It is a focused solution for automatic transmission service where the original flexplate has cracked, warped, or worn beyond reuse.

What It Helps Fix

• Cracked or fatigued flexplate material
• Engine-to-transmission engagement noise caused by a damaged plate
• Vibration from an out-of-balance flexplate
• Starter ring gear tooth wear on the flexplate
• Drivetrain issues related to incorrect flexplate dimensions

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify tooth count, outside diameter, and pitch before installation to confirm the FRA-561 matches the original part. Inspect the starter, torque converter interface, and related fasteners during service so the replacement flexplate is installed on clean, undamaged mating surfaces. Because this is an automatic transmission flexplate, proper alignment and torque procedures are important for reliable operation.
