The Ram 3500 average ($426) runs 15% above its median ($372), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.
Our guide covers 10 model years for the Ram 3500 (2016–2025) but only 8 for the Jeep Cherokee (2015–2023), so the Ram 3500 data reflects a broader range of generations.
Only 48% of Ram 3500 torque converter listings include a posted price (26 of 54 observed) — the rest are "call for price," which usually signals negotiable or higher-than-average pricing.
At Grade A (excellent) condition, the Jeep Cherokee is 43% cheaper ($215 vs $375) — the gap widens compared to the overall median difference.
Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used torque converter
- Match stall speed rating, flexplate bolt pattern diameter, and pilot hub dimensions to your engine and transmission combination.
- Inspect turbine neck and pump drive hub for scoring, bluing from extreme heat, or worn torque converter clutch friction lining metal debris.
- Shake the unit or inspect fluid drained from it for metallic glint or dark burnt oil indicating internal clutch failure.
- Check input shaft spline teeth and stator splines inside the hub to ensure none are stripped or rounded off.
