Ok will a tranny out of a 95 ram 1500 4x4 work in a 2000 dodge ram 1500 4x4 both 360s with floor shifter

 

Automatic trans? Nope.

Manual trans? Maybe. Which trans do the trucks have?

 

automatic

 

Definitely not then.

Ideally, you need the trans out of a 2000-2001 truck, what engine it's behind just doesn't matter. 96-99 will work, but, you need to change all the electronics in the trans, as things changed in 00.

 

so it a no it will not work i take it then and explain why

 

That would be good.....

Dodge changed the way the transmissions worked in 96. Older transmissions were hydraulically controlled, and the computer took care of torque converter clutch, and O/D. In 96, that changed to the electronic governor setup, and the computer controlled EVERYTHING. You can't adapt an older trans to work in the newer trucks, as the PCM will be seriously confused by NOT getting some of the inputs from the trans it expects. The trans itself would likely work, but, TCC, and O/D would likely not. (and the CEL would constantly be on as well.) Things changed again in 00, and the sensor outputs were different. (as are some of the internal connectors, and the retainer clip for the pressure sensor.) You can swap the electronics around, to match the year of your truck, without much trouble.

Also, on the 360 motors, balance becomes an issue. They are all externally balanced, in 95 and older, the balance weights were on the torque converter, 96 and up, the weights are on the flexplate.
