Built To Handle The Torque Your 4WD Cummins Puts Down

If you have ever felt your 47RE struggle to keep up with the torque of your 1998.5-1999 Ram 2500 or 3500 4WD, you know how quickly confidence in your truck can fade. The BD Diesel Roadmaster Transmission and Converter Package is designed to bring that confidence back, giving your 5.9L Cummins a transmission that feels tight, controlled, and ready for real work. With an upgraded valve body and increased line pressure up to 200 psi, shifts come in firm and deliberate instead of soft and drawn out. That added holding power helps reduce clutch slip and heat, which is critical when you are towing, hauling, or putting the truck to work in low range. The ProForce torque converter strengthens the connection between engine and transmission, so throttle response feels more immediate and consistent. Additionally, the deep sump pan adds extra fluid capacity to support cooling during long pulls or heavy use. It is a well rounded upgrade that transforms the way your truck drives without sacrificing everyday reliability.

Advanced Hydraulic Upgrades

The BD Diesel 1064984SS Roadmaster package is engineered specifically for 1998.5-1999 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 4WD models equipped with the 47RE automatic transmission and 5.9L Cummins engine. Each unit is fully remanufactured and equipped with BD’s performance valve body, which incorporates an upgraded pressure transducer and PR valve to achieve approximately 200 psi of line pressure. This increased hydraulic force improves clutch clamping strength and promotes more consistent shift timing under load. A custom separator plate and upgraded shift springs help eliminate shuttle shifting, providing smoother and more controlled gear transitions. Furthermore, the modified manual valve ensures proper lubrication in every gear position, supporting long term durability of internal components. The included ProForce torque converter features a cast aluminum stator, a billet steel piston to reduce deflection, and a stamp forged steel front cover with furnace brazed turbine fins for enhanced structural integrity. Backed by a 24 month parts warranty and 12 month labor coverage, this package offers a balanced combination of performance and reliability for stock or mildly modified 4WD Cummins trucks.
