If you're looking to restore the performance of your Ford Explorer, Ford Ranger, Mazda Navajo, or Mazda B4000, the Zumbrota Drivetrain RMTM5R1F-8SN Manual Transmission is your go-to solution. This remanufactured transmission is engineered to meet the highest quality standards, ensuring that your vehicle operates smoothly and reliably.

Quality You Can Trust

The remanufacturing process of the RMTM5R1F-8SN is meticulous and thorough, involving a comprehensive three-step inspection:

  • Step 1: A pre-inspection checks for case cracks, excessive wear, and other OEM-specific issues.
  • Step 2: Component parts are measured to confirm they meet OEM specifications.
  • Step 3: A final inspection ensures that the unit is built to exacting quality standards.

Every internal part undergoes rigorous testing, including checks for shaft straightness, gear wear, and synchronizer performance. Seals are replaced, and each unit is dyno-tested to guarantee optimal operation, shiftability, and noise levels.

Unmatched Cleaning Process

Zumbrota sets itself apart with an exclusive hydro-blast rinse and sandblasting procedure for both internal and external components. This is followed by a proprietary shot-enticed deep cleaning, ensuring that your transmission is not just rebuilt, but revitalized.

Features

  • Three quality inspections throughout the remanufacturing process.
  • Pre-inspection to catch potential issues before assembly.
  • Second inspection verifies compliance with OEM specifications.
