    Odd transmission problems 2014 ram 1500 8hp70

    I have a 2014 ram 1500 5.7 with 8hp70. When the truck is idling and in park, the digital speedometer says 1mph. Then when I put it into drive and go above 5mph it puts itself into park and stops me. I tried pulling the lever to keep it out of park and it does a similar thing where it revs up and...

    '13 65rfe to 8hp70 4x4

    I've got a 2013 1500 4x4 that I'm trying to swap an 8hp70 into but I'm struggling with the wiring aspect of the swap. Tons of forums I've seen use SGA harnesses, I could use one too but I want to keep the swap as close to factory as possible since I know the 2013s onward had an option for the...

    2WD Reg Cab/Short Bed 8HP70 Driveshaft Prices

    Has anyone noticed the insane prices for these drive shafts? Stock replacement is near a grand, used are almost impossible to find, and when you do find one it's over $500 for one with huge mileage. I see aftermarket replacements that are supposed to fix a high speed imbalance, bu5t they are...

    2012 Ram 1500 ECU Swap

    I am planning to do an 8 speed swap in my 2012 Ram 1500. I purchased a used 8HP70 out of a 2014 Ram 1500 and was in the process of deciding what conversion kit to use (SGA or Turbolamik), then thought it could be simpler to swap an ECU and harness from 2014 Ram that was already set up with the 8...

    Dealer says I need a new transmission, what happened?

    Well, this is more of a a s**T sucks post but anyway. Truck(2018 1500 5.7 8HP70 44) I’ve felt it surge a couple times to 3-4 or 4-5 when it was cold leaving my housing area in the morning and once I leave it and get on the main road it acts fine the rest of the day. The other day my wife drove...

    14 ram 8hp70 used transmission

    Hey, I'm changing the transmission(8hp70) in my 14 ram due to a slight torque converter slip in all gears. My question is do I have to put that tcm in the new used Transmission or can I just have a dealer program the other Trans to the vehicle without swapping anything.

    While placing an order for spark plugs last week from rockauto.com, I was browsing their catalog and noticed they sell something called a “shift improvement kit” for the eight-speed transmission which has so many problems with shuddering and rough shifting. The kit appears to be a bunch of...

    I am considering changing the transmission oil pan on my 2016 Longhorn 5.7 Hemi with the ZF 8HP70 tranmission to a PPE pan. Some things I am concerned about are: 1) There have been some conflicting posts about whether or not the PPE pan can be installed without modifying the Y pipe for the...

    ZF8HP70 and Lifetime Maxcare

    I bought an '18 1500 with 5.7 and 8-speed several months ago. Separately, from a dealer online, I purchased Lifetime Maxcare. Though my truck only has roughly 14K miles currently, I'm trying to decide what to do about the transmission. FCA does not recommend changing the fluids. According to...
