if your slipping in second you need a rebuild i will cost you abit. but you can get a ats performance trans for a little bit more money and it will last forever and will also support power addons to your engine with out tearing the trans up like a stock tranny. i would go ats with a ats torque converter you will have less problems and more towing power better shifts and higher torque converter lockup.

As time goes by that slipping will get bad enough the truck will barely move. Right now you are losing power and mpg w/ that convertor. I work for Cummins, and my service truck and personal truck both require a new converter every 80k miles and a trans rebuild at about 120k miles. The trans are the weak spot. It is best to go to a reputable diesel shop that does transmissions. Have them install an aftermarket torque converter. The $$$ you save will allow you to upgrade the trans to the point it will never blow again. Has Dogde fixed this issue with the tranny by making a better one?

I had the same prob in my 05' 2500 @ about 120,000 for 75.00 I took it to a local tranny shop and had the fluid and filter changed and bands adjusted now it works great.
