Description

ATS Diesel has engineered a fully integrated Allison transmission swap for Cummins 5.9L powered vehicles. Powered by our proprietary Digital/Analog Standalone TRANSLator® technology with the T87a TCM and our exclusive, patented Allison to Cummins Bell-housing, the ATS Swap Cummins to Allison Conversion Kit offers complete factory functionality from your late model 5.9L Dodge. Our revolutionary new TRANSLator® Digital/Analog Standalone module allows the Allison T87a TCM to function with the Dodge Truck as it came from the factory with all plug-and-play installation. Our exclusive, patented Allison to Cummins Bell-housing allows a perfect factory match between the Allison Transmission and the Cummins Engine with no additional fabrication required. The all-new ATS Diesel Allison Conversion Kit includes all necessary hardware and software to install an Allison LCT1000 behind your Cummins 5.9L Engine. ATS Diesel Performance is now offering a complete kit so the Allison 6-speed automatic transmission can be installed behind the Cummins 5.9L engine.

For those of you that are not satisfied with the Dodge automatic transmission behind your Cummins engine, the Allison 6-speed swap is the ultimate alternative. If you’re looking for increased reliability and a transmission that will hold under the power of the Cummins you will find that the Allison LCT1000 built by ATS is superior to the factory transmissions offered by Dodge. Dodge offered the 47-RH, 48-RE, 48-RE and the standard transmission option. If you are converting from a standard transmission you will need to source an automatic steering column from a salvage yard. While ATS offers rebuilt versions of these transmissions using heavy duty upgraded parts, the upgraded heavy-duty transmissions still do not offer all of the benefits of a fully built Allison 6-speed automatic.

ATS Allison 6 Speed Retrofit application Guide. When you are supplying you own transmission this will tell you what ATS install kit you will need to purchase.

The information in this guide will explain the different combinations of Allison 5-speed and 6-speed cores that can be used when upgrading to the ATS Allison conversion kit. We have designed the ATS conversion kit to be able to use any GM Allison 5-speed or 6-speed unit manufactured from 2001 to 2019 that came out of a 2500 or 3500 GM Truck. There are 4 basic configurations of the Allison LCT-1000 transmission. Each one of these transmissions use a different pump, Pressure regulator system and Valve Body configuration. These three parts can not be interchanged without causing severe problems. The different ATS conversion kit options are designed around the transmission core you are starting with. Each kit is designed to be sure the kit you order is shipped with the exact parts you need when you rebuild and up-grade your transmission to be used in the ATS conversion package.

2001 to 2005, 5-Speed Allison LCT-1000. When starting with this core type transmission you must install the ATS modified valve body with internal harness, Manual linkage shaft and Internal mode switch.

2006 to 2010, 6-Speed Allison LCT-1000, When starting with this core type transmission you can use all of the original components. The factory 06-10 VB is hydraulicly limited because of the design of the trim valves, this design limits the line pressure that is allowed to apply the clutch packs which reduces the transmissions ability to hold power. If your Cummins power level is anything above stock it is highly recommended to upgrade to our Valve Body. The ATS valve body is new and designed to provide full line pressure to the clutch packs of the transmission and ensures the transmission will hold increased power levels.

2011 to 2016, 6-Speed Allison LCT-1000, When starting with this core type transmission you can use all of the original components except for the output shaft. The factory output shaft is the wrong spline count to adapt to the Dodge/Ram transfer case. You will need to replace the output shaft with a stock 2001 to 2010 shaft or ATS billet output shaft when doing your rebuild.

2017 to 2019, 6-Speed Allison LCT-1000, When starting with this core type transmission you must change out the pump/stator support assembly and input shaft to the 2011 to 2016 version. The factory output shaft is the wrong spline count to adapt to the Dodge/Ram transfer case. You will need to replace the output shaft with a stock 2001 to 2010 shaft or ATS billet output shaft when doing your rebuild.

Other after market conversions:

CA Conversion or PCS/Destroked Allison transmission, When converting one of these 5-speed or 6-speed Allison transmissions over to use the ATS control system these parts will need to be used. ATS modified valve body with internal harness, Manual linkage shaft and Internal mode switch and ATS electronics package. These conversions are all built a little different so there may be variances in the exact parts you need. It’s also recommended to add the ATS iDash monitor to this package to display the gear selection, trans temp etc.
