A couple more downsides: The HD Aisin is physically heavier and requires more frequent service than the 68RFE.
The service is quite simple on the Aisin. Drain pan (there is a drain plug) every 30K and re fill then at 120K replace filter. I just attended May Madness in Pahrump, NV and confirmed this is the case. Per the Chrysler guy as I have said the Aisin does not break! All three Chrysler guys agreed on service intervals. Can't get much easier.
68RFE service is replace both filters and oil every 60K if towing.
Just pulled several long 6 percent grades today and the hottest the trans got was 167 at 85-90 outside. That is with a measly 32,500# combined.
