Re: [AMC-List] Trans Go > Silicone is NO GO <

Getting the work done was difficult, but I managed...

The gasket I bought was a Mopar 4295875-AC.  It was 12.69 + tax.  It 
fits plenty of AMCs and Chryslers (among other cars).

A picture of the gasket (or at least the shape of the pan) can be found 
here:

Applications can be found here:

The information was found on CarParts.Com.
