Price Diesel Performance

At Price Diesel Performance, we don't just replace transfer cases—we rebuild them in-house using quality components and proven upgrades designed to improve durability and long-term reliability.

This Duramax transfer case was completely disassembled, inspected, and rebuilt with all new bearings, sprockets, seals, and a new drive chain. During the rebuild, we also installed an upgraded oil pump and billet pump-rub prevention plate. This upgrade addresses one of the most common failure points in these transfer cases, where the factory oil pump can wear through the rear housing over time, causing fluid loss and catastrophic internal damage.

By replacing all wear components and incorporating upgraded parts during the rebuild, we were able to restore proper operation while increasing the transfer case's resistance to future failures.

Whether you use your truck for towing, work, or daily driving, this rebuild provides peace of mind knowing your transfer case has been professionally rebuilt with components designed to handle the demands of a diesel truck and keep you on the road for years to come.

Owning a diesel truck long enough means that eventually you'll see the dreaded **"Service DEF System"** message, often followed by warnings that the vehicle will be speed limited if the issue isn't corrected. When that happens, it's easy to get frustrated and start looking for quick fixes.

You may hear people say, "Just remove the emissions system." However, that's not always the best solution. In many cases, proper diagnostics can pinpoint the actual cause of the problem, whether it's a sensor, DEF component, wiring issue, or another repairable fault. Surprisingly often, the correct repair is far less expensive than most owners expect.

At Price Diesel Performance, we believe in finding the root cause before recommending major repairs or modifications. Our diagnostic process allows us to accurately identify what's causing the warning message so you can make an informed decision based on facts, not guesswork.

Before assuming the worst, let our team inspect the system. The solution may be simpler, faster, and more cost-effective than you think, helping you get back on the road without unnecessary expense.

What started as a simple low coolant warning quickly turned into a much larger repair.

This truck arrived with a low coolant light illuminated and an empty coolant reservoir. During our initial inspection, we found a heater core fitting had failed and blown apart. We replaced it with an upgraded metal fitting, vacuum-filled the cooling system with fresh coolant, and performed a test drive to verify the repair.

After the test drive, we rechecked the cooling system and found excessive cooling system pressure—an indication that there was more going on than just a failed fitting.

Further diagnostics confirmed a head gasket failure.

Rather than cutting corners, we removed the cab to gain complete access to the engine and cylinder heads. This allowed us to easily remove the cylinder heads, thoroughly inspect the engine block, verify all sealing surfaces, and ensure the repair was completed correctly the first time. The cylinder heads and engine block were checked for flatness, and all valves were vacuum tested to verify proper sealing before reassembly.

Once everything passed inspection, we reassembled the engine using new OE head gaskets and head studs.

While the engine was apart, we also addressed several common leak points and maintenance items, including:

New OE head gaskets
Head studs
New water pump
New flywheel housing coolant cover
New gaskets and seals throughout
Fresh oil and filter service

By taking the time to inspect everything properly and address potential future issues while access was available, this customer can get back on the road with confidence knowing the cooling system and engine are ready for many more miles.

Another 68RFE ready to go.

This transmission was built for a local shop using our 68RFE Ultra Stock+ package, designed for tuned trucks and trucks that spend their lives towing, hauling, and working hard.

We focus on upgrading the areas that matter most for durability, holding power, and long-term reliability. This build includes:

In-house built high-pressure pump
Billet valve body
Billet input shaft
Increased clutch count in the overdrive clutch pack
Upgraded low/reverse sprag assembly
Billet snap ring retainers
New clutches, steels, seals, gaskets, and bearings throughout
New pistons throughout the transmission
New transmission sensors
New cooler line fittings
New solenoid pack
Goerend triple-disc torque converter
Goerend deep transmission pan

Whether you're towing heavy, running additional horsepower, or simply looking for a transmission that can handle more than stock, our Ultra Stock+ package is built to deliver the reliability and performance that the 68RFE should have had from the factory.

Built in-house. Built to work. Built to last.

Proper maintenance is one of the most important factors in keeping your diesel truck reliable and avoiding costly repairs.

Routine maintenance includes engine oil changes, fuel filter replacement, transmission and driveline services, and servicing the emissions system. One area that is often overlooked is the DEF system. Allowing the DEF tank to run low enough to trigger speed limitations or a no-start condition can place additional stress on components such as the DEF pump and level sensor, potentially leading to expensive aftertreatment repairs.

Whether you perform your own maintenance or trust our team to handle it, staying ahead of scheduled service intervals is essential. Preventive maintenance is always more affordable than major repairs and helps keep your truck operating at its best when you need it most.

A little maintenance today can help prevent a big repair bill tomorrow.

Electrical issues are becoming more common as diesel trucks reach 10-15 years of age. Some are age-related, but many are the result of improper repairs performed years earlier.

This truck came in with a transmission stuck in limp mode and a fault code for the Low/Reverse Solenoid Circuit. Following OEM diagnostics pointed toward ECM replacement as the next step, but we could not verify that the ECM had actually failed. Instead of replacing an expensive component based on a process of elimination, we continued diagnosing the electrical system.

What we found was a heavily damaged power circuit that supplies both the ECM and transmission. The wiring had been cut, improperly spliced, and pierced multiple times during previous repair attempts.

Tracing the circuit further revealed the real problem: a terminal under the fuse box had been spread open and was no longer making contact, resulting in zero voltage on the circuit. Despite this major issue, there were no ECM voltage-related fault codes stored—only the transmission solenoid code.

We also found damaged wiring at the transmission line pressure sensor connector and replaced the connector pigtail before it could create future problems.

The repair included:
✔ Restoring the damaged wiring
✔ Replacing the faulty terminal
✔ Installing a new pressure sensor connector pigtail
✔ Verifying proper system operation

This is a perfect example of why fault codes don't always identify the root cause. Thorough diagnostics saved this customer from an unnecessary ECM replacement and ensured the actual problem was fixed correctly the first time.
