heyyou, thanks for the reply and info.. the one tagged RFE is in a '03 durango i picked up with 4.7 and 4x4, the other, marked 45RFE is one i found online. Guy says he pulled it from a 2000 durango, for a 03 durango like mine, but it was wrong trans.. so, very confused here

Chrysler did some truly odd and strange things with engines/transmissions over the years....... best bet may be to try and find one out of the exact same year as your 'Rango...... better odds of it being correct that way.

What engine? Just as a wild guess, I'd say 46RE.
