I would be REAL surprised if that is accurate... or if it is, if the trans still works..... That is indeed a LOT of miles.

Yes sir it is they responded and said it is in fact still there but that is the mileage on the truck itself. They also said that odds are that the transmission would have been changed once or twice with that many miles but there's no way to tell. I texted him back and ask them if the price was negotiable and are if there's any type of warranty on it. I have decided to take mine to the local transmission man who comes highly recommended because I'm running out of time and I would have never dreamed it would be this difficult to locate a salvage transmission. BUT LIKE I SAID I AM GOING TO FIND ONE AND I AM GOING TO REBUILD ONE..

The trans guy can have it rebuilt in about 3-4 hours and you can look for one without hurry. It's not going to take him weeks, but maybe to get to it. car-part.com

Yes exactly that's why I'm going to go ahead and just let the transmission man rebuild the one I have then I can use my pickup with the rebuilt tranny and then go find one I can rebuild myself. He's been in Quinlan Texas for 24 years in the transmission business and he has a five-star rating.. he comes highly recommended so that's the route I'm going to go. There are more than several within 300 miles on carparts.com so that is a plus. You'll never know how much I appreciate the turn on to carparts.com. matter of fact every piece of advice and knowledge I've got from this forum has been above and beyond excellent and professional....

Good morning gentlemen... Where should I direct my questions about the air conditioning condensing coil on the front of this 94 Dodge Ram... Apparently it has some minor damage but still damaged on the bottom few tubes and will have to be replaced unless it can be repaired.

If you can find one, just replace it. RockAuto, or your local parts store should be able to get you one.

TY... I found one on eBay for 60.00 with a BBB accredited business. (Plus Good eBay reviews)... I'll have to get a set of line disconnect tools..(for spring loaded connections)...
I'll research a proper Recharge process, because obviously the System has been "OPEN" for.some time now...and I've heard that isn't a good thing. I pressed the valve in the Charge Port, and it had like NO pressure in it.

QUESTION... I can't really find a YouTube video for a 1994 the closest one I found so far on replacing the condenser and working with the system is 2001 and they all keep talking about an.."AC CONDENSER FAN MOTOR"... DOES THE 1994 5.2 DODGE RAM 1500 HAVE A CONDENSER FAN AC CONDENSER FAN?... Because if it does hurt not one in this one. ALTHOUGH, there is a two wire plug electrical plug in the area that I did not disconnect from anything prior. Maybe it has an option for one? He did have the radiator replaced at one point. I'm not sure who or when.
