Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1064164BM TorqueMaster 47RE Transmission and Converter Package is the proven heavy-duty solution for 1996–1998 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 trucks equipped with the 5.9L Cummins 12-Valve and 4WD. When you need a transmission that can handle real towing, hard street use, and added horsepower without giving up drivability, this matched BD package delivers. Every transmission and converter set is dyno-tested together for maximum performance and long-term reliability.
This TorqueMaster package includes key reliability upgrades that address common 47RE weaknesses. You get an upgraded valve body and governor components, increased line pressure for better clutch holding power, upgraded bands and bearing support, and a heavy-duty aluminum transmission pan that adds capacity and improves temperature control. The included triple-disc enhanced stall torque converter is built for street and towing use with upgraded friction components and a stronger cover to prevent warpage under heat.
