Stop Letting A Weak Transmission Hold You Back

If your 2012-2018 RAM 2500 or 3500 4WD is still running a stock 68RFE, it’s only a matter of time before you run into issues, especially if you're towing heavy, running a tune, or putting down serious miles. The ATS Stage 1 68RFE Transmission Package is built to handle the real-world abuse these trucks see every day. From long hauls and steep grades to weekend projects and daily duty, this package is designed to hold strong where the factory setup just doesn’t. It comes complete with the ATS Workhorse torque converter, a reinforced transmission case, and the Co-Pilot controller to clean up shift quality and lockup performance. Whether you’re driving loaded or cruising unloaded, it adapts in real time to keep things smooth and responsive. If you’ve already started adding power to your 6.7L Cummins, this is the kind of drivetrain upgrade that keeps you from throwing money at repeat failures down the road. It’s a confidence booster for your build and a solid investment in your truck’s longevity.

Built To Correct The Core Weaknesses Of The 68RFE

The ATS Stage 1 Transmission Package addresses the major failure points of the 68RFE with a combination of hydraulic, mechanical, and electronic upgrades. At the heart of this package is a recalibrated valve body featuring a billet aluminum channel plate, which eliminates warping and pressure leaks under heat and load. ATS also reengineered the hydraulic circuits to improve clutch timing, line pressure ramp rates, and fluid delivery to all key components. The clutch packs themselves receive major attention, with increased surface area across the 2C, 4C, underdrive, and overdrive packs for stronger engagement and reduced wear. The weak factory sprag is replaced with a robust cam and roller clutch, backed up by the Co-Pilot controller that actively manages line pressure based on boost and throttle input. This dynamic control system ensures better torque transfer under load without sacrificing drivability during light cruising. All of it is backed by a deep transmission pan, billet pump upgrades, and a reinforced case to keep the transmission running cool and consistent under demanding conditions.
