- Advanced Hydraulics & Control: Features an upgraded valve body, an upgraded governor solenoid, and a heavy-duty governor pressure transducer with twice the burst pressure of stock to completely eliminate shuttle shifting. Line pressure is boosted to a commanding 190–200 psi.
- Enhanced Internal Lubrication: Includes a modified manual valve for lubrication in all gear positions, stock thrust bushings replaced with premium roller Torrington bearings, and a drilled intermediate shaft for superior oil flow.
- Robust Clutch & Band Packs: Built for durability with an increased clutch count (6 Direct, 5 Forward, 6 OD, 10 OD Direct) and a high-temperature, high-energy Raybestos band.
- Heavy-Duty Input Shafts: Equipped with a billet input shaft and a Billet "Big" fine spline input shaft to prevent shearing under heavy loads.
- Premium Fluid Management: Includes a rigid aluminum heavy-duty BD transmission pan that adds 2 quarts of extra oil capacity, features heat-dissipating fins, and utilizes a magnetic drain plug. A cooler line case saver and a BD auxiliary full-flow filter kit provide maximum filtration and drivetrain protection.
- ProForce 3D Triple Disc Torque Converter: Features a stamped-forged 1-piece cover to eliminate warpage, self-centering trapezoid teeth to decrease wear and chatter, heavy-duty shock-absorbing engagement springs, and furnace-brazed turbine fins. It utilizes robust thrust bearings instead of plastic washers and a riveted piston to eliminate vibration.
- ProForce Street/Towing Stall Optimization: Offers an enhanced stall speed tailored for street and towing applications. The torque-multiplying cast aluminum stator delivers lower RPM response than a stock converter, leading to more efficient operation, reduced heat buildup, and improved fuel economy.
When you are demanding more from your 2005–2007 5.9L Cummins (4WD with a TVV Stepper Motor), the factory drivetrain components quickly become the weakest link. The BD Diesel 1064234SS Towmaster 48RE Transmission & Converter Package is engineered as a perfectly matched, dyno-tested set designed to handle the massive torque loads of heavy towing, street performance, and daily driving. By pairing a heavily reinforced transmission with a high-efficiency torque converter, this package eliminates the common failure points of the stock 48RE, ensuring that your diesel's power actually makes it to the ground with ultimate reliability.
