Transmissions
Strictly Diesel has been repairing automatic transmissions for quite some time now. With these repairs, we have learned a lot over the years. Typically, a minor repair goes a long way, whether it be a solenoid replacement, band adjustment, wiring repair or just maintenance, – keeping your automatic transmission on the road is a priority to us here at Strictly Diesel.
With some trucks, now over 20 years old, some of these units are in need of more than just a repair. Hardened seals, worn out clutches and questionable internal parts are all in need of attention after time and mileage add up.
Here’s something that might speak to Dodge Owners…
For years Strictly Diesel has repaired, serviced, and redone the 47-48 RE platform that comes in the Dodge 2500-3500 trucks from 1998.5-2007.
As of November 2017 we are now offering an overhaul/rebuilt unit from Strictly Diesel. These will now be done in house under our control and our warranty. We have grown tired of the “well my neighbor knows a guy” that can overhaul and or rebuild these units, as well as our big aftermarket manufacturers who claim to build a Heavy Duty unit, but come so far from that when it comes to the longevity of the unit. Strictly Diesel recently purchased a 1999 Dodge 2500 to R&D with. This truck had a “recent” overhaul and was the perfect candidate to back up why we have so much troubles with the inexpensive and expensive rebuilds and overhauls.
Our tear-down and inspection of this unit found serious end play issues on the input shaft, excessive clutch pack clearances on all clutch packs, worn bushings, gasoline light duty planetary assemblies – the list could fill up this page. After sorting things out, we put back in this unit what was supposed to be there, including some 47RE- 48RE goodies, new electronics and a new single disc torque converter. The results are pretty amazing – how a few simple parts, that were omitted, and supposed to be there, make a difference.
The shift quality and firmness is much improved, so you can seriously feel the torque the motor puts out now. We are confident that we can help our customers even better now that we are offering these units with complete overhauls. At Strictly Diesel, we can fix your existing transmission, offer you our own build on certain models, Performance units from all the major builders in the industry, or get you a factory built unit if necessary.
Everyone likes options and we will give you the best bang for your buck with our transmission assemblies. We are driven to provide your transmission the care and attention you have come to expect from us.
As of 2018 Strictly Diesel is now a vendor for FSR Diesel Transmissions. These are a great option for your dodge pickup truck, with more options coming soon.
