Hey all. need help id my tranny. tranny was replaced back before I bought her. Its 5.9 L gas power, 1998 dodge ram 2500 Quad cab. numbers I have stamped on trans. are as follows.
P K 5 2 1 9 8 2 3 8 8 0 2 2 9 6 3 1 4 figured it was easier to read for ya! help if you can. Been told supposed to be 46RE but thinking it is different, maybe 727 or ??

thanks all

 

I think you have the 46re, the 47re only came in cummins. I am sure someone will come along and confirm or set it right shortly.

 

Well also the Housing itself is stampled 0 6 4 - 9 on top. confused on whether or not tranny is stock. this truck has been beefed up with 1 ton suspension all way around before I snagged her up. And I would think it would say if its 46 re or so on the stamp. correct? not sure thats why getting help.. Thanks will wait to see who come up with the million dollar answer.

 

If you are still lost by tomorrow you should be able to call any Chrysler dealer and give them the numbers and they should be able to help you. I don't know how to decode the numbers and google was no help for me. I came up with that by searching for trans in a 2500.

 

Where did you find those #s ?

All 8 cylinder gas engines got the 46RE. 47-48RE won't even bolt up to them.

 

Well those numbers are stamped on the id plate for tranny right above oil pan, left side. the 0 6 4- 9 is stamped on bell housing( BIG NUMBERS ). I seen a message on anothe r board who had same bell housing numbers, and ASE certified mechanic said that his tranny was the 904 or 727 for chrysler. I'l see if I can find the reply from that site. thanks fo any help. still searching.

 

Hey I posted a pic of the tranny side shot in my albums. I can't get it to load more pics. or I could show the fron view and the stamp matches the sticker on mine. Oh and here is the message I copied from the other board I said about.

I need to know what transmission i have?
i have a 94 dodge ram 1500, it has a 360 motor, the transmission in the bed is suppose to be the right one, but i need to buy a front seal before i put it in, but i don't no what tranny i have. the numbers by the bell housing are 064-9 and by the rear seal 17905 10. dodge is Absolutely no help on this matter. all tips welcome on how to read the numbers. thanks everyone

it was a good answer

 

A 46RE, which what is normally behind your engine and what your picture looks very much like, is not much more than a 727 with an overdrive (4th) gear added on.

 

So Jason, what exactly are you saying? I have a 727. Cause my over drive housing is broke and tranny has a crack on top, and was dumping fluid before removing. Shouuld I find another 727 or what??

thanks for clearing this up
