How to Install a Cummins 47re 48re Transmission 

Myer needs a raise. He’s the man.

Myer is great! He's very sharp and obviously knows his stuff. He seems to think on his feet and offer lots of useful tidbits of information - bolt sizes are really handy to know. Maybe needs to just pause for breath now and then, and not worry about how he's coming across - he's a natural teacher and great in front of the camera! Love to watch and listen to more of him doing this kind of thing :D

Todd, have order a tranny, turbo, tuning etc… from you guys and every phone call has been pleasant. Gotten lots of great tips and really are doing a good job. Andy has been one of my favorites to deal with during a shipping delay from reddaway. Great customer service. Thanks

Any video with Myer gets an instant like !! 👍

Absolutely … The guys at PDD are awesome 👊🏻💪🏻

nice to see you back Myer!!

I've been doing this stuff for quite a while now and PPE is such a big deal after about the 3rd time of having metal removed from my eyes. Do yourself a huge favor and WEAR EYE PROTECTION! Nothing will ruin that new trans swap like a trip to the ER.

Awesome video love the shop and how helpful and the willingness to help

I appreciate the videos, i ran my transmission a bit over full ..its a good idea to check the pressures. . I was surprised how good a 48re shifted in my brothers truck shifted . My old 47rh that finally went out never shifted that good .. Thanks for the information on the pressures . I remember how low the pressure was on my stock 47rh at idle and lock up . Surprised it lasted long as it did .

👌solid episode guys thank y’all!

I want to drop my transmission in my 96 so bad and rebuild it myself. Too afraid of the bolts being too crusty and not being able to do it successfully. Thanks for making this video!

I’m about to order your diy trans kit to rebuild mine myself. Wish you guys had a video on rebuilding the 47re cause I’m a bit nervous but I’m sure it’ll be fine. Love the videos and your customer service has been absolutely great helping me with ordering my parts. Keep up the good work!

Awesome job Myer 💪🏻👌🏻

Can you use new fluid and the converter orpump to pull a continues supply of new fluid thru the system when changing fluids I've done a fluid change at 40k intervals with my 48re and it's the to do a third or rebuild with billet in and billetinternals. With a triple disc converter

i did this myself to just to replace the converter, the worst part of the job was that cross member, and how to get it in place.

Not me who just did this job twice and was only able to get 4/6 torque converter bolts back in the 2nd time cause I didn't know the flexplate had balancing holes 🙃

Nice on a 95 2500 can you upgrade dipstick tubes mine is oring and leaks

I have an 03 CR Cummins. It has a 47re. Can i swap it with an older 47re or does it need to be another 03? Really appreciate your tech videos. Thanks

Is it possible to swap a 47re to a 48re? if so where can I find harness adapters and oil line adapters?

It sure looks easy with a lift. I’ve done it twice so far with jack stands and a creeper. It’s such a mess pulling the pan that I got a hand pump to draw most of the fluid before I take it off. Your frame spreading jack is a bit cleaner than my bottle jack and 4x4 setup. The 4x4 held up but it was marginal. Bottle jacks don’t always like to work sideways. I laid mine down flat and filled it with all the hydraulic fluid it would take so the jack would work better while horizontal.

how did you get the transmission cross member in?

Awesome!

That’s my man

Why not power wash the underside/transmission before disassemble?

I have heard that stiff flex plates can cause other parts to give way. Does the HD flexplate still have enough flex when the rest of the transmission is billet and has no give. I am installing a rebuilt transmission and I am getting mixed messages for flexplates.

I am wondering how dose a transfercase hold up to 1000 hp range. Is there anything you need to do to that. Maybe a rebuild or any billet parts?

Hell Yeah Brother 🇺🇸🦅

Question, I’m seriously considering PDD as far as transmission build. As far as purchasing onsite, because my truck only has 88,000 miles, what’s the turn around time on using my core and having PDD install? Thanks

Did you need any gasket sealer when putting the transfer case on the transmission or do you just put it on dry

this may not be the place to ask, but what front brakes are you running on The Godfather? I am doing the front brakes on my 1999 and there has to be a configuration that is better than the stock setup where the unit bearing has to come out and the studs need to be hammered out.

whats the max psi the line pressure gauge reads to that you guys put in the truck?

To clarify, the at idle in neutral dipstick reading for the fluid sb just above the s bend?

Got your pan off kit you guy’s really should do a video on that there is no video on the install would be nice for concrete guy pretending to be a mechanic lol thanks

How about a video on why we should buy a rebuilt 47re from PDD and not some of your competitors, thanks in advance.

Wats the price on a trans for my 2001 dodge ram 2500 that has a 47re looking for something to hold up to 1,000hp or soo

How quick is damage done to a 47re from overfilling ?

Will a 03 47re fit in my 04 that’s uses a 04

I have a 47RE in my ‘94

That truck needs the idle turn up little bit

Lol that’s cute I called for my 5.9 12valve in my motorhome and got told ( from your rep on the phone you only do high performance trucks ) Looks like I’ll be looking on to other places to help me get more power

Hey... I didn't get an emailed response back from griffith.. (and to all the dang trolls that wasn't a dig! It simply reminded me as I am trying to buy a further upgraded set up from real proffesionals!)

First😎😀

I know I love mayonnaise and Felipe when I went up their and home girl in the front but I don't think she eats cause she's flacita really skinny and the kid that did my fire ring job can't remember his name

I heard WOT is looking for a trans guy...... just sayin.....

Why ruin a cummins with that crap?
