WISH I DID THIS! RevMax Transmission Upgrades

[@traviskorda3262]

Hey Steve I'm sure there may be a better forum to ask this question of you but...I live in Arizona and I'm probably a year out or so from doing my transmission (my 17 Ram is stock power with 25k on it). Anyways I'm trying to find a really good reliable shop for diesel work, especially when I go to do my trans. Figure you probably have some AZ subscribers that may have some suggestions? It's funny that you live clear across the country and I'm asking for local advice but, that's one of the benefits of what you do! Thanks bro love the content

[@BEASTProjects]

I don’t know anyone in AZ, but I’ll pin this to see if any other subscribers do..

[@traviskorda3262]

Sweet thanks...I'm getting all the other phases of my build done first (suspension, exterior, etc). Performance phase will probably start with a valve body and cooler bypass from RevMax and deep trans pan/Amsoil for trans, then an emissions intact tune... then evolve from there.

Travis Korda - Hey Travis! Check these guys out www.brahssolutions.com They are here in Albuquerque so it would be a little drive from AZ for you but all their guys are Master Cummins techs!

[@elpozzinator]

@@traviskorda3262 if you're planning on using aftermarket performance transmission components (regardless of make), verify with the company that they're ok with amsoil trans fluid. the stuff i saw a while back wasn't listed specifically as ATF-4 but as "ATF-4 compatible" or "meets ATF-4 standards", and that may not be acceptable for any warranty coverage on the parts.

[@traviskorda3262]

@@elpozzinator thanks I plan on using RevMax as long as I retain the 68RFE (when it comes time that I need to do a full rebuild I'll either go full Revmax or Allison swap)...so I'll make sure and check with them. I cant imagine they would have an issue with Amsoil but, dont know for a fact

[@22Cummins-H.O.]

damn, look at those fuel prices

[@chasethompson9826]

Working at Revmax and building converters I can say the money wasn't wasted. Another happy customer without a doubt

[@BEASTProjects]

Definitely

[@repairvehicle]

Awesome valuable information.

[@repairvehicle]

Are you using Amsoil ATF fluid in your Cummins?

[@BEASTProjects]

Of course! https//:beastsynthetics.com

Who tunes your guys transmission I need to get my 68rfe tune I'm using all revmax components except going with Suncoast for their junior drum assembly

My overdrive hub assembly is what broke on my revmax trans.

[@aaronolsen8787]

That sucks. Was it the 550 drum?

[@patrickgregory7920]

@@aaronolsen8787 68rfe 700 series in which they used the stock part as they said even a billet part was no better. Yet it seems they came out with one there after.

[@jaredmayer3960]

The sprag is by far the most durable component you showed. If you get the sprag elements to roll over you broke the race. Overrunning ramp roller clutches are inherently weak. They brinell the inner race under mega load. Good parts. I like rev max.

[@patrickgregory7920]

My 68rfe 700 series lasted 50k miles. Not being beat on either. I was not impressed at all.

[@jeremybrewer7343]

Within two years my 700 series has been to Revmax twice already within 50k miles, and not beating it either just normally driving not towing, less than 500hp. :( Just got it back from Revmax and it's having trouble going into overdrive already.

[@patrickgregory7920]

@@jeremybrewer7343 gotta love spending all this money and not trusting it anymore. I was pumped when I spent all that hard earned money thinking it would last me forever as I take care of it- big disappointment is what it is. If mine goes again- which im sure it will, the truck is gone..... I just dont trust it anymore and its a sickining feeling.

[@theworksofhoustonllc5654]

[@aaronolsen8787]

Ya, that's awful. 50k ish on my NAPC 700 68rfe and I toasted it. Have around 500rwhp and don't beat on it. Who's tuning are/were you using?

[@patrickgregory7920]

@@aaronolsen8787 I had revmax approved tuning thru Robert ivey at the time. I never trusted it after that and now I drive an f350 tuned thru proven diesel

[@patrickgregory7920]

I do love the cooler bypass. It has treated me well.

[@tonymarago8841]

That was an awesome video for people having issues...

[@mattmcquigg5538]

Love how informative, and how he explains everything. I just want to know his thoughts on the sonax OD housing vs revmax?

[@BEASTProjects]

We’ll keep everyone updated on it.. Interesting to see how it performs & holds up.

[@gunrightsfan]

Awesome learned something new again! Thanks keep them coming

[@tonyturner779]

Love the videos just keep em coming

[@EastCoastFrenchPups]

Another good Video learn a few things about the Rebel thanks

[@jefforr439]

I have a Sonnex like you no issues. Have you had issues with yours?

[@BEASTProjects]

All is good so far...

[@garybailey618]

Great video, wish this transmission shop was closer to Bama😀

[@UncleJack5224]

There some good trans shop here in sweet home. It’s the jack that you’re willing to pay.

[@rioncardwell3867]

Are you launching in 4wd?

[@BEASTProjects]

Not my truck

[@sprucegoose1016]

Cool product 😎👌

[@crazyhass84]

Now we know why they charge 3500 to upgrade to the aisin trans. Its cheap vs all this crap. I have spent 18k on suncoast 68 re transmissions parts for my 2008. Then i still had to spend 12k on a 48re swap to hold 900hp. Never again! Got my 2018 3500 with aisin.

[@tonymarago8841]

I think I need the overdrive drum kit for my trans, and I'm also going to get the upgrade performance clutches from revmax too

[@mikestrucks]

I do like revmax 💪💪 They make some really nice parts 😬👍
