PML designed this pan for the Aisin AS69RC transmission. This PML pan has also been installed on the related Aisin AS66RC and A466ND transmissions. Installer must verify that this pan is appropriate for the specific vehicle configuration.
This pan may also fit Ram 6.4 Hemi engine trucks with the AS66RC. Check exhaust routing before ordering.
Video about this pan: New PML Aisin Transmission Pan.
Installation Note: On some vehicles, there cross member towards the rear of the vehicle that makes the bolts on the back end of the transmission pan difficult to access. Although PML designed this pan to provide as much clearance as possible to those bolts, it might be necessarily to jack up the transfer case to remove the stock pan and and install the PML pan. Several customers have recommended using a 5mm ball socket for the three rear bolts under the cross member.
Applications:
Possible applications:
2013 and newer Ram 3500, 4500, 5500 trucks with the 6.7 Cummins high output diesel
2015 and newer Ram Cab & Chassis with 6.4L Hemi (Aisin is an option, other transmissions possible), check for exhaust clearance
2016 and newer Titan XD, diesel engine
We have had an installation on a 2024 Ram 2500 diesel truck and the exhaust was NOT routed under the transmission pan and the PML pan fit great. See INSTALLATIONS section for pictures of this installation.
Always check your truck to verify your configuration and clearance. Configurations vary and there is a restocking fee for returned parts.
Titan Owners: The 2016 to 2019 Nissan Titan XD diesel trucks have the Aisin A466ND transmission, which has the same stock pan and gasket and very similar filter. See pictures of an installlation of this pan on a Titan in the Installations section.
Ram 6.4 Hemi Owners: Some Ram trucks have the exhaust routed under the rear of transmission pan. This may be specific to trucks with the Hemi engine. Check for clearance before ordering. The picture below is from a 2021 Ram 3500 4x4 Chassis Cab 6.4 Hemi AS66RC transmission. The exhaust crosses under the area where the PML pan slants and follows the profile of the OEM pan. We do not know if the PML pan fit this truck.

PML located the drain plug on the driver's side of the pan. On the side of the pan, the drain plug is less likely to get damaged.
Optional Machining for Temperature Sending Unit
Optionally, this pan can be machined for a temperature sending unit.
If you would like PML to drill and tap hole, there is a machining charge. There are three possible locations. Select the option before clicking the ADD TO CART button. A plug for the hole is included. The standard size is 1/8 NPT. Call or email if you need a different size.
This pan has three locations that can be machined for a temperature sending unit:
- Front of pan
- Driver's side of pan toward the front of the pan
- Passenger's side of the pan, toward the rear of the pan
These locations are circular bosses that are thicker areas on the casting and are designed to be drilled and tapped.
