ATS 309-952-2290 48RE STG 5 PACKAGE W/ T.V. MOTOR FOR 04.5-05 DODGE RAM 2WD 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. You can choose between a towing or a racing valve body.

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.

The race valve body is our hardcore power build. It is made to sacrifice as little time as possible between shifts, shift hard and fast, and leave nothing behind. It is a very aggressive valve body and a minimum of billet input shaft and flex plate are recommended.

The 48RE transmission found in Dodge Cummins trucks has been a common weak point, struggling to handle power in stock or upgraded vehicles. To address this vulnerability, ATS presents the ATS 309-952-2290 48RE Stage 5 Package specifically designed for 2004.5-2005 Cummins 5.9L 24V trucks. Please note that this product is subject to truck freight shipping rates, and our team will provide you with a shipping quote prior to processing your payment.

One of the key upgrades in the Stage 5 Package is the enhancement of clutch packs. By increasing clutch counts in vital components such as Forward, Overdrive, and Overdrive Brake clutch packs, the torque capacity in each gear is significantly boosted. The use of high-quality Borg Warner and Raybestos clutches ensures durability and long-lasting performance.

Furthermore, critical hard parts within the transmission are fortified for improved strength and precision. Factory components like the sheet metal strut anchor and plastic accumulator piston are replaced with superior billet alternatives. The valve body undergoes extensive modifications to optimize torque converter lockup, fluid circulation, line pressure, and shift quality.

Customers have the option to select between a towing or racing valve body based on their driving needs. The towing version offers smooth and crisp shifts suitable for street and towing applications. On the other hand, the race valve body is designed for high-performance driving, prioritizing fast and aggressive shifting.

Included in the package are top-tier components such as an ATS billet input shaft, billet flex plate, and billet intermediate shaft. The Commander lock-up controller, performance clutch packs, precision-machined pressure plates, and various other upgrades ensure superior performance and durability.

For 2004.5-2005 Dodge Ram 2WD trucks, the Stage 5 Auto Trans Package incorporates an ATS-built 48-RE Auto Trans, 5 Star Viskus Clutch Drive Torque Converter, Extra Deep Transmission Pan, and CoPilot Torque Converter Lock-Up Controller.

Gear up your Cummins truck with the ATS 309-952-2290 48RE Stage 5 Package and experience unmatched transmission durability and performance. Stand out on the road with a robust drivetrain that can handle heavy loads and high horsepower demands.
