Product Description
The ATS 304-930-2272 48RE 2-Piece Billet Output Shaft is a heavy-duty transmission upgrade for 2003-2007 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks equipped with the 5.9L Cummins and 48RE automatic transmission. ATS describes the output shaft as a critical hard part in the transmission that transfers power to the wheels, and this billet upgrade is built to withstand the additional stress created by towing, larger tires, and increased power levels.
Built from billet steel and designed as a 2-piece output shaft, this upgrade is intended to increase torque capacity, improve reliability, and help prevent factory shaft failure in demanding towing and high-power applications. It is an excellent choice for diesel owners reinforcing a 48RE transmission for work, performance, or long-term durability.
FAQ
What does the ATS 304-930-2272 upgrade do?
It replaces the factory 48RE output shaft with a billet steel 2-piece unit designed for increased strength, torque capacity, and reliability.
Why upgrade the factory output shaft?
Factory shafts can become a weak point when power is increased or when the truck is used for towing, hauling, or oversized tire setups. This billet shaft is designed to better handle those added loads.
What is the benefit of the 2-piece design?
The 2-piece construction is specifically listed for NP transfer case applications and is commonly used in 4X4 setups.
Is this a good option for towing or performance builds?
Yes. ATS and dealer listings describe it as suitable for towing and high-power applications where increased torque capacity and durability are important.
Will this fit my truck?
This part is commonly listed for 2003-2007 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 4X4 trucks with the 5.9L Cummins and 48RE transmission.
