ATS Full Allison Conversion Kit, Stage 2 Transmission Build (ATS Built Transmission, Deep Pan, and Billet Input Shaft) Replaces 2-Wheel Drive 68RFE 2013-2014

68RFE TO ALLISON 1000 Conversion Kits For RAM 6.7L CUMMINS Common Rail ATS Diesel has engineered the first fully integrated Allison transmission swap for Cummins powered vehicles.

Backed by our proprietary TRANSLator technology and our exclusive, patent-pending Allison to Cummins Bellhousing, the ATS Diesel Allison Swap offers complete factory functionality from your late model Ram; from push button start to tow/haul mode, electronic range select and electronic transfer case functionality.

Our revolutionary new TRANSLator can-bridge module allows the Allison TCM to communicate with the Ram ECM and offers a seamless integration of all factory options on the truck with a nearly plug-and-play installation.

Our exclusive, patent-pending Allison to Cummins Bellhousing allows a perfect factory match between the Allison and the Cummins with no additional fabrication required. The all-new ATS Diesel Allison Conversion Kit includes all necessary hardware and software to install an Allison LCT1000 behind your Cummins.

ATS Diesel Performance Is Now Offering A Complete Kit So That Our Allison 6 Speed Automatic Transmission Can Be Installed Behind The Cummins 5.9L And 6.7L Engine. For those of you that are not satisfied with the Dodge automatic transmission behind your Cummins engine, the Allison 6 speed swap is an excellent alternative.

If you're looking for increased reliability and a transmission that will hold under the power of the Cummins you will find that the Allison LCT1000 built by ATS is superior to the factory transmissions offered by Dodge.

Dodge offered three basic transmission designs behind the Cummins equipped light duty 2500/3500 pickup trucks from 2003 to 2021. While ATS offers rebuilt versions of these three transmissions using heavy duty upgraded parts, they do not offer all of the benefits of a fully built Allison 6 speed automatic. 2003 to 2007 2500/3500 5.9L came with the 48RE 4 speed automatic transmission 2007 to 2021 2500/3500 6.7L came with the 68RFE 6 speed automatic transmission or 2007 to 2012 3500 Cab and Chassis came with the Aisin AS68RC automatic transmission 2013 to 2021 3500 came optional with the AS69RC automatic transmission Due to the nature of the Dodge 48RE, 68RFE, and AS68RC having very small shafts, gear sets and clutch packs, the factory Dodge transmissions require very extensive modifications and expensive hard parts to compete with a rebuilt ATS Allison 1000.

These parts include the hydraulic pump, clutch packs, shafts, and torque converter modifications to strengthen it to reliably handle the massive torque of the Cummins engine.

The Allison 6 speed automatic transmission comes from the factory with large shafts, clutch packs and gear sets. This gives the Allison a direct advantage over the 48RE and AS68RC Dodge transmissions. The AS69RC has similar size clutch packs, shafts and gear sets as the Allison, however, it does not have an ideal gear split so the AS69RC always seems a bit clunky and does not handle increased power levels well.

The AS69RC transmission also relies on engine derate that happens between all gear shifts, this engine derate makes for a very poor shift quality and massive drivability complaints. When all costs are taken into consideration with regards to what it takes to upgrade all of the small and under designed parts of the Dodge transmission, the upgrade to the Allison conversion could be argued as the most cost effective solution.

There are a few questions you should ask yourself when weighing the decision of whether to go with an ATS upgraded Dodge transmission or to replace it with an Allison conversion: Is your Cummins engine modified? Do you tow heavy loads for long distances? Do you have over-sized tires? Does your vehicle appear to be under stress with the workload you are putting it under? If you answered yes to any of these questions you are a prime candidate for the Allison transmission swap.

The 48RE transmission is very old technology that has been passed on for many years. Utilizing bands, hydraulic throttle valves and governor pressure to control shift timing, the 48RE transmission will never be a smooth shifting transmission or have the consistency of the newer designed transmissions.

The first three gears of the 48RE are spaced evenly while the 4th gear is a massive jump into overdrive. The big jump into overdrive creates a large RPM drop into 4th gear making it somewhat unpleasant for towing. The lock-up torque converter was added as an afterthought to the already outdated low-line pressure transmission making it difficult to control the application of the converter clutch providing unpleasant TCC shifts. If you're looking to tow a trailer at a higher horsepower, the 48RE transmission may not be the best transmission choice.

Although the 48RE can be upgraded to be extremely reliable and handle very high power levels, the shifting of an upgraded 48RE transmission still has the feel of an old school 4 speed automatic of the past. The 68RFE transmission has a fantastic gear split between its 1st through 6th gears providing an almost perfect gear ratio change.

The torque converter is a PWM design allowing for precise application of the converter clutch which provides a smooth shift. Unfortunately, this is where all praise for the 68RFE ends. The 68RFE transmission was clearly designed to be the least expensive to manufacture. As a result, there are many elements that must be upgraded in this transmission to make it reliable and handle higher power levels. Even the transmission case is cheaply designed and must be reinforced with a large aluminum pan and transmission brace over the top to keep if from cracking in half.

The 68RFE internals are actually larger versions of those found in a Dodge Caravan transmission that originally debuted in 1989. Chrysler used this basic design and adapted it to be used behind their gas engines calling it the 545RFE.

They then made a few parts in the 545RFE transmission a little larger again to then be used behind the Cummins which eventually became the 68RFE that we know today. The 68RFE can be rebuilt with upgraded parts making it a great shifting transmission but it is limited because of the small clutch packs, gear sets and shafts that make up the transmission. At the end of the day the 68RFE is just a Gas transmission that was placed behind the massive 6.7L Cummins engine.

Similar to the 48RE, the money spent in strengthening the internals of the 68RFE is likely better suited to be invested in the Allison conversion. If you were to spend the money to upgrade the internals of the 68RFE, you would still be left with a transmission that has clutch packs, gear sets and shafts that are nearly half the size of those in the Allison. For those that currently have a 2007 to 2012 Aisin AS68RC, upgrading to the Allison is the only logical choice.

The Aisin AS68RC transmission suffers from many of the same shortcomings as the 68RFE but also has its own unique issues. Currently there are limited hard part upgrades for the Aisin AS68RC and there are many areas that need to be addressed, not only for strength but for longevity. Factory replacement parts are 2 to 3 times the cost of conventional parts which drives the cost of rebuilding the AS68RC to a level that is unreasonable.

For these reasons, ATS decided to focus our efforts on making the Allison 6 speed conversion affordable for anyone that needs to replace their failed AS68RC. Another one of the benefits of the Allison is it learns your driving style, different drivers, power levels, habits etc, the Allison TCM will adapt to them all providing a smooth shift through all the ranges. Tap shifting capabilities and tow-haul are all still present as well.

For the 6.7L Cummins you can use the factory shifter and for older trucks you can purchase a new shifter, which can be installed in a matter of minutes and still has all factory functionality. Overall the Allison can handle more power, with more functionality and longevity than other transmissions. An Allison swap is a solid choice whether you want it for your daily driver, heavy towing, or want to take your truck down the sled pulling track.

What would be the best all around transmission for a person that tows, wants to use the power of their high horsepower Diesel, is looking for reliability above all and still would like to have the ideal shifting transmission? The Allison 1000 is the best option that is now possible behind the Cummins engine!

This does not mean you can take just any Allison 1000 transmission and put it behind the Cummins engine, as great as the Allison transmission is; the stock Allison transmission does have it's limitations and downfalls. The great news is the Allison can easily and affordably be upgraded to handle a very high level of abuse and high horsepower while providing reliability and longevity. In order to properly transplant the Allison transmission into the Dodge Pickup there are many areas that need to be addressed.

How the transmission is adapted to the engine, transfer case, cooler line adaptation, manual linkage, fill tube, transmission electronic control system, and driveline modifications are the basics.

This is another area where ATS shines, we have taken the time to cast a Factory fit bell housing and extension housing to replace the GM ones found on the Allison. The new ATS castings allow the Allison to transmission to bolt directly up to the Cummins engine with out any engine modifications. Yes, this means you no longer need a different engine adapter plate, different starter, flex plate and most importantly you no longer have to grind material off of the engine block to make clearance for the starter.

All of the factory wiring and fuel line brackets bolt to the original bell housing bolts as it came from the factory. The transfer case bolts up the back of the transmission and it's positioned perfectly allowing the drive lines to line up properly. When converting from a 68RFE transmission to the Allison depending on the year of the truck the engine calibration has to be re-flashed to a AS68RC or AS69RC calibration. This is as easy as using the factory Chrysler scan tool and loading the original factory calibration into the truck.

Once this step has been performed you can apply aftermarket tuning to your truck as you have in the past if you are after higher power levels or other engine tuning modifications. The other area where the ATS Allison conversion shines is in our electronics package.

Our Translator module bridges the gap between the Transmission Control Module (TCM), Body Control Module (BCM) and the Engine Control Module (ECM). When the factory Chrysler transmission is removed from the truck the BCM and ECM no longer receive information from the TCM, this causes a huge problem with the operation of the truck.

A few of these issues are:

  • Loss of cruise control, loss of factory remote start,
  • Loss of factory rear view camera, speedometer out of calibration, you can not shift to 4x4 Low range,
  • Loss of Tow Haul mode, Loss of Tap Shafter,
  • Loss of PRND 1,2,3,4,5,6 indicator on dash.

The ATS Translator module bridges all of this information making Everything work as it did from the factory. All functionality works perfectly allowing the truck to drive and operate as it did the day it rolled off the showroom floor!

Allison Conversion Package (Specific Parts Vary Depending On Year And Model)

Allison 6 Speed Transmission with Cast Cummins Bell Housing and Extension Housing Billet Five Star Torque Converter ATS Deep Pans Transmission Oil Pan Translator Transmission Controller with Plug and Play Wiring Harness Transfer Case Adapter Kit Shift Linkage Kit Dipstick Tube Cooler Adapter Lines and Fittings Transmission Mount

Allison Conversion Package Cost - The average cost for an ATS Allison 6 speed Transmission conversion is between $12,000 to $15,000.00 depending on what Year and Model truck you have. All of the ATS trans packages come with a 5-year warranty. We are in the process of releasing our Allison conversion kits to the public so you can provide your own transmission. As we release these year specific kits we will release pricing for the Kit less the transmission. Be aware that the stock Allison transmission is only good for stock power levels of the Duramax, which means when put behind the Cummins it is already pushed beyond its factory power rating so internal upgrades will be necessary.

Transfer Case – You should not have any additional cost or modifications associated with this part, any parts required are supplied with our kit. Drive Shaft - Some driveshaft work may be required. Worst case is you will need to shorten one, and lengthen one; each truck varies depending on year and model. Installation - Estimated time to do the complete install if done by a professional is about 12 Hours.

In summary the Allison swap will probably cost you about 20 percent more than upgrading your factory Dodge transmission and your truck will be down for about a week while the drive lines are being modified.

The end benefit will be well worth the extra money you spend on the upgrade swap. Reliability, smooth shifting, more power to the wheels, being in the optimal gear all the time, better acceleration, responsiveness, less maintenance cost and overall driving enjoyment are a few of the reasons the ATS Allison 1000 6 speed swap is so popular.

ATS has developed the most compressive and advanced Allison swap on the market, you will not find another Swap that provides the features that are offered in this kit.

Getting past the noise to a holistic view of the person
Format: Hardcover
In order to have effective conversations about difficult and controversial subjects such as abortion, euthanasia, and sexual ethics it is important for both parties to be on the same page. Otherwise, it is easy to make assumptions about the other person’s motives and end up talking past each other. Discussions turn into arguments where name calling and personal attacks are more common than a reasoned and thoughtful exchange of ideas. In my own experience, it has been difficult to speak up about many of these types of sensitive subjects in public because of fear that I will be labeled intolerant or bigoted. In fact, it appears our culture, as a whole, has descended into a shouting match where the loudest voice is either the secular one screaming about trigger words and safe spaces where no one can challenge your views, or a caricature of Christianity which writes off everyone who disagrees as a hopeless reprobate who is going to hell. In this cacophony, the Christian message of God’s redeeming love for humanity is drowned out in a sea of empty words. Voices shouting past one another, convincing only those who already agree with us. This situation that many Christians find themselves in, unable or unwilling to speak for fear of being attacked and shouted down is why the new book by Nancy Pearcey Love Thy Body is so important. I have been blessed to be part of both the manuscript review and the book launch team for this amazing book and I have to say that this may be one of the most important books for all Christians to read, especially those who wish to be more effective in the public sphere. Over the course of seven very accessible chapters she addresses the most pertinent issues of our times, from abortion, and assisted suicide to the hook up culture and the LGBTQ movement which is sweeping our nation and exposes a fatal flaw in the secular narrative. This flaw that runs through all of these issues is a fractured view of the person which splits apart the body and the mind. What results is a negative view of the body which tramples on human rights and dignity. The secular narrative is that the Christian view of the person is repressive and prudish, often denigrating the authentic self. They want to claim the high moral ground because their view is based on love and acceptance. Nancy’s book gives us the tools to get past the walls and barriers built up by secular buzz words such as “death with dignity,” “marriage equality,” and “pride” to the underlying worldview so we can be on the same page as those we are speaking with. In her words: “As we face the social ills of our own day, we must move beyond denunciations that can sound harsh, angry, or judgmental and instead work to show that the biblical ethic is based on a positive view of the body as part of the image of God.”

Clear thinking on contemporary confusion about our bodies.
Format: Hardcover
We live in a sound-bite society. A 30-second commercial exceeds our attention span unless it is cute, provocative, catchy or unusually funny. Many cannot sustain a thought longer than the time it takes to breathe. Our convictions are strong, they are popular, but they are typically backed by only a thin layer of thought. How can so many be wrong? I will go with the flow of the cultural consensus. As a new Christian, I read “The Christian Mind,” by Harry Blamires. It convinced me that Christians should think. Perhaps true Christianity begins as an admission of sin and an experience of the love and grace of God that we call conversion, but that is only the beginning. We are welcomed into a new found wealth of wisdom for living in God’s world. Growing holiness is the long, slow and sometimes painful journey back to Eden and the way things were meant to be. The Christian life involves the mind and living by revealed convictions. Yet, almost everyone in our culture today lives by a set of convictions of their own. They live by a set of self-discovered rules, ultimate convictions about life, love and the way things are supposed to be. They construct their own ethics out of these convictions. This ethic is fiercely held and savagely defended, but the foundation is very thin. The culture wars are fought on the worldview battlefield. It is the ethics behind the conviction and the thinking behind the thought that needs to be examined, challenged and ultimately changed. When we confront a non-Christian with the holes in their worldview; when we apply thought and fact and truth and history to their ultimate convictions we are shouted down with angry rhetoric. The thinking behind most practical worldviews is paper thin and ill-founded. And when the law of unintended consequences bites them they do not know why. We need to show them why. Christian apologetics is the intentional deprivation of another’s ‘God-Suppressor.” They know God, but they suppress that truth down because of their independent ethic and their perceived freedom in sin. Yet, it is God’s world and his rules apply. Reality bites and apologists show them why. Nancy Pearcey is a worldview apologist. Christians ought to live by a set of revealed convictions about God and man and truth and law and ethics. We are radically different from the world around us because we grow, like plants, out of another kind of fertilizer. We are nourished by divine wisdom. All the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are in Christ. (Colossians 2:3) In many ways, I cut my spiritual teeth on the writings of Francis Schaeffer. Through him, I learned to think like a Christian, and that the Christian need not be ashamed of his intellectual heritage. Now that my teeth are cut, I brush them with Nancy Pearcey writings. She is the echo of Schaeffer updated and applied to the modern world that Schaeffer prophetically warned us about. Her latest book, "Love Thy Body", applies the Christian mind to contemporary issues regarding our bodies. (Abortion, infanticide, euthanasia, transgenderism, stem-cell research, sex, marriage, and homosexuality.) It shows how to understand the thinking of the modern world and apply logic, fact, research, from a Christian mind to the hot-button issues of the day. It is a book that you really should read. It will make you think; like a Christian.

One of my all time faves and most-recommended books
Format: Paperback
I've read and re-read this book, shared with my spouse and children, and we collectively have purchased several copies with the intent to share. The author is incredibly educated, clear and concise, and spiritually gifted. She introduces revolutionary ways of looking at things that seem so obvious when she lays the scriptural groundwork you're probably already familiar with. It's like a combo of "yeah, DUH!!!" along with "HOW did I never see this??" In todays world with so many personal conflicts and confusing issues, Nancy will sharpen your understanding and resolve, and give you the tools to hold valuable and productive conversations with your loved ones. We are now branching out to other book in her repertoire and finding them similarly ground-breaking.

Accessible Anthropology from a Christian Perspective in a Postmodern World
Format: Paperback
I had this as assigned reading for an upcoming seminary class. Beforehand, I read a TGC review by David Shaw which was highly positive but also offered three weaknesses. He expressed them as a wish for: more concentrated space devoted to the Christian view of the human body as well as a schema that goes beyond creation, fall, and redemption and includes inaugurated and future eschatology; a section on secular worldview rather than piecemeal throughout; and worldview language without pushing for worldview as a category, which he saw as dangerous. I actually liked the secular worldview interwoven through each chapter and thought that was helpful. However, I agree with the other weaknesses, particularly Shaw's last one. I went ahead and found a journal article on the Christian view of the human body so I would have a frame of reference as I read. I'm so glad I did. I was not looking for something specifically Calvinistic, but leave it to Calvin to have written enough so that someone could analyze it! The name of the article is "Theology, Anthropology, and the Human Body in Calvin's Institutes of the Christian Religion" by Margaret R Miles in the Harvard Theological Review. I also have sources for eschatology and won't speak to these two topics that I felt were missing. What I will say is this. I got a much better idea of what's going on in secular thought because of Pearcey's readable style without any dumbing down of concepts. That alone makes Love Thy Body well worth the read. However, I was disappointed with the ending, particularly pages 258 to the end. On 258, she correctly states that "we do not create marriage so much as we enter into a pre-existing social institution." Then on 259, she states that "Christians are called to form a model society--the local church--to demonstrate to the world a balanced interplay of individuality and relationship, of unity and diversity". Further down the page, she quotes, "Human beings are called to reproduce on earth the mystery of mutual love that the Trinity lives in heaven." I don't have a problem with these statements in isolation. The Apostle Paul exhorted Timothy to 'save both yourself and your hearers', attributing to Timothy the ability to save in terms of his being a secondary means. However, in context of what Shaw describes as 'worldview as category', my question is this. Are we called to 'form' or create a model society or to enter into it? I would argue that believers enter the kingdom of God who sets the agenda. Do they 'reproduce on earth the mystery of mutual love that the Trinity lives in heaven' or is this a gospel imperative flowing out of gospel indicatives? I would argue for the latter. At another place, Pearcey uses the phraseology 'Christianity offers' but wouldn't it be better stated that 'Christianity is'? In framing her argument in terms of worldview, Shaw notes that she inadvertently undermines her own argument. I would add that we are pointed in the direction of our minds alone instead of towards our embodied persons (including our minds) joined to the resurrected embodied Christ. "We are...always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies" (2 Cor 4:8, 10).

Love Thy Body
Format: Hardcover
Love Thy Body, Nancy Pearcey Written for Tenth Grade upwards (My granddaughter will read it.) Excellent for group studies. A study guide is included in the back of the book. About a month ago Nancy Pearcey was kind enough to pull me into her pre-launch group for her new book, Love Thy Body. Her book was sent to me that I might read it prior to its release, the only requirement being that I write an “honest review.” Apologetics can be a rollercoaster ride for me. With each page I found myself saying, “Yes. OK, that’s good. Excellent! Pure gold.” Then again, “Push that a step further. A chink in the wall opened, but now a bit further. Just a bit more!” As Nancy Pearcey reminds her readers, we are not in a “cultural war,” but in a “rescue mission.” Apologetics aims at understanding the position of the “other” in order to find their weaknesses and demonstrate them so their logic falls on itself. Pearcey is an excellent cultural dissector. Every chapter addresses a specific cultural concern, those that are on the forefront of every Christian’s mind. Love Thy Body tackles issues of abortion, euthanasia, the hook up, sexuality, transgenderism, homosexuality, marriage and parenthood. Pearcey does a thorough job explaining the philosophical underpinnings of the dualist worldview splitting personhood and body supporting abortion that eventually evolves into the cultural disavowal of both gender and body. This dualist secular thought which prizes emotion over the body or biology I foundational to euthanasia, matters of sexuality, and the family. Pearcey defends the Christian scriptural worldview of the embodied soul created by God and redeemed, saved, and restored in Christ as the one that is truly freeing. She does this without using the Bible as a “battering ram.” "The main reason to address moral issues is that they have become a barrier to even hearing the message of salvation. People are inundated with rhetoric that Bible is hateful, narrow and negative. While it is crucial to be clear about the biblical teaching of sin, the context must be an overall positive message: that Christianity alone gives the basis for a high view of the value and meaning of the body as a good gift from God. In our communication with people struggling with moral issues, we need to reach out with a life-giving, life-affirming message. We should work to draw people in by the beauty of the biblical vision of life." There were times though, that I wanted stronger suggestions, “Get thee to a church!” But, again, this is apologetics. This is the wall-breaker. This is, “Oh, wow! Yeah! Now what do I do?” And in the hands of Christians, we should know what next to do. Sometimes repetitive, but that’s a good thing for students and people like me with short attention spans.
