Our Stage 1 48RE transmission Is perfect for a rowdy street truck up to 700hp. This build is perfect for a truck with a solid tune, or even a turbo and a little more fuel. Boosted launches are not reccomended due to the OE Stock output shaft. If Boosted launches are wanted we reccomend upgrading to the stage 2 build.
The Chrysler 48RE transmission is a four-speed automatic transmission that was released in 2003 behind the 5.9L Cummins Turbodiesel.
