Product Description
ATS 47RE Stage 1 Transmission Package for 1998.5-Early 1999 5.9L Cummins 4WD
The ATS 309-914-2218 47RE Stage 1 Package is built for 1998.5 to Early 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 4WD diesel trucks equipped with the 5.9L Cummins and 47RE automatic transmission. ATS positions this Stage 1 package for stock to mild power increases, light towing, and daily driving, making it a strong upgrade for customers who want better reliability without stepping into a higher-stage transmission package.
The 47RE already uses steel planets along with an electronic governor pressure solenoid and transducer, and ATS reworks the platform to address known weaknesses for a stronger, more dependable transmission package. Product listings consistently call out ATS engineering aimed at improving durability for towing, daily driving, and performance use.
A major part of the package is the ATS Five-Star billet torque converter, which uses a billet 12-bolt cover, five square-tab lock-up clutches, and a billet stator to handle heavy loads and improve long-term reliability. The Stage 1 package also commonly includes the ATS Deep Pan, which features a finned design for heat dissipation and adds five quarts of fluid over stock capacity to help keep transmission temperatures under control.
