YES, I still consider it a great trans! I never had any of the issues some reported. It shifted firm and precise.

Agree, they are a better performing transmission when paired with the perfect gears and tire size. And a wet bag of c rap when they are not.
Which proves they are a poor design and application from the get go.
I’ve driven enough 5r110?, 6r140 and 5/6 speed Allisons with big tires to know that those transmissions still act and shift like they should even when not paired with ideal equipment.
Heck the old Turbo 400 in the Kraken-mobile (86 GMC) doesn’t care what gears and tires are south of tail shaft housing. It acts and shifts the same regardless. Yet Dodge and now Ram still can’t get it right? 16 years are it’s debut. And they’re still selling them to every sucker who walks through the door and doesn’t know anything about trucks.
It’s proof of the limitations and drawbacks of the 68rfe.
All that said they are NOT unreliable in the least. They’re a durable slush box.
They’re kinda like that big dumb friend. Great guy, do anything for ya, always well intentioned, but maybe just not all there upstairs.
