Nate you’re the MF’ing Diesel Transmission Whisper’er!!! Thank You for the detailed explanation of what’s going on inside my 68RFE! I have a tranny service coming up but nobody I’ve spoken with has been able to explain exactly what’s going on & why the transmissions fail over time. Im currently not having issues with my 68RFE (Thank God!) and have just deleted & tuned (including the trans) on my ‘14 6.7 Cummins with only 56K on it; Im running the RR Moonshine tunes set between 60-hp & 175-hp (nothing too crazy) for engine longevity & was worried ‘bout ruining my 68RFE, I’m now confident with this future upgrade it’ll prolong the life & reliability of the transmission for the day2day driving, towing 13, 000-lbs (5th wheel) & occasional quick acceleration from stop lights🤙🏽Keep up the Great Diesel upgrade information videos Brother....God Speed &...FUCK GAS!!!⛽️ (I Love It👍🏽 Hahahaha!!! 😂)

I watched this video & I was sold. I went online ordered the street valve body set up. Let me tell you it’s worth every penny.

I ordered a 68RFE Xtreme tow rebuilt kit. I absolutely love it!! I did a Quick learn on transmission. it shifted a little weird at first, but I think it was part of the tranny learn process. I tow a 10, 000 lbs trailer and Thank you Nate. your Informative Vid game me confidence on purchasing kit

[mtbjim]

great vid Nate on explaining the issues and how your company has made solutions for them.

[bryankraus]

Best video ive ever seen in all of YouTube, thank you this helped me greatly

[travismitchell]

Can you make a video about your rebuild kits what comes with what kits and why things are added to transmissions to handle more power a lot of people do not understand basic transmissions including me, but you explained your valve body so well!

Just ordered me up a "bulletproof68" kit with the solenoid. Great video!!! Very informative.

[repomannv]

Great video, you had me at the 26sec mark with "valve body is lowest quality piece of shit"... just bought your setup and can't want to get it into my 2016 Ram 2500 throwing 0871 codes. Thanks bro.

I have a 4th gen 68RFE with 233k and have no known issues with it. I've been performing more of my own maintenance ever since I lost my business during covid to save money. On the stock valve body, I noticed what looks to be either mold casting lines that looks like cracks or possibly there's been some warping that has caused actual cracks. I never towed much while having my business. If there's a way to include a picture I will. I'd like to get an option out there if these are cracks or not, basically if this looks normal.

2017...So if I just got a Dealer Warranty Rebuild at 98k miles (108k miles now) that they did basically everything But the complete Valvebody. They said they did a piston or 2 in the VB and the solenoid pack, Fluid Pump, Torque Coverter, and other smaller things. But I still have the Bumpy and hanging/lag shifting, sometimes hard bump on down shifting. All of this on non hard driving. Worse of course with Up shifting on harder accelerating and especially when got a engine tune with Trans tune too. Also only 342 gears and 37" tires (literally 36"). Plan to do 38's or 40's with 456 or 488 gears.

Would just the $399 V4 DIY build kit do wonders and allow a higher shift pressure to not wear or beat up on the trans, or need more things replaced as in the $995 High Performance VB?

Does the $995 purchase include what's in the $399 VB kit or they're separate to purchase and install? One or both are easy enough DIY installed?

FYI...
It is a 130hp tune with TCM reprogram too. It is all for moderate and full emissions in place truck.

Love the video man! Very informative. Newbie to the diesel world. I got a 2017 Ram 3500 6.7 mega 22k miles

[eberhoozen]

I’m considering a 24 ram 3500 diesel/68rfe towing 15k 5th wheel. Should I look for Aisen or?

[andybda]

What would cause clunky 2 to 1 down shifts at real slow speeds like slowing down before my driveway. 48000 miles on my 68rfe. Stock trans

[EverydayDadTXCOWBY]

Do you guys have a recommended shop here in Sacramento CA that sells and installs these??

[wolfmanking]

hello there hope you still check comments out here . i got a ? is the 66rfe made just like the 68rfe you where showing here i have a 2016 2500 6.4 power wagon and would like to upgrade the valve body in it . thank you for any info on it

[jacoe]

Did ram ever update the 68rfe transmission? I am looking at a 2019. Is it exactly the same transmission as a 2007 when this trany came out?

[pumpsprecision]

Phenomenal video and great info. Playing here to stay was icing on the cake🤘 yall will be getting my future business for sure. If you are interested in extreme long range shooting I'd be interested in trading services. I have a built 68rfe from a local shop but he even told me the valve body may need upgraded. Dont know what he put in it but am having trouble with 2nd gear lockup. Then again could be tuning

[UncleJack]

Just found your video. If I buy this valve body up grade, what about the trans relearn? I think I can do this myself. But this is a lot of money. Can you talk about that.

[gb]

i just installed bypass in my truck temp dropped from 175 to 130 is that better?

[elulysero]

Will those sonnax pistons work on a 545rfe
