About Our Remanufactured A618 Transmission
The A618 actually refers to an entire family of 4-speed automatic transmissions that include the 47RE, 47RH, and 48RE. However, A618 is also used in some instances to refer just to 47RE transmissions. Here on the Reman-Transmission website, A618 refers to both 47RE and 47RH transmissions. From the 1990s, the Chrysler product family line of transmissions TorqueFlite™ A518/A618 was primarily used in rear-wheel drive Dodge and Jeep pickup trucks and vans. The A618 is a modified design created to produce a heavier-duty version of the A518.

The A618 is also called the 46RE. It has been modified with electronic control of governor pressures from the earlier 46RH hydraulic version. The A618 was eventually renamed the 47RE.
What is the difference between A518 and A618 transmission?

A618 History & Information
Chrysler began manufacturing the Dodge A618 transmission in the mid-1990s as part of the automaker’s TorqueFlite group. It was preceded by the A518 (a lighter-duty design), the 46RH (hydraulic), and the 46RE (electronic) versions, and later followed by the 68RFE (electronic).
The A618 transmission can be built for 2-wheel drive and 4-wheel drive vehicles. The heavy-duty A618 can be built to service V10 diesel utility trucks.
Reputed for its reliable performance under conditions of normal routine use, the A618 transmission continued in use and was ultimately renamed the 47RE. The modified A618, now 47RE, featured electronically controlled governor pressure. The 46RE (upgraded from the 46RH), also in the TorqueFlite array, offered a modified A518 for heavy-duty use. The 46RE was installed in trucks and vans beginning in the 1990s.
Since that period, the A618/47RE has remained in use. A newer, even heavier-duty version, the 48RE features steel planetary carriers instead of aluminum and a larger number of clutch plates in transmissions serving in V-10 applications. It has six pinion gears. It also features heavy-duty overdrive and exceptionally strong internal working parts and has a torque rating equal to 610 Nm. The A618 automatic transmission appears in the 1994 - 2003 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 pickup trucks. If the truck was a 4x4, this transmission was typically mated to the NP241DLD transfer case.
Alternatively, the lighter-duty overdrive planetary of the A518 is frequently used to replace the 4-pinion planetary of applicable light-duty truck transmissions. Versions of the A618 have been manufactured containing rear planet sets with 4, 5, and 6 pinions.
To determine the drive ratio of an A618, you can check the protruding plug at the back left of the main housing to see if the unit is a lockup. If there are 3 pins on the plug, the unit is a lockup, delivering a direct 1:1 drive ratio. If there are only 2 pins, that means the transmission is not a lockup design. Both A518 and A618 transmissions have been built both ways.
