Power Driven 47RE / 48RE 2nd Gear Lockup Valve Body Plate

The Power Driven 2nd Gear Lockup Plate is a precision-engineered solution designed to modify factory valve bodies for 2^nd gear lockup in 47 and 48 series transmissions.

In 47RH/47RE valve bodies, this plate enables true 2nd gear torque converter lockup, helping reduce converter slip, improve efficiency, and lower transmission temperatures—especially beneficial in towing and performance applications.

For 48RE valve bodies, the Power Driven plate eliminates 1st gear lockup, allowing you to have lockup on at the line, and preventing 1^st to 2^nd lock shifts.

This plate also corrects a common issue in modified valve bodies where the transmission may short shift into 3rd gear what lockup is applied, restoring proper shift timing and overall drivability.

Lockup function remains fully controlled—the converter will only lock when commanded by the ECM or when using a manual lockup switch, ensuring you maintain complete control over engagement.

Features:

• Enables 2nd gear lockup in 47RH / 47RE valve bodies
• Removes 1st gear lockup in 48RE valve bodies
• Fixes premature 3rd gear lockup / short-shift issues
• Maintains ECM or manual switch-controlled lockup
• Precision laser cut for accuracy
• Surface ground for flatness and reliable sealing

Manufactured by Power Driven, this plate offers a clean, consistent, and durable solution compared to improvised modifications—ideal for both work trucks and performance builds.
