Hi there, I have a question for a 545rfe expert…. I have a 2003 ram hemi with 35s. I like to cruise around 65 mpg on the highway, but sometimes it starts to lug down uncomfortably to like 1500-1600 rpm. I have heard these transmissions don’t like to kick down out of overdrive, that it would go into 2nd prime and burn up the o/d clutches. So I am curious what gear does it go into when I hit o/d off button? Does it kick down to 3rd? Reason I ask is because it is my understanding both 4th and 5th are overdrive ratios. Thanks

I just build a 399c.i. stroker with a custom torque cam, eagle top end, long tube headers, 11:1 compression. It's going in a 2007 ram 1500 4x4 on 35" mud tires. I really want to get this done right the first time. My tranny has not failed, but I figured I had better build the stock tranny before installing the motor. I expect the motor will make around 500-550hp. Not sure on torque numbers. Any guidance you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

From my experience there is no way to make a RFE trans hold power for long term use. But if your not running a power adder and drag racing it constantly it will hold up for a decent time. However the absolute best option is a good used factory trans or a new oem unit the rebuilds don't seem to work well from what I've heard and seen.

@tonym36754 жыл бұрын
Sometimes! Rebuilders forget or simply don't know ( yes there are some that don't. I've run into a few of them over the years) that You HAVE to soak all clutch disks in transmission fluid for a few hours at the very least before they get installed. So while I can't tell if that was what caused this particular problem, this is one reason I've seen some burn out pretty fast after someone rebuilt. Another reason can be due to the spacing in the trams is wrong. Another reason is ( if you saw him looking at the over drive stage Part.) the rings on the shaft may have gotten nicked or torn. While most of the time, if this has happened, it will be noticed very quickly as the transmission won't shift correctly . But also, if it's just a slight nick, it may take it a few miles before it shows not shifting properly. Then of course there could be a problem with fluid flow. Pump having something wrong with it and a number of other reasons too long to get into here. But yeah, I too wish he'd have told us what he thought the reason it burned up was.

Is the transmission that’s currently in your truck with 150,000 miles on it all stock? It’s impressive that it’s lasted that long. Mine has 197,000 On it but I don’t race... lol

Yes the one still in my truck has 148k on it right now and still going strong 💪

Hey I have the same transmission in my 09 ram 1500 4.7. I'm going to do a stroker build, but I'm trying to determine what the stock trans can handle (hp and torque). My ideal torque is about 500 hp and torque on my build. What upgrades do you recommend for my 545RFE five-speed? Or would you even suggest a trans swap to the 65rfe or Zf 8 speed to be able to handle to additional power?
@FrostbiteRam4 жыл бұрын
I'm putting a little bit more than that through mine and its still holding. If you stay around 500 Mark it will hold up pretty well if tuned and driven right.

It probably failed after rebuild because he pushed it hard before the trans control computer learning procedure was completed, smoking the second gear, which is a very doggish gear to begin with.
