When a steel clutch plate in a 4T65E automatic transmission is scored, warped, or heat-blued, the friction material has nothing flat and clean to grip against, and the clutch pack loses the clamping force that drives each gear range. This is a single replacement steel clutch plate, SKU ADA-000587, selected specifically for 4T65E units built from 1997 through current production, weighing 2.85 lb.The 4T65E is a transverse front-wheel-drive automatic transmission used across a wide run of production years, and its clutch packs see high thermal load during normal operation. A single steel plate that has warped or developed hard spots will prevent the pack from applying evenly, which shows up as shudder on engagement, delayed upshifts, or a unit that slips under load before the friction material itself is even worn out. Swapping the offending steel is a straightforward correction that avoids pulling parts that are still serviceable.This listing covers the steel plate only. It does not include friction discs, apply pistons, seals, gaskets, filter, or any other rebuild component. If your job calls for a full clutch pack, a seal kit, or a filter, those are separate items. Review your teardown notes and your parts list before placing this order so the rebuild is not stalled waiting on pieces that were never in this listing.REMCO has been working in automatic transmissions since 1991. This plate is picked and inspected individually before it leaves, and the box includes a parts list so receiving can confirm what arrived. At 2.85 lb it ships as a compact, dense piece, consistent with a solid steel clutch plate of this application.Before ordering, verify that the transmission in the vehicle carries the 4T65E designation and that the model year falls between 1997 and the current year. Compare the outside diameter, inside diameter, and lug count of the plate to the one being replaced before finalizing the order. A worn or glazed steel plate causes clutch pack slippage and erratic shifts; replacing it restores the clamping surface the friction discs need to transfer torque cleanly. This listing is for a steel clutch plate only. It does not include friction discs, seals, gaskets, filter, band, or any other component. Confirm what your rebuild requires before ordering. Steel clutch plates in the 4T65E take direct pressure from the apply pistons every shift cycle; a single damaged plate contaminates the whole pack, so replacing it individually keeps the repair targeted and cost-controlled. One steel clutch plate, 2.85 lb. No additional pieces are included. The part number is ADA-000587 and it is pulled and verified against the catalog listing before it ships. Before ordering, confirm your transmission code is 4T65E and that the unit falls within the 1997-to-current application range. Match the plate dimensions to your existing stack before disassembly.
