Features:
If you're building a stronger, more reliable 47RE or 48RE transmission for your 1996–2007 Dodge Ram 5.9L Cummins, don’t overlook the small but crucial components—like the ATS Billet 4.2 Ratio Band Lever. This isn’t just another replacement part; it’s a performance-focused upgrade designed to improve how your transmission grabs second gear under load. Whether you're towing heavy, daily driving with mods, or putting down more power than stock, this lever helps make sure your shift timing and clutch engagement are on point. The 4.2 ratio is key here. It increases the mechanical advantage applied to the second gear band, giving it more bite when it needs to lock up. That translates to firmer, more positive shifts—especially important in tuned or hard-working trucks. It’s a noticeable difference you’ll feel when pulling a trailer up a grade or launching off the line with added torque.
ATS builds this lever from billet material for excellent strength and durability. Unlike cast or stamped steel levers that can flex or wear over time, this one holds up to repeated abuse without breaking a sweat. It’s a smart investment if you're already inside the transmission doing a rebuild, installing a shift kit, or upgrading servos and bands. Backed by ATS’s solid reputation for diesel performance parts, this billet lever gives you one more piece of the puzzle when aiming for a crisp, consistent shift—and a transmission that lasts. It’s a simple part that plays a big role in overall drivability and long-term reliability.
