TREMEC Two-Wheel-Drive TR-4050 5-Speed Transmission Available Soon
TREMEC is excited to announce the release of a TR-4050 5-speed transmission for two-wheel-drive applications.

It’s also a great way to upgrade from a factory 5-speed with a significantly stronger unit.
Improve Jeep and 4×4 Performance with the TREMEC TR-4050 5-speed Manual Transmission
The Jeep Wrangler is an iconic off-road vehicle. But through the years, the various models haven’t always had the best manual transmissions. For example, the Jeep YJ (1987-1995 model years) and Jeep TJ (1997-2006) lacked a decent First gear ratio, and owners found the transmissions to be less durable once larger tires and weight were added to the Jeep, including heavier axles and other off-road equipment. The factory NSG370 6-speed transmission found in the Jeep JK (2007-2018) was better, but there was still room for improvement in the eyes of Wrangler enthusiasts. The superior First gear ratio and incredible strength of the TREMEC TR-4050 5-speed manual transmission has made it a desirable upgrade not only for the Jeep Wrangler, but also many other light trucks and 4x4 SUVs.
