    48RE Rebuild Recommendation

    Thanks, everyone for the feedback, very much appreciated. I have been driving for 53 years and have heard countless horror stories from family and friends of HACK JOB transmission rebuilds. I just want my 48RE done right. I will take a gander at the Gorends option.

    48RE Rebuild Recommendation

    Greetings- I need my 2007 48RE rebuilt by a reputable Transmission specialist. I have been eyeballing Precision Transmission in Amarillo Texas, 1400 miles from my home.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Fuel leak-Help!

    I change my VP44 injector pump but I cannot get the high pressure fuel lines at the cylinder head from leaking on cylinder number 1 & 3. I toque the fuel lines at the head per the manual to 28 FT/LBS or 330 IN/LBS. When truck is cold, I let the truck idle and I have no leaks until the truck has...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) VP44 Electronics Question

    Does anyone know if the electronics in a VP44 send any signal to the lift pump to start up? This is a followup to an earlier posting on a V44 rebuild that was installed and now the FASS OEM lift pump does not work. The lift pump was working before the V44 install. Strange that the lift pump...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) VP44 Pump HELP!!!!

    I just helped my friend install a very good quality VP44 rebuild in his 2002 2500 ram. We took our time and installed this pump by the numbers, all went well. When we attempted to start the process of bleeding the fuel lines the OEM FASS pump does not work, we just installed this new pump about...
