Stage 1 Transmission Package

The ATS 309-912-3224 Stage 1 4R100 Transmission Package is a heavy-duty upgrade designed to enhance the performance and durability of 1999-2003 Ford Super Duty trucks equipped with the 7.3L Power Stroke diesel engine and a 2WD drivetrain. This comprehensive package is engineered to overcome the inherent weaknesses of the stock 4R100 transmission. It delivers significantly improved durability, superior torque handling capabilities, and increased overall reliability, making it an ideal solution for demanding applications such as towing, heavy hauling, and rigorous work use. The upgrade ensures smoother, more efficient power transfer under load, reducing stress on critical components. The Stage 1 package features a built 4R100 automatic transmission, an ATS Five Star torque converter, and an ATS deep transmission pan. Each of these meticulously engineered components works in synergy to boost clutch holding capacity, effectively manage heat buildup, and provide a more refined power delivery. The ATS Five Star torque converter specifically enhances torque multiplication and lock-up performance, while the deep transmission pan increases vital fluid capacity and improves cooling efficiency, collectively extending the transmission's service life and maintaining consistent performance even in harsh diesel environments. This Stage 1 upgrade is perfectly suited for truck owners seeking a dependable enhancement over the factory setup without compromising daily drivability. It offers a balanced improvement for daily driving, towing, and moderate performance applications.
