ATS 309-944-2284 48RE STG 4 PACKAGE W/ T.V. CABLE FOR 03-04 DODGE RAM 4X4 WITH 5.9L CUMMINS

The 48RE transmission is the weakest point on a Dodge Cummins truck. Not only do they fail on trucks with minor upgrades, but even trucks in stock form have been known to be too powerful. A heavy duty truck needs parts which can stand up to heavy trailers, stop-and-go commutes to work, or high-horsepower applications. Thats why ATS modifies the transmission to make it the strongest and most reliable part of your drivetrain. With the many shortcomings of the 48RE, none are more important than the clutch packs. This is what takes the power load and transmits it to the rear wheels.

We increase the clutch count in the Forward, Overdrive, and Overdrive Brake clutch packs which allow much higher torque capacity in each gear. Clutch material is also essential which is why we use Borg Warner and Raybestos clutches which has both high torque strength as well as longevity and reliability. Another important aspect is the hard parts on the transmission. The factory sheet metal strut anchor is replaced with a much stronger billet strut anchor, allowing more precision application of the band.

Along with the factory plastic accumulator piston is replaced with a billet unit as well. The apply lever is a 1:5.0 ratio apply arm, which applies the borg warner red lining band. This band features a performance friction material capable of holding higher power levels.

The valve body receives extensive modifications as well. We give the valve body the ability to lock the torque converter in 1st and 2nd gear, circulate transmission fluid in park/reverse/neutral, machine the TV valve passage and install our proprietary TV valve sleeve, and increase line pressure. The towing version will deliver smooth, quick, crisp shifts that enhance the drivability and operation of your transmission on the street and attached to a trailer. This is the valve body of choice for a street driven all-purpose truck.

It is a very aggressive valve body and a minimum of billet input shaft and flex plate are recommended.

Enhance the performance and durability of your Dodge Cummins truck with the ATS 309-944-2284 48RE Stage 4 Package. Being the weakest link in your truck, the 48RE transmission is prone to failures, especially under increased power demands. At ATS, we have meticulously engineered this transmission package to transform your 2003-2004 Cummins 5.9L 24V truck into a powerhouse, capable of handling heavy trailers, daily commutes, or high-horsepower applications with ease.

One of the key upgrades in this package is the clutch packs. By increasing the clutch count in critical areas such as Forward, Overdrive, and Overdrive Brake, we significantly boost torque capacity in each gear. We utilize high-quality Borg Warner and Raybestos clutches known for their strength and longevity, ensuring reliable performance under extreme conditions. Moreover, the transmission's hard parts are reinforced with billet strut anchors and accumulator pistons for enhanced strength and precision.

Our modifications extend to the valve body as well, with enhancements such as locking the torque converter in lower gears, improved fluid circulation, and increased line pressure for smooth and firm shifts. The result is a transmission that delivers outstanding performance both on the street and when towing, thanks to the Commander lock-up controller and upgraded clutch packs.

Included in this comprehensive package are essential components like the ATS billet input shaft and flex plate, new performance clutch packs with added friction, and precision machined pressure plates for improved durability. Additionally, the ATS 5 Star Viskus Clutch Drive Torque Converter and Extra Deep Transmission Pan further optimize your truck's transmission system for maximum efficiency and longevity.

The ATS 309-944-2284 48RE Stage 4 Package is specifically designed for early 2004 Dodge Ram 4WD models, providing a transformative upgrade for your Cummins-powered truck. Take your driving experience to the next level with this meticulously engineered transmission package from ATS.
