dynamometer testing certificate.
