Features:
If you're ready to retire your factory 68RFE before it leaves you stranded, the ATS Stage 1 Transmission Package is built to be the upgrade your 2012-2018 RAM 2500 or 3500 2WD Cummins has been waiting for. This package tackles all the weak points of the stock setup, giving you the reliability you need whether you're hauling heavy, daily driving, or running a mild tune. ATS replaces the problematic factory sprag with a robust roller clutch design, and increases clutch pack surface area throughout the transmission to better handle power and heat. One of the biggest game-changers here is the Co-Pilot controller. It works behind the scenes to improve line pressure, shifting, and converter lock-up without any need for tuning. The added deep pan not only cools the transmission more effectively, but also helps stabilize the case under load. You can finally get the power to the ground without worrying about burned clutches, erratic shifts, or failure from heat and pressure. This setup is the right call if you're looking for confidence on the road and longevity in your build.
Behind the performance of this ATS Stage 1 68RFE package is a complete reworking of the transmission’s hydraulic and mechanical foundation. Inside, the rotating clutch drum is rebuilt with upgraded pressure plates and larger surface clutch packs, increasing holding strength in forward, overdrive, 2C, and 4C clutches. This helps maintain clean, fast engagement even at higher torque levels. The billet channel plate inside the valve body eliminates cross-leaks and warping, which are common causes of sloppy shifts in the factory design. Additional flow to the clutch packs reduces fill times and improves shift consistency under load. The redesigned pump and pressure regulator deliver smarter line pressure response, matching hydraulic output with engine demands more precisely. Every seal, piston, and gasket is replaced and upgraded to withstand long-term stress. Combined with the Co-Pilot’s real-time pressure control and shift timing logic, this package doesn’t just strengthen the transmission, it transforms how it responds in real-world driving.
