ATSG - CHRYSLER - DODGE - JEEP - 46RE - 47RE - 48RE - (2011)

The 46RE, 47RE and 48RE family of transmissions by the Chrysler Group, are fitted behind a wide variety of engine sizes, including diesel, and across various vehicle lines. They are also available in 2WD and 4WD configurations. Beginning at the start of production for model year 2005, Dodge trucks equipped with the 5.9L diesel and 48RE transmission were equipped with an electronically controlled Transmission Throttle Valve Actuator (TTVA).This Actuator has replaced the previous Throttle Valve Cable and all associated linkage. A push-in Transmission Range Sensor was implemented in model year 2002 to replace the screw-in Park/Neutral switch. The 46RE, 47RE and 48RE transmissions are all four speed fully automatic units with an electronic governor. They are equipped with a lock-up clutch in the torque converter. First through third gear ranges are provided by the clutches, bands, low-roller clutch, and planetary gear sets in the transmission. Fourth gear is provided by the overdrive unit (rear section) that contains an overdrive clutch, OD/direct clutch, overrun roller clutch, and planetary gear set. These units contain a front (direct) clutch, rear (forward) clutch, and OD/direct clutch which serve as the input driving components.They also contain a kick down (front) band, low/reverse (rear) band, overrun clutch, and the overdrive clutch which serve as the holding components. This ATSG Manual covers transmission assembly, dis-assembly, diagnosis, troubleshooting, and electronic controls and operation.GENERALDESCRIPTION AND VEHICLE APPLICATION CHART 

Chrysler 42RH (A500) – 46RH (A518) – 47RH (A618) – ATSG (Automatic Transmission Service Group) PDF. The A500 (42RH) (A999 Family) and A518 (46RH) (A727 Family) are both rear wheel drive transmissions with the overdrive section incorporated in the extension housing, and first made their appearance in 1988. The A500, beginning at start of production, was designed with a new electronic controlled 3-4 shift and electronic controlled converter clutch. The A518 however only recieved the electronic controlled 3-4 shift and in 1992 recieved the electronic controlled converter clutch. The A500 and A518 transmissions are found in the Dakota, Pick-up Trucks, Ramchargers, Vans and Ram-50 vehicles. In the Ram-50’s, the transmission is reffered to as the R4AC1 for 2WD versions and the V4AC1 for 4WD applications.

A larger version of the A518 (46RH), known as the A618 (47RH), which basically has more clutch plates for increased torque carrying capacity, was introduced in 1994 and is found behind 5.9L Cummins diesel engines and the 8.0L pickup trucks.
