Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1030418 47RE Exchange Valve Body is a performance-focused replacement designed for 1998.5–2002 Dodge Ram trucks equipped with the 5.9L Cummins diesel engine and the 47RE automatic transmission. This BD Diesel exchange valve body is fully reworked to improve hydraulic control, increase line pressure, and deliver firmer, more positive shifts compared to a worn factory valve body.
Each valve body is completely disassembled, inspected, and upgraded with BD Diesel modifications to address common 47RE issues such as soft shifts, clutch slippage, and excessive heat. This exchange unit helps extend transmission life while improving drivability under towing, daily driving, and light performance use. A refundable core charge applies.
