Product Description
Nissan RE5R05A HD Snap Ring
The original factory snap ring was very thin, narrow and flimsy on RE5R05A transmissions. OE RE5R05A rings also had a groove depth in the case being only 0.050'' deep the original design snap ring has no real support to keep in in place. Over time the flexing and "bowing" effects distort the ring and cause it to dish outwards then pop out of the groove. When this occurs the retainer plate, waved crest-to-crest release spring and piston will pop out of position and cause a no-move or slip/bind-up in reverse, also causing damage to the parts in the rear of the case.
Superior Transmission Parts has a fix for this! Install the K0108 snap ring, shown here, which allows you to custom fix your new snap ring to stay in place all the time every time!
