A727 Torqueflite Forward Clutch Disc Spring for Chrysler Dodge Jeep 1964-1973

Restore Forward Clutch Performance In Your A727 TorqueFlite Transmission

The Chrysler A727 TorqueFlite (also known as the TF8, 36RH, and 37RH) is one of the most legendary automatic transmissions ever produced, found in nearly every rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive Dodge, Plymouth, Chrysler, and Jeep model equipped with a V8 engine from the 1960s through the early 1990s. When it comes to keeping this transmission shifting correctly, the internal components of the forward clutch assembly are critical — and the Belleville piston return spring is one of the most overlooked wear items in this pack.

This forward clutch disc spring (OEM part# 1942015) is the wide notch style specific to A727 transmissions built from 1964 through 1973. Over time and miles, this spring can crack, flatten, or lose its tension, leading to symptoms such as delayed forward engagement, slipping between gears, inconsistent 1-2 shifts, or a soft, mushy feel when selecting Drive. Replacing this spring during a clutch service or full transmission rebuild is essential to restoring factory-correct clutch apply pressure.

This replacement spring is manufactured to original equipment specifications for proper fit and function. It is sold individually (one spring per order) and is compatible with the A727 in all Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, and Jeep applications from 1964 to 1973.

• Direct-Fit Replacement For A727 Torqueflite Transmissions (1964–1973): This forward clutch disc Belleville (Belleville-style) piston return spring is engineered to OE specifications and replaces OEM part number 1942015. Wide notch design is specific to 1964–1973 applications — do not confuse with the narrow notch style used in 1974 and later units.
• Restores Proper Forward Clutch Piston Function: A worn, cracked, or fatigued Belleville spring is a leading cause of delayed engagement, slipping in forward gears, or harsh 1-2 shifts in the A727. Replacing this spring restores the correct pressure behind the forward clutch piston for smooth, positive gear engagement.
• Broad Fitment Across Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, And Jeep Vehicles: Compatible with A727 (TorqueFlite 8 / TF8) equipped Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, and Jeep models from 1964 through 1973, including muscle cars, trucks, and SUVs running V8 engines with rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive configurations.
• OE-Quality Construction: Built to match original factory specifications in both material and dimensions, this spring delivers the same tension and durability as the factory original. Sold as one (1) spring per listing.
• Essential During Any A727 Rebuild Or Forward Clutch Service: Whether rebuilding your transmission from scratch or servicing the forward clutch pack, this spring is a must-replace item. Inspect for cracking, loss of tension, or deformation any time the forward clutch piston is removed.

Note: This is the wide notch version (OEM# 1942015) for 1964–1973. For 1974 and later A727 applications, the narrow notch version (OEM# 3743621) is required — verify your year before ordering.

Fits: A727 / TorqueFlite 8 / TF8 in Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, and Jeep vehicles — 1964 through 1973, V8 applications, RWD and 4WD.
