We are now building the 45RFE / 545RFE with all Alto Red Eagle clutches including four Power Packs and the newly developed Sonnax Line Pressure Booster making it possible to override the factory pressure settings on a permanent basis. The factory transmission controller has always been a problem with this transmission. Combine 30% more clutch apply area with 30 PSI more line pressure and this is winning combination. All of this is going to make this a very strong transmission.

Fits 2000-up Dodge 4.7L V-8 2WD and 4WD and 2003-up Dodge HEMI 5.7L V-8 2WD and 4WD.

Combo Kit Rules: It doesn't get any better than this folks, now you can have your parts and save money too. You may be eligible for other discounts on any parts needed for your rebuild, if you buy them at the same time as the master rebuild Combo Kit. Torque converters can be deducted from any Combo Kit at the price charged in that kit and you'll still receive the same discount rate on that kit. Any other parts for that type transmission can be added to a Combo Kit at the same discount rate for that kit, if not already listed as an add-on / upgrade for that kit.

Build your own Combo Kit: Buy any 3 part numbers for the same type transmission at the same time that totals $450.00 or more and receive a 7% to 12% discount depending on what you buy.

#45-PP2. 45RFE / 545RFE / 68RFE Forth Clutch Red Eagle Power Pack. This Power Pack adds one extra clutch for a 33% increase in holding power plus better steels and clutch material. Cost $72.00

#45LPB / #68LPB. This family of transmissions uses a full range line pressure sensor mounted on the outside of the transmission for "closed loop" line pressure control. Due to this system, traditional methods of raising line pressure by changing the PR spring or valves have no effect. This Line Pressure Booster alters the pressure signal sent to the computer causing the computer to raise line pressure. The 68RFE has a 10-15 PSI increase and the 45RFE and 545RFE has a 15-30 PSI increase. Higher line pressure increases clutch holding power and torque capacity. Changes in shift feel will be noticed mostly under aggressive driving or loaded conditions. This part is ideal for heavy duty and modified vehicles and even stock transmissions when a little extra pressure is desired. No other modifications are required. The Line Pressure Booster installs between the pressure sensor and vehicle harness using OEM style sealed connectors. Simply unplug the vehicle harness and reconnect with one of these parts. Cost $49.00

Features & Benefits

• Increased line pressure

• Increased clutch clamping force and torque capacity

• Installs on outside of transmission

• Easy plug and play installation

Note: The higher pressure 45RFE booster cannot be used with the 68RFE.

Transmission Cooling: You must have a transmission cooler in your radiator regardless of what someone has told you for the transmission to last. Auxiliary coolers are just that, in addition to. Water cools 32 times better (faster) than air always, period. The transmission fluid comes directly from the torque converter at a much higher temperature than the water in your radiator and is cooled to the water temperature fast. Then it goes to the auxiliary cooler to be cooled far below the water temperature. If you don't need a cooler in your radiator why does GM spend all that money doing so? If you wanted to cool a red hot piece of steel fast would you stick it in water or air, see the point. For the best cooling you need both water and air cooling for the transmission to be cooler than the motor.

Dodge / Jeep Speedometer Gears

Many tire makers build their tires differently, so a 35-inch tire from one company to another may vary as much as a full inch.

The short shaft gears are for an electronic speedometer and the long shaft gears are for a cable driven speedometer. This is true most of the time, not always.

Jack Buddy

#JB. Safely support transmissions on your jack! 4R100 • 4R70W • 5R55E / N / W / S • A604 and many more! Many automatic transmissions have irregularly shaped oil pans. Ford RWD’s are known for this, typically making necessary the use of chunks of wood to level the unit on the jack to ready it for installation. Ask any R&R tech and they’re likely to admit to how awkward this can be. Unfortunately, too often we find this out when we hear an expletive shortly before a crash. Or when the tech is out for a week laid up with a strained back or, worst case, their career is ended. We decided to put pen to paper to solve this problem. We’ve developed this sturdy solution that has already been hailed as the new “must-have” shop item. The Jack Buddy is designed to fit the most popular, air-assisted under car transmission jacks that are equipped with ratcheting-style supports. They install in minutes! Cost $219.00
