    So I have recently torn apart my transmission and here are the things I discovered. I have the 47re, a lot of people say those transmissions are junk. But, for almost 300k Miles, my transmission looked amazing. The only reason I tore it apart was to fix a leak from the pump seal and decided to...

    Hi all, I had a weird experience today while coming down a pretty decent grade: Early '04 Ram with what I have been told is a 47RE? It has a "Kickdown" if I recall correctly, kind of a weird shaped cylinder with a large lobe up fairly high on the drivers side of the engine bay, this is what...

    Hi all, I have a 1978 Ford F-250 that I have put a 1996 12 valve Cummins in with the 47RE 4x4 transmission. What do I need to make the transmission work as it should?

    Recently I have been rebuilding my transmission. It was leaking from the inspection plate. Not too bad but just enough to make me finally decide to drop the tranny. I am not a pro when it comes to transmissions. My guess was the leak was coming through the billet shaft. Maybe the shaft itself...

    So my 47re is finally starting to show some problems. Not very bad but just enough to make me want to start researching transmission parts. I am not the smartest guy in the world but I did watch a guy installing a manual valve body with a ratchet shifter in his truck. I figured that set up would...

    I have a 2001 2500 auto with 3:55. I tow with the truck regularly 12k-15k weekly. The auto is starting to concern me. I have an edge comp box but do not take it over 1x3. I’m not looking to build crazy numbers. I’d like to run the comp box and go with a hx-35 turbo over the hy-35. That’s about...

    Hello everyone, I am getting a core transmission rebuilt while my current one that is on the edge of its life is still in my truck. My question is will the transfer case I currently have on my truck mate up to the new transmission or is there some extra stuff I will need to do to get the old...

    Hello, as stated in the title, l was wondering if this is possible? Being that 2wd tail stocks for the 48re are really hard to find and are stupidly expensive, I wondered if this was possible and or if anyone has had any success with this swap. If you take the time to respond, Thank you...

    Lately I have been having an issue with my trans not wanting to shift out of 1st gear until I am going about 26-30MPH. I read some posts about it being a governor pressure solenoid issue or the transducer. Would the pressures reading good on a shop computer rule out the issue? I am looking at...

    Really don't know what to do at this point. Truck is holding 1st and 2nd gear and both will wait to shift until it reaches 2500 rpm. It's happened before and it was fixed when I messed with the TV cable. Right now it doesn't matter what the adjustment on the cable is or if the cable is even on...

    Hey guys, I just picked up a 1998 12 valve with automatic transmission. I have replaced governor pressure and transducer already. The problem is 2nd gear.. it shifts when it should through all gears but as soon as it shifts to 2nd gear there is a funny feeling to it.. best way to explain it...

    Aight kids, looking for some info. Buying a truck in a few days with trans issue. Gimme all your best guesses. Buying a 1999 dodge ram 2500 2wd. The story goes the breaks went out while towing a trailer and the dude panicked and threw it into park to stop it. Got it to stop. Now it's stuck in...

    Slowly fixing all the wrong things with my truck. I’ve fixed all the small things, now for the scary haha. My trucks transmission is sluggish when cold. It really likes to start in second when it’s cold. I’ve tried to let it warm up in neutral but it doesn’t help the issue. Once it warms up...

    I had to pull my valve body apart to clean it but when it went back together I had an extra metal check ball. All the regular check balls were there so I just ran it. Under load 1-2 shift is very hard if I just ease on it it's fine so I'm assuming it goes somewhere with the 1-2 shift? I found a...

It will respond to drive,M1 and m2 but feels...

    I'm thinking about buying a bd valve body and a suncoast cat 1 trans rebuild kit. Does anyone have experience with these? Would the be an issue mating these together? Will there be an issue with the 4.4 band lever and the valve body? Is this a wise purchase? Suncoast Category 1 450 HP 47RE...

    So I'm putting together my truck and I bought a gasket and filter kit, on the back of the box it says don't use gasket sealant, use oil soluble grease.. any help i could get to properly seal this up? As well as torque specs for the transmission pan. It's a 47re auto.

    Last week my 99 QCLB started REALLY hesitating to move forward. I was able to limp home, but the RPMs were way above what they should've been for 12mph 2 days before this happened I noticed 2nd and maybe 3rd gear starts, launch stutters, and lockup stutters. The lockup stutters only happened in...
