Your truck has the Allison 1000. The medium dutys have the stronger 2000-3000 transmissions.

01-05 5spd Allisons 100hp over rwhp, 06- up 6spd Allisons 120hp over rwhp. I've ran a 160hp ppe tune on my stock trans with bigger tires with no issues and it straight rips with a 120 bully dog in it, they do an excellent job defueling their tunes for shifts imo.

Smarty is the big deal for Rams with Bully Dog second and Hypertech moving up fast.
