T31 Input Clutch Drum 24263508 New Version

The 6T31 Input Clutch Drum 24263508 is a later-design automatic transmission hard part developed for professional repair and rebuilding of selected 6T30, 6T31 and related transmission applications. The component is commonly identified as the 4-5-6 and 3-5 Reverse clutch drum and forms an important part of the rotating clutch assembly inside the gearbox.

Current transmission parts catalogs identify 24263508 as the later Gen 2 / Gen 3 drum design using a three-ring configuration. It differs from earlier first-generation drum designs, which means technicians should confirm the original component before replacement rather than selecting the part only according to the transmission family name.

The drum operates under repeated hydraulic pressure, clutch application force and rotational load. Accurate dimensions, sealing surfaces and clutch-support areas are therefore important for reliable transmission rebuilding.

This product is suitable for professional automatic transmission workshops, gearbox rebuilders, automotive parts distributors and wholesalers sourcing 6T31 transmission hard parts.

Before ordering, customers should compare the original drum, sealing-ring design and reference number to ensure correct matching.

6T31 4-5-6 and 3-5 Reverse Clutch Drum

The 6T31 Input Clutch Drum works with clutch components responsible for several transmission operating ranges. Parts suppliers commonly describe 24263508 as the 3-5 Reverse and 4-5-6 clutch housing or input clutch drum.

During transmission operation, hydraulic pressure applies the clutch packs inside the rotating assembly. The drum provides the structural housing required to hold related clutch components and maintain correct mechanical alignment.

During a gearbox rebuild, technicians should inspect the drum for:

• Worn clutch contact areas
• Damaged sealing surfaces
• Spline wear
• Cracks or deformation
• Abnormal wear around support areas
• Damage caused by overheating or clutch failure

A worn or damaged clutch drum may affect the operation of the clutch system and should be inspected together with friction plates, steel plates, pistons and sealing components.

24263508 New Version Drum Design

The 24263508 Input Drum is associated with the later three-ring design in the 6T30/6T31 transmission family. One specialist catalog lists it as a Gen 2 4-5-6 / 3-5 clutch drum with three sealing rings, while another catalog groups the same part with Gen 2 and Gen 3 applications.

This is important because the earlier transmission version can use a different drum structure.

For accurate identification, customers should provide:

• Transmission model
• Original input drum photos
• Original reference number
• Number of sealing rings
• Clutch housing design
• Vehicle information if available

If the part number is not visible on the original component, clear photos of the drum and sealing-ring area can help with matching.

Difference Between Early and New 6T31 Input Drum

The new and old versions should not be treated as identical products.

The later 6T31 Input Clutch Drum associated with 24263508 uses a three-ring design, while earlier 6T30-family Gen 1 drums are commonly cataloged with four rings and reference 24231648.

For transmission rebuilders, distinguishing the two versions before assembly helps reduce parts-selection errors.

This is especially important when the transmission has already been rebuilt previously, because the parts currently installed in the gearbox may not always correspond exactly with the original vehicle production configuration.

We therefore recommend checking the physical drum rather than relying only on vehicle model or production year.

Professional 6T31 Transmission Rebuilding

During a complete 6T31 transmission repair, the input clutch drum should be inspected together with surrounding hydraulic and friction components.

Related inspection items may include:

• Friction plates
• Steel plates
• Clutch pistons
• Sealing rings
• Bushings and bearings
• Hydraulic passages
• Valve body components
• Transmission fluid condition

If friction plates show abnormal wear or signs of overheating, technicians should inspect the drum surfaces and related clutch components carefully before reassembly.

The 6T31 Input Clutch Drum provides a replacement option when the original later-design drum has been confirmed as worn or damaged.

Professional transmission assembly procedures and correct clutch clearances are recommended after replacement.
