I think you can brake down the part numbers by using the service manual in the FAQ. Or your local dealer can help with that. Also the FAQ has list of the transmissions by year and engines.

You didn't say what engine you have, for 96 V8 is 46RE, V6 is 42RE. If your looking for a replacement only 4wd will work for you.

It's an A518 (46RH).
It came with the 5.2L engines in 1993, up to build date 10-1-1992. This is per the parts manual.

I could give you a build date (that's the 1367) but Chrysler is mentally challenged with numbers. Apparently it would be too hard to use 93001, or 3001 to signify January 1, 1993 (using a Julian Date format, 001 being January 1, 365 being December 31). Instead they have a nonsensical 10,000 day format, OR a Julian Date format that makes no sense. Go figure. The company can't build transmissions right, and can't figure out a date-stamp system that makes sense.

I beg to differ on the tranny thing. The very first Ford had a Dodge brothers tranny powering it. They've been doin trannys since before they built vehicles. They were the ones to set the date format :P
