I bought a 2000 ram 2500 with the 5 speed manual. It quit going into gear. When taking the drive shafts off to take the tranny out. I seen that the tranny only seemed to be bolted straight to the block. No flex plate or block plate. Should it have even been driving? There was nothing to bolt the bell housing to on the bottom half of the block. What should I do?
I don't think there is one....... should be a couple braces running from the motor mounts, down to the bellhousing though. (and I am sure they are frequently left off, after anyone does trans work.......)
