Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1030374 68RFE Threaded Replacement Filter Adapter is a simple, permanent upgrade for 2007.5–2022 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 trucks equipped with the 6.7L Cummins and 68RFE automatic transmission. The factory plastic filter coupler is a known weak point — it can crack, strip, or break if the spin-on filter is over-tightened, and it can also allow the filter to loosen over time from vibration. This BD Diesel threaded adapter replaces the brittle plastic coupler with a durable metal threaded design so you can properly tighten the transmission filter without fear of damage.
Install this adapter during routine transmission service or any time you’re replacing the spin-on filter. It helps prevent leaks, reduces the risk of filter blow-off, and improves long-term serviceability on 68RFE-equipped trucks — especially on tow rigs and high-mileage daily drivers.
