Custom Transmission Accessories & Additives
Added "enhancements" for your 42/44/46 RH/RE Series Transmissions
APS Precision drop in 6-Pinion Planetary Gear Set for the 46/47/48 RH/RE
APS has released a 5-pinion Heavy Duty Upgrade a while back and now have just released a drop in 6-Pinion Ultra Duty (available in limited quantities at this time). Have a Super High Performance Racing Application or Massive Towing job to do? Here is the part you would want, perhaps a bit expensive and perhaps a complete overkill but again that's what we build for, the extreme among us.
Includes a new annulus gear, 6-Pinion Steel Carrier Planetary gear set, Sun Gear, Thrust Plate & Torrington Bearing
APS - Front Extra Heavy Duty 5-Pinion Steel Planetary for the 46-47 RE/RH series of transmissions
5-Pinion vs. 3-Pinion Planetary
5-Pinion Planetary gears offer over 65% increase in torque capacity over a standard 3-Pinion and a sizable advantage over the 4-Pinion planetary. APS has the extra strong pinion washers that will take the abuse of nitrous and supercharging without crushing or breaking. These 5-Pinion Planetarys, when ordered as part of the APS RaceMaster Transmission, are capable of handling in excess of 850HP.
APS - Overdrive 15 Degree Extra Heavy Duty 5-Pinion Steel Planetary for the 42-47 RE/RH series of transmissions
5-Pinion Overdrive Planetary
Completely replace the weaker 22 Degree Standard Duty parts with this Revised 15 Degree Extra Heavy Duty 5-pinion Planetary Overdrive Planetary Gear Set. Gear set offers significant strength advantage over a 3-Pinion or 4-Pinion planetary. Comes as a complete kit with the Planetary Gears, Ring Gear, Sun Gear, and Torrington Washers. This kit will really beef up what has proven to be the weakest parts of the Mopar RWD transmissions the overdrive section. Can be ordered separately or as an integral part of the APS StreetFighter or RaceFighter Series Transmissions. Make no excuses and don't be fooled by others claiming that the 3-Pinion Planetarys are better - order the best
APS - High Strength Sintered Metal Cast Band is the ultimate in strength for high output applications (APS Exclusive Part)
Sintered Metal Cast Band
APS has addressed a weak spot in the late model TorqueFlite transmission where failing intermediate bands have caused the loss of 2nd gear. This issue has become quite prevalent on heavy duty and racing applications where the lugs have been ripped clean off the standard flex band causing a serious failure. Band is finished with a Heavy Duty Red Lining that is both Long Lasting, Heat Resistant and Very "Grippy". Make this band part of your overhaul or as an option on your APS StreetFighter or APS RaceFighter Transmission.
High Capacity Direct Drums - 46RH/RE
High Capacity Direct Drum
These High Capacity Direct Drums hold an additional clutch over the weaker 3-Clutch
direct drum found almost exclusively in today’s 46RE even in the High Performance
Dakota R/T’s. This Direct Clutch comes complete with a Special 15 Spring Piston
that can hold up to 15 High Performance Piston Return Springs
Special Release Springs for High Capacity Drum (APS Exclusive Part)

Not anymore with this special servo kit that comes complete with Teflon Ring, Seal, Servo Piston, Band Apply Stem & Cup, also and Cushion Blocker. Comes fully assembled and Ready to install in a disassembled transmission or can be installed in vehicle provided the OD unit is removed. Available for the 42/44/46 RH/RE Transmissions.
All new Aluminum Accumulator with Block-Off Rod (APS Exclusive Part)
(Picture coming Soon)
APS is introducing an all new Aluminum Accumulator with Blocker Rod. It
now has thicker ring lands and machined surfaces. It also uses thicker materials
for added strength which makes it one of the best products available. For improved 1-2 & 2-3 Shifts - (Above and beyond standard shift
kits - Works well on stock transmission as well for firmer shifts)

Improved TV Valve Assembly (APS Exclusive Part)
Fixes Superior, Level-10, and TransGo Shift Point issues (Selectable 5000, 5200, 5400rpm shift points)
APS Specific Rate Intermediate Servo Spring (APS Exclusive Part)
The APS Specific Rate Intermediate Servo Spring is a part of the
APS System of transmission shift correction parts that will give flawless quick
shifts. This Special Rate Intermediate Servo Spring when used with other APS Shift
Kit items will deliver exemplary shifting qualities normally associated with an
early style Hemi transmission rather then a late model slush box. Again it’s the
relationship of release and apply timing, overlap minimization, fill rates etc that
makes the TorqueFlite or any transmission shift like a champ. This part means that
you will get sure and positive engagements into and out of 2nd gear as well as sure
and steady 3rd gear applications. This Specific Rate Spring will aid in all performance
applications, use with the High Ratio Band Apply Lever for the most dramatic results.
This part is one of the key elements in the APS Transmission Shift System.
It is also available as part of the Ultimate Super Shift Kit package. Lifetime Warranty!
APS High Ratio Shift Lever (APS Exclusive Part)
Shift Timing is everything and this Steel Lever not only gives quicker
firmer engagement but also adds more holding power over the stock ratio arm by a
factor of over 50%. APS has done extensive testing over the years and has determined
this High Ratio Shift Lever is the perfect ratio to not only improve the 1-2 shifts
but also dramatically improve 2-3 Shifts when used with a shift kit or APS Valve
Body. Getting a quality shift on the 1-2 has never been the challenge on the TorqueFlite
but rather the 2-3, and this High Ratio Shift Lever really works to correct that.
Feel the total performance advantage when used in conjunction with other APS quality
transmission shift improver pieces like shift kits or APS Valve Bodies. Lifetime
Warranty!
Note: Transmission must be removed to install the High Ratio Shift Lever might
be a good time to install a Bracket Fighter High Stall High Efficiency Converter!
Special Note: Never use the 5.0 “Hemi” Ratio Lever on a 500 or 518 Model Transmission
it is too "bindy" and anyone who recommends this lever is not building a sound combination
of parts.
No Bend Reinforced Band Apply Strut (APS Exclusive Part)
The APS Band Apply Strut is manufactured in such a way that any bending, flexing or breaking, that is normally associated with the stock flat strut, is all but eliminated. This means sure and positive engagements into 2nd gear eliminating the possibility of Flare-ups due to poor band adjustment caused by bending strut issues. It’s a small price to pay for the peace of mind you will get. They are also available as part of the Ultimate Super Shift Kit package. Lifetime Warranty!
Performance Separator Plate
Far better then stock and made from tempered steel for durability then
treated with a zinc plating for total rust prevention with performance
calibration built in. Can be used in a stock or modified Gas Powered Truck with
42/44/46/48-RH or RE series transmission.
Brute Force Overdrive Spring
Replaces the Chrysler P/N 4461027 like a glove except its made from a
thicker gauge High-Temp material to eliminate direct clutch slip. Beef up
your overdrive unit with this spring available in all APS Racing Transmissions -
just say I need Brute Force! Fits All Late model RWD series transmissions with
Overdrive Unit.
Black Racing Band
APS has addressed a weak spot in the late model TorqueFlite transmission where
failing intermediate bands have caused the loss of 2nd gear. This issue has
become quite prevalent on heavy duty and racing applications where the lugs have
been ripped clean off the standard flex band causing a serious failure. This APS
Exclusive Band is finished with a Heavy Duty BLACK Lining that is both extremely
long lasting, heat resistant, and very "Grippy". Make this band part of your
overhaul or as an option on your APS StreetFighter or APS RaceFighter
Transmission.
Modified Switch Valve
This APS exclusive valve corrects the release timing of the Torque Converter
Clutch oil release circuit which does not exhaust properly when TCC apply is
called for - causing shudder and soft apply. It can be added to shift kits
or valve bodies
