Pacific Performance Engineering Heavy-Duty Cast Aluminium Transmission Pan for Dodge Ram 2500/3500 6.7L 68RFE — Brushed, +3 qt Capa

PPE Heavy Duty Cast Aluminum Transmission Pan (Brushed) 228052110 is a high-capacity replacement pan designed to lower transmission fluid temperatures and capture ferrous debris for Dodge Ram 2500/3500 6.7L with the 68RFE transmission.

Built by Pacific Performance Engineering, this flat-bottom, cast-aluminum transmission pan adds cooling and protection to the 68RFE application. Its external cooling fins and internal heat-sink geometry increase surface area to dissipate heat, while the added three quarts of fluid capacity improves thermal stability during towing, hauling or heavy-duty operation. A neodymium-equipped stainless steel drain plug collects ferrous particles, and built-in ports accept temperature probes so you can monitor operating conditions without modifying the pan.

How does this pan reduce transmission operating temperature?

The pan combines increased fluid volume with aluminum construction and engineered cooling surfaces to lower fluid temperatures. Greater capacity slows heat rise, while the fins and internal heat sinks transfer heat away from the fluid faster than a stock stamped steel pan.

• Aluminum cast construction for higher thermal conductivity
• External cooling fins to increase airflow contact
• Internal heat sinks that draw heat from fluid pockets
• 3-quart capacity increase to dilute heat spikes under load

What filtration and debris protection does it provide?

The pan includes a neodymium-equipped, 1-inch stainless steel drain plug that attracts and holds harmful ferrous particles removed from the fluid. This magnetic drain plug works continuously while the vehicle operates and offers a convenient inspection point at drain intervals.

• 1-inch stainless drain plug with neodymium magnet for ferrous capture
• Works with OEM gasket for secure sealing
• Improves contaminant control between service intervals

Can I monitor transmission temperature and service the pan easily?

Yes—PPE designed the pan with two NPT ports and a dedicated access zone for temperature probes, making it simple to add sensors without drilling. The stainless steel drain plug also simplifies fluid changes and inspections.

• Two NPT plugs for aftermarket sensors or accessories
• Access ports compatible with temperature probes for real-time monitoring
• 1-inch drain plug for straightforward fluid changes and debris checks

Does this pan fit my truck and what else should I pair with it?

This pan is engineered specifically for the Dodge Ram 2500/3500 6.7L with the 68RFE transmission and accepts the OEM gasket for a direct-fit installation. For improved filtration lifespan and protection, pair the pan with PPE’s larger media spin-on transmission filter.

• Direct compatibility with Ram 68RFE transmissions (2500/3500 6.7L)
• Accepts OEM gasket for simple replacement installation
• Recommended upgrade: PPE 228052150 spin-on transmission filter with 57% more media

Who is this for: This PPE 228052110 transmission pan is aimed at Ram 2500 and 3500 owners who tow, haul or operate their trucks under heavy loads and want improved transmission cooling, longer fluid life and better ferrous-particle control. It’s also a solid choice for technicians and DIY installers seeking straightforward sensor integration and a durable cast-aluminum upgrade with a limited lifetime warranty.
