68RFE Valve Body 2007, remanufactured and ready to install. Fits the 68RFE. Ships fast from the USA.
If your 2007 Ram 2500, 3500, 4500 or 5500 with the 6.7L Cummins is shifting harsh, slipping between gears, delaying engagement into Drive or Reverse, or throwing a pressure or solenoid code, the 68RFE valve body is the first-year unit behind most of those complaints. This is a remanufactured valve body built bench-ready, so you install a known-good unit instead of chasing worn bores and plugged plugs in the original one piece at a time.
The 68RFE was new for the 2007 model year, the first six-speed paired with the 6.7L Cummins after the 5-speed 48RE. The valve body is the hydraulic brain of that transmission: it routes line pressure through precision bores and spool valves to apply each clutch and band, and it carries the shift, pressure-control and torque converter clutch (TCC) solenoids the TCM uses to time every shift and converter lockup. On this early casting the solenoid switch valve bore and the pressure regulator valve bore do most of the wearing.
Pull codes first. A P0871 on this family is tied to worn bores and switch valve plugs in roughly nine out of ten cases, not the pressure switch itself, and erratic or high line pressure traces back to the same pressure regulator bore wearing oversize. Our 68RFE valve body problems and testing guide walks through the pressure checks and code pulls before you spend money on a part, and the delayed engagement guide covers the specific pressure checks for a slow engagement complaint like this one.
This listing is tagged for the 2007 model year 68RFE, the first year of production in the Ram 2500/3500/4500/5500 with the 6.7L Cummins. The early casting ran a 7-ball configuration before Chrysler revised the valve train on later production, so match the ball count and solenoid connector on your original unit against this one, or send us your year and VIN before ordering if you are not sure which revision your truck carries. Browse the rest of our 68RFE parts if your truck falls outside the 2007 range.
Change the fluid and filter at the same time the valve body goes in, since debris from the failing original unit will otherwise circulate straight into the new one. Torque the valve body and separator plate bolts to spec in sequence rather than guessing, because uneven clamping on this casting is a common cause of a comeback shift complaint. Run the transmission adaptive relearn after installation so the TCM stops carrying over shift adaptations tuned for the worn unit. If the solenoid switch valve plugs or conductor plate on your original unit were leaking, pair this job with a 68RFE solenoid kit rather than bolting fresh hydraulics to worn electronics, and if you have not touched the overhaul kit yet, a 68RFE overhaul kit is worth doing alongside the valve body if the unit has real mileage on it.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
It is the hydraulic control unit bolted to the bottom of the 68RFE transmission. It routes line pressure through spool valves to apply each clutch and band, and carries the shift, pressure-control and torque converter clutch solenoids the TCM uses to time every shift.
The 68RFE debuted for the 2007 model year in Ram 2500, 3500, 4500 and 5500 trucks built with the 6.7L Cummins diesel, replacing the 5-speed 48RE.
Harsh or flared shifts, slipping between gears, torque converter clutch shudder, delayed engagement into Drive or Reverse, and a stored pressure or solenoid code that can put the transmission into limp mode.
In most cases yes. Worn bores and switch valve plugs inside the valve body account for roughly nine out of ten P0871 codes on this family, not the pressure switch itself, so replacing the valve body resolves the underlying wear rather than just clearing the code.
The 68RFE runs ATF+4. Change the fluid and filter when you install the valve body, and run the transmission adaptive relearn afterward so the TCM recalibrates shift timing for the new unit.
If your original unit had leaking solenoid switch valve plugs or a warped conductor plate, yes. Pairing a solenoid kit with the valve body avoids bolting new hydraulics to electronics that are already marginal.
