1500HP 47RE Transmission Build!

[@JavierMartinez-fj7tm]

Thank you so much for that detail ❤

[@bcbloc02]

On my race auto trans trucks I have installed tractor style hydraulic quick couplers in the oil cooler lines. It makes removing and installing the trans a much less messy affair and faster.

Awesome work Josh, the hard work shows! Keep killing it man

[@PnwTinkerer]

Keep killing it Josh! Love the content. Trans work looks quality

[@jimmungai1938]

Good job on the transmission you did real good are used to rebuild a number of torque flights over the years but it’s been a long time ago and I can tell you this right now things have gotten a lot better since then anyway six in a row Jim good job guy good job

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

Thanks man! Appreciate you watching and always leaving comments!

[@TheFiremanJoe]

Nice work Josh!

[@73cjproject]

Nice all around content. Will be nice to see more and more customer rigs out there putting down the hp. As for the shifter adjustment an old drag racing buddy said it best, "We want to adjust it for the forward gears because we don't race in reverse!"

[@rotarypumpdiesel131]

As always , get content. Always my go to for information 👍

[@slowaf12v]

Great Video Josh!!! Thanks for te 47 insite...

[@baconcreek609]

47 builds always intrigue me. So many little tricks...

[@mikestrucks]

One of my favorite channel ! Keep up the good work man 💪🏻👍🏻

[@kalebstout7673]

Would really like to get your expertise on parts breakdown for rebuilding my 47RE in my 97 dodge ram 2500 4x4. I had it professionally rebuilt about two years ago and was built for up to 750hp yet third gear is acting up with the truck only about 450hp. Plan on building the truck to atleast 650hp up to 850hp but want the transmission to be OVERBUILT (support 1,000hp) questioning buying a built trans but really want to just rebuild mine if possible. I’m running 20 degrees of timing, 5x16 injectors, 5” exhaust, 63/71/14 turbo that will be paired with a S480, FASS 165 or Air dog, Twin ram intake and other supporting mods. I rarely tow with this truck but don’t want to sacrifice being able to tow. It’s mostly a street truck and has been my daily but plan on beefing it up making it faster and definitely not daily driving it.

[@kalebstout7673]

Oh and wanting to do a manual valve body with ratchet shifter

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

Without knowing what all is in it, it is hard to know how to upgrade. But building on yours would definitely be cheaper

[@williamsmith286]

Bro, Im renameing the chanel to chillin with Josh,.....Love the tunes!

[@truckgang7723]

hey love your vids

[@Balakay9435]

Hell Yeah Brother 🇺🇸🦅

[@grant_6.7_5th_gen]

Great video Josh! It's awesome that your staying busy with the new shop and merch store.

[@lilredsled]

You can cut a hole in the table and have a 25g drum under to catch all the fluid

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

I would love to but now under the table is also storage!

[@lydiapulver669]

Love the channel keep up the good work

[@scmroman]

You make it look easy sometimes.

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

Lots and lots and lots of pract

[@dbfabworks5320]

Love it!!!! Keep it up!!

[@JavierMartinez-fj7tm]

What fluid you use for that build 1500 hp trans

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

the cheapest dex merc i can buy

[@justinschooler6243]

Keep grinding 👍

[@colinlawrence2186]

Awesome job Josh very interesting to see what problems arise with trans at that power level What is interesting is the trans case is Suncoast orange probably been through their shop at one time 🤔 As always take care stay safe and God bless you always 🙋‍♂️🇬🇧

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

RKL used Orange back in the day

[@coalstang]

what line pressure was he at? im curious what pressure it took to kill the plates. 200? 200+?

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

I run 225 on my 07, 250 on my pro street truck. Line pressure didn’t do this, machined reaction plates do. He’s at 180-190 for reference

[@dodgeman4046]

My 68rfe blows the dipsick out always only about an inch and never any fluid any ideas?

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

Does it blow out or rattle

[@dodgeman4046]

@@horsetorquesdiesel it definitely blows out I put it back drive around the block and it's out again it fits pretty tight like it should I was thinking maybe plugged vent

[@drewsharpe7484]

Are u gonna run some of the new billet reaction plates from Firepunk? U know I have all the 48 planet and pump setups!

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

No, haven’t hurt a full thickness one, we are stocked up on stuff, took a trip to Florida!

[@markrich3271]

Josh i have a early belleville spring i putting in my forward drum . ive read they need a spacer or... What do you use to take up the slack a .875 billet forward piston or do you use the billet belleville that's thicker? Im surprised he doesnt have a pinned or bolt in sprag.

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

The sprag is bolted in, don’t even mess with anything just get the billet spring

[@markrich3271]

@@horsetorquesdiesel Thank you!

[@bandabanderos]

If you don’t run stepped reaction plates, do you end up with a lower clutch count or do you compensate somehow?

[@esimler]

Would also like to know this

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

Snap rings, different thickness steels, different thickness clutches, machined pistons

[@baconcreek609]

That rear vent is interesting..... At what pressure level is that helpful?

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

It’s more to prevent oil downs at the track

[@brandonmcintosh2735]

When doing a "48 swap" can a 47re be used just the same? 2012 6.7 68rfe currently

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

Yes it can, just weaker planetary gears

[@TannerK._.]

Is there a way I can have you build me a trans for 800hp

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

Yes sir, message us! WOT Motorsports!

[@Project_Cummins]

I want to find someone to make me an exhaust like his to exit out the passenger fender

[@travisjellison2742]

I made my own out the fender little different than that

[@codyjewell1805]

That’s my old truck !

[@codyjewell1805]

Brian built that upper radiator hose

[@horsetorquesdiesel]

Nice, it’s a good build!
