Description

The ATS Built 47RE Transmission Package represents the first partially electronic transmission offered in the 1996-1998 Dodge 5.9L Diesel. Starting in 1996, Dodge went from the hydraulic 47RH to the partially electronic 47RE. The 47RE features steel planets as well as an electronic governor pressure solenoid and transducer. In re-designing the 47RE, ATS addressed inherent weaknesses to produce a strong, reliable transmission for towing, daily driving or racing.

The modification process began with the torque converter. Instead of a stamped converter with a single lock-up clutch, the ATS Stage 1 47RE comes with our patented Five-Star torque converter. Utilizing a billet 12 bolt cover, five square tab lock-up clutches, a billet stator and other modifications, this converter is designed for heavy loads, years of reliability and brute power. The goal is to efficiently transfer power through the converter into the transmission.

In order to handle the increased efficiency of the converter, we addressed the 47RE from bellhousing to tailshaft. The transmission's pump is modified to progressive raise line pressure, above the factory settings, to provide clamping force to the clutch packs. High-performance clutch packs are then added. Pressure plates are precisely machined to add 1 more forward and 1 more direct clutch. High performance bands, billet band strut, billet accumulator piston, and heavy duty overdrive bearings strengthen the clutch pack/band assembly.

Next is the valve body. Dodge 47RE transmissions can be plagued by sticking throttle valve issues. The valve controls shift timing and fluid flow to the clutch packs. When the valve sticks, there can be a no up-shift condition. In time, this can wear on the clutch packs and internals to hasten the transmission's life. ATS machines the bore to accept a Teflon sleeve, this ensures precise movement and control of the valve. In addition, the valve body is modified to circulate fluid in park, reverse and neutral, capable of locking the torque converter in any forward gear, and raising line pressure vs. stock.

Features:
  • Five Star billet torque converter
  • Performance transmission pump
  • Modified high performance clutch packs/bands and steels
  • Valve body built around reliability and increased transmission life
Stage 1 Transmission
The Stage 1 (as well as all ATS Transmission Packages) comes standard with the ATS Deep Pan. Featuring a finned design to dissipate heat, and adding five quarts of fluid vs. stock, the pan helps keep the transmission running cool. The ATS 47RE Stage 1 is designed for trucks with stock to mild power increases, light towing and daily driving.

  • ATS 5 Star Viskus Clutch Drive Torque Converter
  • ATS Extra Deep Transmission Pan
Stage 2 Transmission
On the Stage 2 builds, ATS adds a billet 300m input shaft and forward hub. Featuring a two-piece design, the input shaft is designed to withstand greater than stock power, torque converter lock-up sooner than stock, increased towing weight and racing applications. The increased capacity comes from the material itself, which is stronger than the factory input shaft. This is coupled with a precisely engineered shaft, directed at absorbing torsional loads from increased power, and transferring it into the transmission.

Stage 3 Transmission
On the Stage 3 we include the ATS Commander Lock-Up Controller. This controller allows the user to base lock-up on vehicle speed. Torque converter lock-up can be moved to 1st, 2nd, 3rd gear or overdrive and can be changed at any time. Our controller features in-cab adjustability, so settings can be changed with the push of a button. Every time the vehicle reaches the set speed, the converter locks. The benefit of early lock-up is reduced transmission temperatures, quicker acceleration and better fuel economy. The ATS Commander Lock-Up Controller will also synchronize lock-up with an exhaust brake, for additional braking force.

Stage 4 Transmission
For added strength at power levels above 450 hp, the ATS billet flex plate is included on the Stage 4. The flex plate is first hard part in the transfer of power from the motor to the torque converter/transmission. As more power over stock is added, the OEM flex plate fails to hold and eventually cracks or breaks. This means the loss of all motion in the vehicle. ATS billet flex plate features a stronger material than stock, precisely machined surface for a perfect fit, and the peace of mind needed to handle power and towing weight.

Stage 5 Transmission
Under extreme power or race applications, the stock intermediate shaft becomes a liability. The Stage 5 utilizes a billet intermediate shaft to absorb and transfer extreme power through the transmission. This shaft, arguably, is the most important since an intermediate shaft failure will result in complete transmission failure.

Stage 6 Transmission
Going one step further, we also address the transmission output shaft and transfer case headgear. During boosted launches, or when towing substantial weight, the transmission output shaft and/or transfer case headgear can shear. ATS precisely machines the shafts from billet 300M and matches both pieces to each other. This ensures shock load is absorbed and transferred from the rear of the transmission to the transfer case.

Warranty Information: 
ATS Automatic Transmissions carry a FIVE YEAR/FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND MILE (5 yr/500,000 mile) Warranty. This Warranty shall not apply to any automatic transmission that has been improperly stored or installed. This Warranty shall not apply to misapplication, improper operating conditions, accidents, or neglect. This Warranty shall not apply to an automatic transmission that has been improperly repaired, maintained and/or altered by the owner or his agent/tech. Most importantly, all transmission shafts are not covered by this Warranty on any transmission due to the capability of certain situations to cause stress-loads beyond the structural ability of the shaft. ATS’ Automatic Transmission Warranty is NOT transferable. It is mandatory for implementation of this warranty that line pressures are tested at time of install. ATS will not pay for any fluids replaced in the event of a transmission failure.
