ATS Diesel 3099322188 Stage Transmission Package Dodge Ram Cummins - 47RH 3 1996-Early 1998 2WD 5.9L

The ATS Diesel 3099322188 Stage 3 Transmission Package is a complete performance transmission solution engineered specifically for 1996 to early 1998 Dodge Ram 2WD trucks equipped with the 12-valve 5.9L Cummins diesel engine. This comprehensive package addresses the inherent weaknesses of the factory 47RH hydraulic transmission, transforming it into a robust, high-performance drivetrain component capable of handling increased power, heavy towing, and demanding applications.

Complete Package Includes:

• Fully rebuilt and upgraded 47RH transmission
• ATS patented Five-Star torque converter with billet 12-bolt cover and five square-tab lock-up clutches
• Billet 300M input shaft and forward hub with two-piece design
• ATS Commander Lock-Up Controller with in-cab adjustability
• ATS Deep Pan with finned design (adds 5 quarts fluid capacity over stock)

Key Performance Features:

• Modified transmission pump for progressively raised line pressure beyond factory settings
• Precision-machined pressure plates with additional forward and direct clutches
• High-performance bands, billet band strut, and billet accumulator piston
• Heavy-duty overdrive bearings for enhanced durability
• Modified valve body with Teflon sleeve to prevent throttle valve sticking issues
• Enhanced fluid circulation in park, reverse, and neutral
• Torque converter lock-up capability in any forward gear

The Stage 3 package is rated for trucks producing up to 600 horsepower and is ideal for moderate to extreme power applications, heavy towing, daily driving, and competition use. The included Commander Lock-Up Controller allows speed-based torque converter lock-up in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or overdrive, providing reduced transmission temperatures, quicker acceleration, and improved fuel economy. All ATS transmission packages are backed by an industry-leading 5-year/500,000-mile warranty.

Important Notes: This transmission requires a separate core charge. Professional installation is recommended. Some 2WD models with mechanical speedometer sending units may require a speedometer adapter (sold separately if needed).
