Default 95 transmission issue

ive done some searching but cant find an answer. i have a 95 1500 with a 46rh that needs replaced. the junkyard sold me the only transmission they have and it turns out its a 46re. is it possible to put the rh valve body and pan to convert to hydraulic or are the valve bodies completely different just trying to find a way around returning this transmission if i can

I believe you can make the RE to RH just by swapping the valvebodies (and probably the separator plate). But then there's a wiring harness. RH needs only three wires, whereas RE has some more, 8 IIRC, so the connector may be different size.

Nope. The RH has a mechanical governor, that the RE has no provision for. You need an RH transmission.
