68RFE Overhaul Kit 2019-2022, new and ready to install. Fits the 68RFE. Ships fast from the USA.
This overhaul kit is listed for the 68RFE used from 2019 through 2022, the fourth-generation Ram Heavy Duty years with the 6.7L Cummins and the blue pass-through case connector. By now many of these trucks have spent several seasons pulling fifth wheels and goosenecks, and the first rebuilds are arriving at shops with the same story: a flare between gears when loaded, a sluggish shift into Reverse or Drive before the truck warms up, and seepage at the pan or front of the case. If your transmission is coming out, this sealed kit renews the seals and gaskets the whole unit depends on. It ships in the manufacturer's bag, so check each piece against the old part during assembly.
Like every 68RFE, the late unit makes its gears with clutch packs applied by oil pressure. Teflon and iron sealing rings carry that oil across rotating shafts and drums, lip seals on the pistons hold it while the pack clamps, and gaskets keep adjacent passages in the case, pump and valve body apart. What changed in 2019 is the hydraulic layout around the solenoids. Transmission Digest explains that Chrysler added a separate TCC solenoid in its own small housing on the lower channel plate, so the low/reverse solenoid now applies only the L/R clutch in Park, Neutral and first gear instead of also running converter lockup. Chrysler also added a normally applied Reverse clutch solenoid where the old overdrive solenoid used to sit. To feed it, the silicone-beaded solenoid block gasket was redesigned with the Reverse feed walled off from the D21 line pressure passage that supplies the 2nd and 4th clutch solenoids.
That gasket is the one piece in a 2019-up rebuild you cannot afford to mix up. Fit an earlier white or gray connector gasket to this unit and Transmission Digest warns you can get a bind-up moving forward or a 2-3 shift that falls into neutral.
Read codes first, then check the fluid hot and look at what is in the pan. Separate a seal problem from a pump problem by comparing actual against commanded line pressure on a scan tool; our 68RFE pump failure guide walks through it. A late shift, harsh shift or wrong-gear command with clean fluid is more likely electrical, so work through the 68RFE shift solenoid guide before opening the case. For a truck that only misbehaves when hot and loaded, the Ram 3500 Cummins shift problems guide covers the towing-specific causes.
For the 68RFE in 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022 Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks with the 6.7L Cummins. The quickest check is the case connector: blue means the late design this kit is listed for, white or gray means a 2007-2018 unit that needs an earlier kit such as the 68RFE overhaul kit for 2007-2024. If the truck has been swapped or you are not sure, send us the year and VIN and we will confirm the match. Everything else for this transmission is on the 68RFE collection page.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
No. A 2018 uses the gray connector design with a different solenoid block gasket. Choose a 2007-2018 range kit or send us your VIN.
Look at the pass-through electrical connector on the side of the case. A blue connector marks the 2019-up 68RFE with the separate TCC solenoid and the Reverse solenoid.
No, it is the gasket and seal set. Buy frictions and steels separately or step up to a master rebuild kit if the packs are worn.
Transmission Digest reports either a bind-up moving forward or a neutral 2-3 shift, because the Reverse feed and the D21 line pressure feed are routed differently on the two gaskets.
ATF+4 only, with the level set at 160 degrees F or higher, followed by a quick learn so the controller relearns clutch fill.
