Specifications

The 68RFE Transmission is a six-speed automatic transmission used in Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks with the 6.7L Cummins diesel engine. It has a strong cast-aluminum body and upgraded internal parts to handle the high torque of diesel power. The transmission uses three planetary gear sets and a fully electronic control system to deliver smooth and reliable shifting. Its adaptive learning feature adjusts shift timing based on how you drive, helping improve performance over time. The gear ratios (3.23 in first gear down to 0.63 in sixth) are designed to give you good towing power at low speeds and better fuel efficiency on the highway. Overall, the 68RFE offers a solid mix of towing strength and everyday driving comfort.   


Transmission Variant

68RFE in Ram 2500 / 3500 Trucks

When paired with the 6.7L Cummins Turbo Diesel, the 68RFE transmission offers a balance of torque capacity, reliability, and refinement. Later models benefited from updated valve bodies, improved clutch materials, and enhanced software tuning, which improved shift timing and thermal management. These refinements provided smoother operation under load and greater resistance to heat a critical factor for towing and performance applications. Enthusiasts often view the 68RFE as the ideal foundation for performance transmission builds, thanks to its strong architecture and extensive aftermarket support. With upgraded internals, billet components, and custom tuning, a built 68RFE can comfortably handle 800+ horsepower and 1,000 lb-ft of torque, transforming a heavy-duty Ram into a true performance powerhouse.

68RFE Crate Transmission

A 68RFE crate transmission is a brand-new, ready-to-install replacement unit built to meet or exceed factory specs for Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks equipped with the 6.7L Cummins engine. It comes fully assembled with fresh internal components, updated hydraulics, and improved durability features to handle heavy towing and high-torque demand. Unlike used or rebuilt options, a crate 68RFE offers consistent performance, smoother shifts, and long-term reliability, making it a dependable choice for restoring or upgrading your truck’s drivetrain without the hassle of rebuilding the original transmission.
