Upgrade Your Cummins With Cooling Confidence And Rugged Protection

If you have ever worried about transmission heat while towing or hauling, this PPE black cast aluminum pan is the kind of upgrade that brings real peace of mind. Designed for 2013-2025 RAM 2500 and 3500 6.7L Cummins trucks, it replaces the factory plastic pan with a much stronger and more capable solution. The added fluid capacity gives your transmission more room to manage heat, which helps maintain consistent performance when the workload increases. Additionally, the deep external fins actively pull heat away from the fluid, keeping temperatures under control during long pulls or hot summer drives. The black finish gives it a clean, durable look that holds up well against corrosion and road grime. What makes this upgrade even more practical is the switch to a replaceable filter, which simplifies maintenance and cuts down on long term service costs. The built-in magnetic drain plug helps catch metal debris before it can circulate through your transmission. It is a solid upgrade that supports both performance and longevity without adding complexity.

Advanced Internal And External Design Focused On Thermal Efficiency

This transmission pan is built from A356.0-T6 heat-treated cast aluminum, a material known for its ability to transfer heat quickly while maintaining excellent strength. The precision casting process ensures a consistent fit that works seamlessly with factory gaskets and steel collars. Inside the pan, half-inch internal baffles are designed to control fluid movement, reducing slosh and improving fluid contact with the aluminum surface. Furthermore, the tall external fins increase surface area, allowing heat to dissipate more efficiently while also reinforcing the structure against impacts. These features work together to create a cross-braced design that enhances rigidity and durability under load. The included stainless steel drain plug features a high-temperature rated neodymium magnet and a Viton O-ring, ensuring a tight seal while capturing harmful particles. A built-in 1/8-inch NPT port allows for easy addition of a temperature sensor if you want more precise monitoring. To round it out, the included replaceable transmission filter mounts securely inside the pan, offering a more service-friendly setup compared to the factory sealed design.
