Hi, I'm Wade from Thoroughbred diesel, and today we're going to show you ATS's stage two,
6R140 transmission package. We had a friend of Thoroughbred
Diesel bust his input shaft in his stock 6R140 transmission in is 2015 Ford Powerstroke truck,
called us and needed an answer. We put him in the ATS stage two transmission package.
So let's talk for just a minute about what comes with the ATS stage two transmission package. As
with all ATS transmission packages, if you purchase them as a package,
which is transmission and torque converter and whatever shafts that come with it,
if you purchase the package you're going to get the five-year 500,000 mile warranty,
which is what you get with this. All right, on your 6R140 stage two package,
this package comes with the built 6R140 transmission. This transmission also has
the billet intermediate shaft. This comes with the extra deep ATS transmission pan. A note about
this, this gets you up to about 26 to 27 quarts of transmission fluid as a whole for the entire
transmission package. And then you also get the five-star viscous clutch torque converter.
So let's talk about each one of the different components individually. Again, the 6R140,
this is a fully built transmission, ready to drop in truck, ready to go. It's got the
billet intermediate shaft. This has got the, again, extra deep transmission pan,
26 to 27 quarts of transmission fluid. This is a cast pan so it adds rigidness to the transmission
case as a whole, so you don't have to worry about cracking of the transmission case. Again,
it's fully built, ready to drop in. Now, with the transmission that comes to
you there will be a red card that comes with the transmission that is going to have the
needed transmission strategy that will need to be programmed into the truck for this transmission to
shift correctly. The transmission strategy, again, written on the card for you to change over to. If
you don't use that transmission strategy you're not going to have very good shifts within trucks,
so make sure that you have somebody with ideas program the transmission strategies for you.
Now let's talk about the five-star torque converter. The five-star torque converter
from ATS, these are very, very robust torque converters. We opted for the 13 to 1500 RPM stall
on this truck, this truck tows quite a bit, so 1300, 1500 RPM is going to be perfect for us. With
the five-star torque converter you're getting the billet cover on the converter, you're getting 160%
more combined clutch surface area inside of this torque converter. You're also getting two time
more friction surfaces and 20% more piston surface areas. So that's going to give you much more
reliability and holding power from this torque converter. Again, you get the five year, 500,000
mile warranty with this torque converter. So that is the ATS stage two transmission
package. The only difference between the stage two and the stage one, the stage one
transmission package does not have the billet intermediate shaft. If you've already broken an
intermediate shaft I definitely suggest that you go ahead and do the billet intermediate shaft.
So that's a word about the ATS stage two six 6R140 transmission for the 2011 and up power strokes.
