They are 46RE transmissions. Do they look the same? Both 4x4 or both 2wd? More info would help.

i don't know - but doubt that the 4.7 durango uses the 46re. it likely has the newer trans used by the 3rd gen ram trucks. 545 or something.....

Seems like MORE info is helpful!....such as engine size......


Maybe there should be a thread for noobs where they can be provided information such as that!
