Product Description
Tooling Required
- F-145740-TL01
- VB-FIX
The lube boost valve in Ford 8F24 and 8F35 transmissions controls how much pressure goes to the cooler and lube circuit of the valve body. The bore experiences heavy wear from multiple inputs, leading to hydraulic leakage that causes low pressures and overheating.
Reconditioning the bore and installing Sonnax oversized lube boost valve kit 145740-01K corrects circuit pressures and restores normal pressure.
- Hardcoat anodized aluminum valve combats premature wear
- Highly wear-resistant valve sleeve increases life of part
Symptoms

- Overheated converter
- Low TCC release pressure
Cause
Lube boost valve and bore wear causes loss of pressure to the cooler and lube circuits.
