I remember talking with Dusty at HTS last year, and he had one apart. He did say that they were junk.

68RE or 68RFE?

 

[BgBlDodge]

You removed the dampner? As in the harmonic balancer?

 

[Boostediesel]

Suncoast has upgrades for the 68RFE

 

[okish]

The converter has dampener springs in the lock up clutch, kinda like in a clutch disk with a sprung hub.

 

[BgBlDodge]

Gotcha. First I've ever heard of that.

the aisen is not a 68rfe its a totally different breed of trans. they only come in the cab and chassis trucks.

that is what I was wanting to know. The aisan is the 68RE and I think it has a factory triple disk, then the 68rfe is based off of the 545rfe in the half tons.

 

[Breedsrt]

right the 68rfe is just like the 45rfe aka the 545rfe, the only real difference is programing for more gears and bigger parts.
