Torque Converter
Install Guide: 1
• Wear-prone rear stator bushing completely replaced to prevent failure of the E clutch.
• Each valve body is remanufactured and vacuum tested to verify hydraulic control.
• Valve body accumulator dampers are replaced to combat known deterioration of the OE component.
• Fully remanufactured torque converter is tested for leaks, lock-up, concentricity, and balance. Upgrades exceed OE requirements and eliminate the possibility of front seal leaks, premature bushing wear, and vibration.
• All wear-prone valves in the completely remanufactured valve body are restored to stringent specifications and vacuum tested to verify proper function.
• Build specifications are checked by four different specialized technicians during the remanufacturing process to verify the correct application.
• Every transmission is cold-and hot-tested using a proprietary dynamometer testing program that includes fully synthetic automatic transmission fluid and a filtration system.
Every Fraser Engines remanufactured transmission is built, tested, and validated to deliver dependable performance, long service life, and smooth operation under real-world driving conditions.
What’s Included & How We Ensure Quality
A remanufactured and improved torque converter is included with every transmission at no additional cost.
To prevent front seal leaks, vibration, and premature bushing wear, all torque converters are thoroughly tested for leak integrity, lock-up operation, concentricity, and balance.
Every fully remanufactured valve body receives complete system correction and recalibration, then is tested independently prior to installation.
All wear-prone valves are restored to stringent specifications and vacuum tested to verify proper sealing and operation.
Each remanufactured transmission undergoes hot, cold, load, and simulated road testing using our proprietary CARS® (Computer-Aided Road Simulation) dynamometer program, replicating real driving conditions before release.
Warranty You Can Trust
All Fraser Engines remanufactured transmissions are backed by an industry-leading, no-hassle nationwide warranty, providing real protection and peace of mind long after installation.

The 47RE transmission is a four-speed automatic transmission developed by Chrysler, primarily used in heavy-duty Dodge/Ram trucks equipped with the legendary Cummins diesel platform. Known for its rugged construction, strong torque capacity, and ease of serviceability, the 47RE is a go-to choice for towing, hauling, and performance diesel applications.
Designed for rear-wheel drive (RWD) and four-wheel drive (4WD) configurations, the 47RE delivers dependable performance under extreme load conditions—making it a staple in the diesel truck community.
The 47RE features four forward gears with overdrive, providing a balance of low-end pulling power and efficient highway cruising—ideal for towing and long-distance driving.
Unlike its predecessor (47RH), the 47RE uses electronic governor pressure control via the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), allowing more precise shift timing and improved drivability.
Built to handle high torque output from diesel engines like the Cummins 5.9L, the 47RE is capable of managing heavy loads and demanding towing applications with ease.
The 47RE is equipped with robust planetary gear sets, durable clutch packs, and a strong transmission case—engineered to withstand the stress of commercial and performance use.
This transmission has a long-standing reputation for reliability in real-world work environments, especially in diesel trucks used for towing, hauling, and off-road applications.
The 47RE is highly adaptable for performance builds, allowing upgrades such as billet input shafts, upgraded valve bodies, heavy-duty bands, and high-stall torque converters.
The 47RE transmission is primarily found in Dodge/Ram trucks equipped with diesel engines. Common applications include:
Dodge Ram 2500 (1996–2002) – Paired with the 5.9L Cummins for heavy-duty towing and hauling
Dodge Ram 3500 (1996–2002) – Designed for maximum payload and commercial-grade use
Dodge Ram 1500 (select heavy-duty configurations) – Limited applications with gas and diesel setups
The 47RE transmission is ideal for drivers who need serious durability and torque-handling capability. Whether you’re towing heavy trailers, running a work truck, or building a performance diesel setup, the 47RE delivers consistent, reliable power transfer.
Its simple yet robust design makes it easier to service and upgrade compared to newer transmissions, making it a favorite among diesel enthusiasts and fleet operators.
