What do mean it could go either way? Did the 727 ever come with an hole/slot for the crank position sensor? I believe I'm looking at a transmission from the A518 family 46re/rh not sure if 44re/rh came with the same bolt pattern.

44, and, I think, even the 42R? will have the same bolt pattern......

Magnum engines started in 92 (318), and 93 (360), I don't really know if they had the CPS on them at that point or not..... I shot of the whole trans might help.

Looks a lot like a 46R? trans. Check the connector (white) that sits on top of the valve body just in front of the rear cooling line fitting. 3 pin is RH, 8 pin is RE. RH will NOT work in the 96 and up trucks. It offends the PCM.

It has 3 pins in the white connector.

That makes it an RH, which will NOT work on your 98.

Thanks for all the help. I knew it wouldn't work in the 98. It's a 4wd. I bought that truck for a parts truck for my 99. Which is also a 4wd. The guy I bought the 98 from, had gotten it thinking it would work, discovered it wouldn't work and then just decided to sell the truck along with the wrong tranny. I don't need it, so I was just trying to figure out what it was so I could sell it.

Ah, ok, that makes sense. if it works, its worth a couple hundred bucks anyway. Money in my pocket NEVER hurts my feelings.

Yeah that's what I thought. Guy said it was rebuilt. I can't use it so I figured I'd just use it to recoup some of the $400 I paid for the truck. I was just reading on some other site..that the difference between RH & RE. H is for Hydraulic and E is for Electronic. So if that is true wouldn't that make mine a RE transmission?
