Cody down at superstick just got my nv4500 back to me for my fummins project. It’ll be my second trans from them, the first being a g56. 10/10 highly recommend
Where can we order an Ethan Patterson valve body and is the one you put in specific for towing or how can we order the same one? I need to do the exact same upgrade to my 68RFE so this video was perfect...thanks guys!
I hope not to need anything else for my 68rfe other than tunes when I get rid of the h&s mini maxx. That's a sweet looking vb though. I will be excited to see how it holds up with more use in the future. Hopefully you can update us at the next fluid/filter change for it.
Been meaning to do atleast a VB/Deep Pan also, but with money how it is now.. it’s just hard to make myself, since there’s no current issue with trans. Maybe I’m the owner of one of the 1% of 68s that can handle outrageous numbers, all stock. (LOL: KNOCK ON WOOD!)
I have a 2010 6.7 with 130,000 km on it. Young guy who had it before me tuned it and ran the shit out of it. I had it a week and got some bad shifts and some slipping. Is it worth upgrading my stock tranny or just getting a built one
I just rebuilt my 68rfe myself. The Casing cracked from pan all the way around to the pan. I put the bd diesel kit with the extra od/ud clutches and dpc triple converter. Truck doesn't feel like the power is making it to the tires. I couldn't even tell I put that converter in it. The bd diesel valve body plate makes you drill a hole in the valve body I'm wondering if that is bleeding off my line pressure
I would consider doing a valve body on my 08 but I don't have a scan tool that can do the re-learn, and the amount that you need for a scan tool that can do that is just ridiculous
I have a question I've been out of the diesel truck market for quite a while looking at buying a new one what kind of tuner or readout do you have there on the dash and do you have to do anything extra to see the line pressure
I just had a high dollar Suncoast 68 and converter put in my 14...notice it has a flare up or converter locking issue when lightly accelerating ? Any ideas ??
Would you recommend these upgrades for a 6.4 gas 2500 with the 68RFE? Unfortunately my trans went out a few weeks ago and I’m waiting on a new one from Chrysler with NO eta….sucks terribly.
@@horsetorquesdiesel who tuned your truck? I have an efi live tune going on but I do not like how trans acts. Unless I just need to get that valve body and it’ll help it?
Honestly I do not know I’d hit up Ethan www.wp-diesel.com/product/wpd-68-vb/15?cs=true&cst=custom&fbclid=IwAR0PkPoLY7DrlYE_617HIa6U_8UyrS3zNXvbJW25W89b6C71fKP2uqUAlJA
Yes absolutely it's fine. That's actually low, when you get to working it hard like a mountain pass 230-250 is normal. My car runs 230-250 oil temps to run more emission friendly. So don't sweat it!
Ford fluid? 🤔 might have to try that in my 48re. I got a full billet shaft and triple disk and it feels like there's some slip when I get on it. Sounds like slip that comes from atf+4 ?
@@horsetorquesdiesel thank you for the response but whats the most boost/hp you would daily drive arp2000 on? would it be better to just get the 625’s off rip
@@horsetorquesdiesel R68RE are you lucky if you get 100Kmiles out of it before blowing up, its not R48RE...dodge went backwrads and made garbage tranny
I’ve been a mechanic for over 35 years and I did not know that for a long time I used to leave them off most of the time until one blew out on me I just thought you’d like to know I’m one of them people who loves to keep learning something everyday if possible can’t get enough. Your doing great keep it up love watching your video’s seen them all
I can live without a drain plug, but what really really pisses me off is a lack of dip stick! My BMW is all electronic and it's fuggin annoying never knowing how much trans fluid I have, gotta pull the transfer case to access the damn fill hole and finger it lmao.
@@horsetorquesdiesel Ive used merclll before as a top off but never as a complete fill. Well i lied i did do it once with a lube gaurd fluid converter.
How hard is it to put a drain plug in it, I swear the engineers had to sit down and smoke crack before designing these trucks, my 2007.5 6.7 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4, I've changed so much crap to make things easier to work on. From completing an entire delete, new Black Market Fuel Filter swap out for that junk Plastic Fuel Filter that ended up leaking. New GR Diesel Valve Cover to delete that stupid CCV Filter, a complete AC System, and a few other mods, the next thing is to install the REVMAX Valve Body, get rid of that stupid Plastic Nippele that broke off and helped ruin my Transmission at 188,600mi that I had to replace so I bought the PPE Filter and Steel Nippele, next is a new Transmission Cooler and lines.
