The Mishimoto thermal bypass valve kit replaces the failure-prone factory bypass valve found across Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep/Ram applications using the W5A580 (NAG1) 5-speed automatic. The stock valve withholds transmission fluid from the cooler until operating temperature, but its thermostat can fail closed — starving the cooler and overheating the transmission. This CNC-machined billet aluminum valve includes a fully serviceable thermostat for fast cold-climate warm-up, plus an installable thermostat-bypass insert for constant cooling in hot climates, towing, or off-road use, with machined internal passages and integrated cooling fins. Black anodized, installs in under an hour.
