Engineering of the 2019 RAM HD
With a towing capacity of 35,100 pounds and payload capacity topping 7,680 pounds, the 2019 Ram Heavy Duty is the most powerful and capable pickup available to the segment. Which wouldn’t be possible if it hadn’t been engineered to be so powerful from the inside out. With a powertrain that won’t quit and confidence-inspiring build, the 2019 Ram Heavy Duty is a vehicle to behold.
Putting the Power in Powertrain
The star engine of the 2019 Ram Heavy Duty line is the Cummins 6.7-liter I-6 high output Turbodiesel engine that delivers 1,000 pound-feet of torque at 1,800 rpm and 400 horsepower at 2,800 rpm. This raw power comes from a cylinder block of compacted graphite iron, a cast-iron cylinder head with new exhaust valves, springs, and rocker arms; stronger, lighter pistons with low-friction rings that connect to the crankshaft via forged connecting rods and bearings, and an all-new exhaust manifold with a variable-geometry turbocharger with laminated heat shields that deliver boost pressure up to 33 psi. All this while weighing 60 pounds less than previous Ram engines, yet still delivering more torque and power. Additionally, there is a second version of the Cummins engine that delivers 370 horsepower at 2,800 rpm and 850 pound-feet of torque at 1,700 rpm while the standard engine for the 2500 and 3500 versions has been upgraded to a 6.4-liter HEMI V8 that delivers 410 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 429 pound-feet of torque at 4,000 rpm.
The primary Cummins Turbodiesel engine comes equipped with an Aisin AS69RC electronically controlled six-speed automatic transmission that’s been engineered to handle increased torque and weight ratings while allowing for improved shift quality. The Aisin AS69RC utilizes a new transmission controller that doubles the memory of previous versions for faster and more precise shifts regardless of driving or loading conditions. The second version of the engine features an upgraded 68RFE 6-speed automatic transmission that offers improved electronically controlled transmission shift quality with variable-force solenoid controls for the torque-converter clutch while a new reverse accumulator has improved the shift feel when shifting to park and reverse. Meanwhile, the 2500 and 3500 come with the smooth-shifting TorqueFlight 8HP75 8-speed automatic transmission that optimizes shift points for drivability, fuel economy, and performance with shift-by-wire technology that eliminates the mechanical linkage between the gear selector and transmission.
Engineered for Success
As the most powerful and capable pickup in the segment, the 2019 Ram Heavy Duty has been engineered to instill confidence and make it so you won’t even realize you’re towing as much as you are. The frame has been build with nearly 99% high-strength steel with fully boxed rear rails, six separate crossmembers, and hydroformed main rails for mass efficiency and optimal strength while Active-Tuned Mass Modules apply countermeasures to eliminate unfavorable vibrations along the frame. There are also wide front frame rails that enable positive roll stiffness generation while the structure of the rear frame includes fully boxed rear rails and a rear-axle structural crossmember that allows for gooseneck hitches.
Don’t Leave Me in Suspension
With Frequency Response Damping shocks on all four corners, the 2019 Ram Heavy Duty is able to take advantage of a sports-car-like suspension for its handling and a supple suspension for rougher terrain thanks to upgraded bushings and progressive springs within the suspension system. The 2500 and 3500 models also have access to an Active-Level rear air suspension that includes a Bed-lowering mode for easier trailer hook-ups. The 2500 uses air bags instead of coil springs, which only improves its already best-in-class ride and handling while the 3500 features a Hotchkiss rear leaf-spring system. The supplemental air bags soften the heavy-load leaf springs for improved unladed suspension movement.
Additionally, the braking system has had upgrades to the master cylinder, calipers, and booster which, combined with its larger-ratio pedal swing, allow the 2019 Ram Heavy Duty to brake more confidently with less effort on the part of the driver. This re-engineered system also allows for shorter stopping distances.
Engineered from the inside out to be as powerful and impressive as can be, the 2019 Ram Heavy Duty is a pickup that won’t let you down. Check out our inventory to see when we have some in stock, then stop on by to try one for yourself.
