RAM 45

The Ram 45 transmission comes with the high performance Sonnax Line Pressure Booster, Transgo Shift Kit, Second Clutch Red Eagle Power Pack. This Power Pack adds one extra clutch for a 50% increase in holding power plus better clutch material and Kolene steels, Forth Clutch Red Eagle Power Pack. This Power Pack adds one extra clutch for a 33% increase in holding power plus better clutch material and Kolene steels. Overdrive and Underdrive Red Eagle Power Packs are installed. Alto Red Eagle heavy duty clutch material on the other clutches, 11 5/8" heavy duty / performance torque converter (#45T) with a carbon fiber clutch, all bearing construction and furnace brazed fins. You can order stall speeds up to 3400 RPM. The newly developed Sonnax Line Pressure Booster makes it possible to override the factory pressure settings on a permanent basis. This is something that couldn't be done before now. Plus you can upgrade to a deep cast aluminum pan with fins that holds over 3 extra quarts of transmission fluid (#8X, $235.00). The price includes a free PATC T-shirt and we pay the freight up to $110.00. This means the freight runs from free to $140.00 after freight discount in most cases. All of this can be yours without a trade-in for $2899.00. Be one of the first to get the RAM 45 transmission for your Hemi. We have had a zero percent failure rate on this transmission with motors under 500 horse. This transmission is rated at 500 horse power only. Return your transmission core for a $300.00 refund less the freight to get it here. Call 1-888-8771008 to order.

We are now building the 45RFE / 545RFE with all Alto Red Eagle clutches including four Power Packs and the newly developed Sonnax Line Pressure Booster making it possible to override the factory pressure settings on a permanent basis. The factory transmission controller has always been a problem with this transmission. Combine 30% more clutch apply area with 30 PSI more line pressure and this is winning combination. All of this is going to make this a very strong transmission.

Fits 2000-up Dodge 4.7L V-8 2WD and 4WD and 2003-up Dodge HEMI 5.7L V-8 2WD and 4WD.

68RFE Low / Reverse Roller Clutch

#68RC. Replace the failure prone low / reverse sprag in your 68RFE transmission with this much stronger roller clutch. This is the main weak point in the 68RFE transmission. If you have a performance engine and tow heavy loads this is the part you need. The 68RFE low and reverse clutch is only on when the output shaft speed is below 150 RPM. So when your doing hard accelerations or burnouts and the driveshaft speed reaches 150 the clutch releases and drops back on the low and reverse sprag. The OEM type sprag will not tolerate this too many times before it will flip the drive dogs. Result is no 1st gear and 2nd gear starts. Cost $625.00

#68SPRAG. 68RFE New OEM Low / Reverse Sprag. Cost $69.00

45RFE / 545RFE / 68RFE Power Packs

#45-PP1. 45RFE / 545RFE / 68RFE Second Clutch Red Eagle Power Pack. This Power Pack adds one extra clutch for a 50% increase in holding power plus better steels and clutch material. To have enough clutches and steels to fit a 68RFE you must buy 2 second clutch Power Packs. Cost $51.00

#45-PP2. 45RFE / 545RFE / 68RFE Forth Clutch Red Eagle Power Pack. This Power Pack adds one extra clutch for a 33% increase in holding power plus better steels and clutch material. Cost $76.00

#45-PP3. 45RFE / 545RFE Overdrive and Underdrive Red Eagle Power Packs. This is two Power Packs in one kit. This has 25% more clutch apply area in both Power Packs. Ten single sided clutches in both Power Packs plus two thicker clutches to make adjustments. Comes with one special backing plate. Cost $143.00

45RFE - 545RFE - 68RFE Line Pressure Booster

#45LPB / #68LPB. This family of transmissions uses a full range line pressure sensor mounted on the outside of the transmission for "closed loop" line pressure control. Due to this system, traditional methods of raising line pressure by changing the PR spring or valves have no effect. This Line Pressure Booster alters the pressure signal sent to the computer causing the computer to raise line pressure. The 68RFE has a 10-15 PSI increase and the 45RFE and 545RFE has a 15-30 PSI increase. Higher line pressure increases clutch holding power and torque capacity. Changes in shift feel will be noticed mostly under aggressive driving or loaded conditions. This part is ideal for heavy duty and modified vehicles and even stock transmissions when a little extra pressure is desired. No other modifications are required. The Line Pressure Booster installs between the pressure sensor and vehicle harness using OEM style sealed connectors. Simply unplug the vehicle harness and reconnect with one of these parts. Cost $49.00

Features & Benefits

• Increased line pressure

• Increased clutch clamping force and torque capacity

• Installs on outside of transmission

• Easy plug and play installation

Note: The higher pressure 45RFE booster cannot be used with the 68RFE.

Caution: Tire Shredding Neck Snapping Torque !

If you desire demonstrative torque and incredible efficiency we have your stator option !

#8SS. Redesigned Velocistator blade count and profiles combine to improve the fluid coupling, transferring more torque to the rear wheels resulting in lower temperatures, increased fuel economy and vehicle performance. The Steel Velocistator Option can be added to the two above torque converters or bought separately. This stator will lower the stall speed approximately 500 RPM. The increased power of a modified diesel engine raises the stall speed of stock converters, which is detrimental to vehicle towing performance and drivability. We now offers this low stall steel stator for Dodge diesel pickup truck owners who have increased the power output of their engines for added towing and general performance. Greatly increased window opening size and increased fluid velocity allows us to provide you with the highest efficiency stator on the market today. The Velocistator is machined from high strength billet steel and built specifically for diesel engines with aftermarket power adders. The steel Velocistator is for very high torque engines. Fits 618, 47RE, 48RE and 68RFE torque converters. Can be substituted for the billet aluminum low stall stator as a $134.00 upgrade. Steel Stator Cost $299.00

To determine your tires true diameter in relation to determining what speedometer gears you need, measure from the ground up to the center of the axle then multiply by two. The actual run out of the tire can be as much as 2 to 3 inches less than what the circumference of the tire measures. In effect your tire has two diameters.

To determine your rear end ratio, raise both tires off of the ground, turn both tires at the same time one complete turn, at the same time count the turns of the drive shaft, this is your ratio.

The short shaft gears are for an electronic speedometer and the long shaft gears are for a cable driven speedometer. This is true most of the time, not always.

Dodge / Jeep 2WD / 4WD Speedometer Gears

#12DG. These gears are used with most Jeep and Dodge truck electronic speed sensors for the speedometer. You can increase or decrease the number of teeth depending on tire size to make your speedometer more accurate. The drive gear has 13 teeth and is machined into the output shaft. These are the late model type with a short shaft. Comes in 28 tooth to 43 tooth. Cost $39.00.

Dodge / Jeep Speedometer Gears

Many tire makers build their tires differently, so a 35-inch tire from one company to another may vary as much as a full inch.

The short shaft gears are for an electronic speedometer and the long shaft gears are for a cable driven speedometer. This is true most of the time, not always.

Dodge / Jeep Speedometer Gears

#12DG2. Early type with long shaft, used with 1966 up cable driven speedometers. (Also fits Dana 300 Jeep transfer case, except early type with screw-in speedometer housing.) (Out of stock on 29, 30, 31, 35, 38, 39, 40 tooth gears.) Cost $39.00.
