i heard from a tranny guy that those there allison tranny are no good. they have big shafts, but the friction discs are tiny, and they are having problems with them too.

 

yeah I forgot that ford had 49 percent of cummins

 

i just picked up the mag, here is a direct quote

 

All I know is that when they come out I will be the first to test drive and probably own one!!!!!!!!!! WOOT WOOT! THE SAVINGS ARE GROWING FOR THE NEW BEAST!

 

Anyone notice that one article was dated August 4, 1997?

ill be gettin a HUGE raise january and thats when i get my 6.7/aisin!!!

 

I thought that I read that Allision and Aisin were tied some how. I am not sure if I like the idea of a noisy Allision in a Dodge, but I guess we will have to wait and see.

 

Bottom LIne: there will NOT be an Allison tranny in a Dodge. it will be Aisin.

 

Hey, whatever you have to tell yourself!

 

this forum is the only place i have ever heard of an allison in the dodges. everywhere else says aisin.

 

If I here one more piece of mis-information on this my head is going to explode. There is only one 6-speed auto trans that Dodge is going to use in the 07's and that will be the 6-speed Aisin which has absolutely nothing to do with Allison whatsoever. There is no such transmission as a 68re or rfe. Only the Aisin will be put in the 07' Rams, chassis cabs or pick-ups it makes no difference.

 

What does that mean?

 

please call me Luke S. I have proof of the 68rfe it is to be built in Kokomo Indiana's ITP 1 plant where the 545rfe is now built and will go online in oct. I am a proud UAW(local 685) member , the local that will produce the unit, thanks. so you are the one passing mis-info are you there or did your head explode?. again the aisin will be in the 3500 chassis cab only , dodge has said so publicly. PM me for my number. Barry Rayls (uaw local 685 member , heat treat contolman KTP plant(original home to all dc autos).

 

Guess that clears that up.

 

I was just wondering how you are positive of this. Where have you been getting your information that is any better then where we get ours? Just because you are a dealer? There are dealers that have no clue of what the vechiles on the lot have in them, let alone what is coming out in next years model. I am not trying to start a fight or put you down, but do you think that Dodge tells the dealers everything?
