Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
It's a given that stock 48 rfe's are pretty strong and built 48 rfe's strength is far far stronger than stock BUT none of that addresses wide gaps in gearing.
What would it take in numbers of potential customers to make this project viable?
No doubt an expensive R&D outlay but Cummins aftermarket customers have a proven history of spending $$$$ on good products.
Since this could never be a couple guys working out of their garage project, what could we "the 5. 9 aftermarket" do to provide incentive to a single performance transmission shop or maybe even a "co-operative effort" via several performance transmission shops along with some of the performance software shops to all work together and R & D this.
Given many economic factors of fewer new rigs selling and hugh desire for 5. 9 ers to keep their rigs on the road, and all the spin off $$$$ that would go along with 5. 9's staying on the road long long past their Powerstroke and Duramax counterparts matched up year for year, it would seem there would be a long long run of return on investment.
So please Santa put a card in this years stocking stuffer teasing me that some old reindeer might one day be able to get 68 rfe retrofits.
