The miles are starting to rack up on my truck. I just returned from a 2700 mile trip with my fifth wheel following behind. Now have over 160k. The truck was serviced when I left including a pan down fluid and filter change for tranny. The truck has been stellar, and I know the cummins can run a long time. But how long can this tranny hold up? Its been great too but I have a few more thousand mile trips coming up. How many miles have you guys been getting out of your 48re trannys. My truck is bone stock and will remain that way. Im in for the long haul with this truck, not even thinking about trading.
You are doing the right service. Change the fluid and filter every year. I had a 1994 Dodge 2500 w 5.9L gas that made it to 375,000.0 without failure. I gave it to my son after that and it is still in service.
