The 45RFE that came out in I believe the 99 Grand Cherokee 4.7.
Was always capable of being a 6 speed, all the planetaries were there. Same basic design, Beefed up, larger case, More clutch packs,heavier converter, larger components in the 66/68 RFE. So not ludicrous. How many have you had apart?
What does working for Cummins have to do with anything?
Sorry your getting but hurt. Because someone disagrees with you.
The same can be said about the 8HP since it is just a larger version with more gears of the 5 HP that was introduced in 1992. However, it is just silly to say either has been around that long just because previous versions were.
I helped take apart two 68RFE's that had their overdrives clutches shot and one of them had the low/reverse sprag grenade as well.
And no, no "butt" hurt here. I am just disagreeing with you from personal and professional experiance about the matter.
