Description
The 47 and 48RE transmissions' transducer and governor pressure solenoid have been plagued with failures since day one. When these solenoids fail, it leads to loss of overdrive and even torque converter lockup. Sure, you can cycle the key to reset, but it is sure to happen again when its typically least desirable. Fortunately, the professionals at BD have this kit to upgrade your electronics to eliminate these failures!

About BD-Power

BD Diesel is known as one of the originators of diesel performance because theyve been there since the very beginning. Its by no coincidence that theyve been in the industry since 1972 where theyve seen competition come and go over the years. You could consider them a front to back organization in which they design and manufacture products ranging from Super B Turbo Kits and performance injectors for your Cummins to heavy duty transmissions, torque converters, and other transmission components for your Duramax to Positive Air Shutdowns and exhaust brakes for your Powerstroke and everything in between. Quite literally, there are VERY few components that BD does not build for nearly every light duty diesel application.

BD DIESEL PERFORMANCE

Originally founded in 1972 as Valley Fuel Injection that specialized in fuel injection rebuilding and calibrating, BD Diesel gained the most notoriety beginning in 1989 with the release of their first exhaust brake designed for Ram trucks with the acclaimed 12 Valve Cummins engine. BD would later rename Valley Fuel Injection to BD Diesel Truck Service and Performance Center that operates as an extension to BD Diesel Performance. Today, they operate out of a 65,000 square foot facility in Abbotsford, British Columbia and employ over 100 highly skilled individuals. They are constantly pushing the envelope with forward thinking products that not only fill voids in the marketplace, but also take existing products and push them to the next level.

BD DIESEL TRANSMISSION UPGRADES

Transmissions have a singular but ambitious challenge - to transfer all the torque from the diesel engine to the drive wheels. This must be accomplished while maintaining shift quality and minimizing NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness). With stock or OE configurations, this capacity challenge is somewhat less than extraordinary. Comparatively, a high output diesel that develops 2-4 times the original engine torque and keeping stellar driving characteristics at this power level becomes a new feat. Utilizing the latest technology in CAD and FEA simulation, BD can predict and eliminate failures before they happen. The dedicated team of BDs Transmission and Torque Convertor Department are true experts in the development and analysis of the diesel transmission.

BD EXHAUST BRAKES

BD built its reputation on exhaust brakes starting in the early 90's with many casting designs for both engine and remote mount air actuated systems. Rugged cast-iron bodies with an offset stainless steel butterfly build peak efficiency quickly.

BD TURBO UPGRADES

The turbocharger industry is a special industry for BD and remains a key technological asset. When looking at BDs experienced staff, the majority of their key staff members have been developed in or around this technology. BD focuses on the customer's needs, whether it is fast turnaround, state of the art compressor wheels or turbine wheels, they look to deliver on the highest expectations. You can be assured that a BD turbocharger has been hand crafted to the greatest standards. Using precision lathes, milling equipment, honing machines, and inspection CMMs your turbocharger is continuously graded to exceed the OEMs specifications.

BD FUELING UPGRADES

Owing to its heritage as a diesel fuel systems specialist, BD Diesel Truck Service & Performance Center is a factory-certified Bosch, Stanadyne, Delphi and Zexel calibration and repair lab. They are one of a select few injection shops in North America to have Bosch Common Rail parts and an overhaul and testing franchise. BD Diesel rebuilds most all mechanical and electronically-controlled fuel pumps and injectors for diesel engine applications.

BD ELECTRONICS

Throughout the automotive industry, electronic technology has become an integral part of the OEM solution. Whether it is safety, performance, or driving improvements, BD Diesel Performance has developed a strong electronic department to focus strictly on this technology. By focusing on the core needs of the customer, they engineer out the possible product failures and maximize key features to deliver a top to bottom solution. Utilizing state of the art manufacturing equipment, BD maximizes value and minimizes time consuming tasks that inflate costs. Vehicle electronic technology will remain a key technology at BD Diesel Performance.

Fixed some weird issues

"Had a lot of weird issues with my 48re at 192k miles and they seem to be fixed"

Kyle S. (5/5)

All right up to now

"Nicely packed and top notch finish. Not installed yet. Instructions are clear. I hope it solves all the issues like rear to drive shift bumps and first to second uncertain shifts."

Waldomiro C. (5/5)

Great product

"Great looking product and is exactly as described."

Ehskibba (5/5)

Transmission has never shifted better

"installed this with a new filter and it shifts great, thought i was due for a rebuild but now i dont think i need one anytime soon."

Keith (5/5)

Great addition

"Was looking for an upgrade for my 06 3500 - went with this and the ATS pressure solenoid. Was easy to install minus the clip, but eventually got it. Noticeable difference in shifting. Didn't have any issues before I installed, just did this as an upgrade."

Dan V. (5/5)

Finally fixed my funny shifting

"Finally fixed my funny shifting problem. ."

Glen Y. (5/5)

Working well solved my issue

"Working well solved my issue I was having with the everyday parts store brand!"

Morgan B. (5/5)

Fixed P1757 on 2005 Ram

"Installed in 2005 Ram 3500 to solve code 1757 with trans that was didn't want to shift out of first gear. Truck shifts better than ever. Had to buy an inch-pound torque wrench to complete install. Although I couldn't find a installation video for this BD kit, I watched several other YouTube videos to familiarize myself with R&R of governor pressure solenoid. Only thing that wasn't perfect was the transducer's connection to the factory plug, but stayed connected when given a tug."

Will (4/5)

Great product!

"Install was fairly easy. Instructions were well put together. Selection of this kit was a Great choice!!! No more issues with hesitation to shift or shuttle shifting. Strongly recommended."

Matt N. (5/5)

Very sastified

"06 ram 2500, before purchase truck would have to be put in neutral and wait for pressure, now has better immediate pressure, simple install"

Q&A

Will this fit the 48RE in my 2005 Dodge 3500 5.9. 2 wheel drive.
Yes this will work with that combo. Thank you.
Will this work with a 2004.5 ats towing valve body?
Yes it would fine with that application as long as it didn't already have their GM Gov. Pressure solenoid. -Sands
will these electronics fit into the ATS ""towing"" VB? or are more parts needed?
If you were looking to replace all the electronics. You would also need new shift solenoids. DppSands
Can I use these by just replacing the stock or do I need the Bd body
Yes you could upgrade your stock valve body with those. DppSands
