Billet Band Strut for 5.9L Cummins

If you’re building or refreshing a 47RE or 48RE transmission, there’s one small part that can quietly make a big difference in long-term reliability—and that’s the band strut. The factory strut in many 1989-2007 Dodge Ram 5.9L Cummins trucks has a reputation for flexing or bending under pressure, especially in higher horsepower or heavy towing setups. That flex might not seem like a big deal at first, but over time it can cause improper band application, slipping, and even premature transmission failure. That’s where the ATS Billet Band Strut steps in. This isn’t just a beefed-up version of the stock piece—it’s a precision-machined billet upgrade designed to eliminate flex and provide consistent, firm band engagement. Whether you're building a daily driver with mild tuning or a weekend warrior that sees its fair share of abuse, this strut adds peace of mind by reinforcing one of the most failure-prone points in the transmission. It’s a direct-fit part, so you don’t need to modify anything to install it. And if you’re already inside the transmission for a rebuild or upgrade, there’s really no reason not to swap it in.
