ATS Diesel 3099342188 Stage Transmission Package Dodge Ram Cummins - 47RE 3 1996-Early 1998 4WD 12V

The ATS Diesel Stage 3 47RE transmission package is engineered specifically for 1996-Early 1998 Dodge Ram 4WD trucks equipped with the 12V 5.9L Cummins diesel engine. In 1996, Dodge transitioned from the hydraulic 47RH to the partially electronic 47RE, featuring steel planets and an electronic governor pressure solenoid and transducer. The factory 47RE is notoriously the weakest point in the Dodge Cummins drivetrain, often failing even in stock form. ATS addresses these inherent weaknesses to create a strong, reliable transmission suitable for towing, daily driving, and racing applications.

Stage 3 Package Includes:

• ATS Built 47RE Automatic Transmission
• ATS Five-Star Billet Torque Converter
• ATS Extra Deep Transmission Pan
• ATS Billet 300M Input Shaft and Forward Hub
• ATS Commander Lock-Up Controller

Key Features and Modifications:

The Stage 3 package features ATS's patented Five-Star torque converter with a billet 12-bolt cover, five square tab lock-up clutches, a billet stator, and other modifications designed for heavy loads, reliability, and brute power. Enhanced clutch packs with increased clutch count in the Overdrive and Overdrive Brake positions provide much higher torque capacity, using premium Borg Warner and Raybestos clutches for strength and longevity.

The factory sheet metal strut anchor is replaced with a billet unit for precision band application, the plastic accumulator piston is upgraded to billet, and a 1:3.8 ratio apply arm applies the Borg Warner red lining band with performance friction material. The valve body receives extensive modifications including a Teflon sleeve for the throttle valve bore, the ability to circulate fluid in park/reverse/neutral, torque converter lock-up capability in any forward gear, and increased line pressure versus stock.

The Stage 3 build includes a billet 300M input shaft and forward hub featuring a two-piece design engineered to handle greater than stock power, earlier torque converter lock-up, increased towing weight, and racing applications. The Stage 3 is rated for approximately 600 horsepower.

All ATS transmission packages are backed by an industry-leading 5-year, 500,000-mile warranty. Every ATS transmission is dyno tested under load behind a diesel engine at full pressure and full lock-up torque before shipping.

Important: A separate core charge of $1,600 applies to this transmission package. This is a complete transmission assembly ready for installation.
