Yea that was my concern the trans and the differences in the electricals so get a 46re out of something 2001+?

Thanks for the info magnet head I’ll give you an update in a few days waiting on that flexplate to get here guess I need to find a transmission to the 42re works i just don’t want to be doing this again in a few months

Won’t the 46re fit? They came in the dakota rt? Would one out a 03 2wd ram work? I’m looking at a low mileage 46re from the same truck my pcm Came from one of my buddy’s parts these trucks out I’m trying to avoid trips to the shop I got the tranny out just waiting on that flex plate to get here

Alright I’ll change that flexplate and get the 46re in a few days and be done with that. Those 2 pins for the injectors were loose I replaced them 2 wires off another harness I have they’re tight now hopefully that’s good I’ll have it put back together in a few days I’ll let you know how it goes and thanks again for the help I learned a lot since the 3 days I been on this forum
