Default 1500/2500 transmission interchangeable?

My 2001 dodge 2500 4x4 5.9 gas 46re auto tranny is bad

I just found a 2001 dodge 1500 sport with 5.9 gas and auto for super cheap so does this have the same trAnny as my 2500????

The 1500 needs a new front axle and radiator so the guy is selling it cheap I'm thinking if the trannys are the same I can swap it I to my truck and I'll have a good parts truck as well

Try to just get the trans. You don't want the axles or anything else off yhe 1500 supsenion wise. It is 4x4 right?

It's a quad cab short bed just like my truck plus it has the 360 so if I buy the whole truck I'd have a spare motor and all the body parts and yes it's a 4x4 it's lifted and has a eaton locker In the rear with paper work so I'm sure I could sell the 1/2 ton lift and 5 lug rear end to make a couple bucks back...
