At the heart of it is a fully remanufactured 47RE paired with BD’s upgraded valve body, designed to clean up soft shifts and eliminate the annoying shuttle shifting that plagues tired stock units. Increased line pressure up to 200 psi helps the clutches apply with authority, which translates into firmer shifts and reduced slippage under load. The included ProForce torque converter is built to handle real diesel torque, giving you stronger coupling and better power transfer when you roll into the throttle. Additionally, the deep sump pan adds extra fluid capacity to keep temperatures in check, especially when towing or hauling. Small but critical upgrades like the billet band strut and cooler line case saver are there to prevent common failure points before they ever become a problem. When you want a transmission that feels solid, dependable, and ready for daily driving or weekend towing, this package delivers peace of mind with every mile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eEngineered Valve Body And Converter Upgrades For Long Term 47RE Durability\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BD Diesel 1064972SS Roadmaster package is a comprehensive solution built specifically for 1996-1998 Ram 2500\/3500 trucks equipped with the 5.9L Cummins and 47RE transmission. It features a fully remanufactured transmission assembly that retains OE clutch counts while integrating a BD modified valve body for improved hydraulic control and shift consistency. The upgraded pressure transducer and PR valve raise line pressure to approximately 200 psi, increasing clutch holding power and reducing heat caused by slippage. A custom separator plate and upgraded shift springs refine shift timing and eliminate shuttle shifting, which helps stabilize operation under varying throttle inputs. Furthermore, the modified manual valve ensures lubrication in all gear positions, supporting internal component longevity. The ProForce torque converter includes a cast aluminum stator, a billet steel piston to reduce deflection, and a stamp forged steel front cover with furnace brazed turbine fins for added strength under load. Backed by a 24 month parts warranty and 12 month labor coverage, this package is engineered to provide reliable performance for stock and mildly upgraded Cummins applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Fitment: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1996, 1997, 1998 Dodge RAM 2500\/3500 2WD 5.9L Cummins\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt for 1996-1998 Dodge RAM 2500\/3500 5.9L Cummins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned specifically for the 47RE transmission\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransmission is fully remanufactured, not new\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes BD valve body modifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLine pressure increased up to 200 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeep sump pan adds two quarts capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackage includes BD ProForce torque converter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest for stock or mildly upgraded setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEstimated install time is 7 hours 30 minutes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParts warranty is 24 months\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabor warranty is 12 months\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCore charge of $2,500 required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e50-state legal and no CA EO required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProp 65 warning label\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"file:\/\/\/C:\/Users\/edgar.ramirez\/Downloads\/(I-00235)%20Dodge%20Transmission%20Instructions.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstall Instructions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BD Diesel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53955149332764,"sku":"BDD1064972SS","price":4525.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0738\/2279\/8108\/files\/roadmaster-transmission-and-converter-package-47re-dodge-ram-2500-3500-5-9l-cummins-1996-1998.jpg?v=1772467355","url":"https:\/\/www.alligatorperformance.com\/products\/bd-diesel-1064972ss-roadmaster-transmission-converter-package-47re-1996-1998-dodge-ram-2500-3500-5-9l-cummins","provider":"Alligator Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
