How to tell a 47re from a 48re OD.And will the guts from a 47 fit a 48 OD ?
This all started when trying to fix park .Pulled the OD out ,and found a broken snap ring so i took it to a trans shop .Trans shop said i might have the wrong park rod .I did some Google and find i may have a 47re OD unit .How to tell ,and will the guts from a 47re fit a 48 re . I need to get park fixed .

 

Please provide your vehicle information so this can be moved to the proper tech section.

 

Truck is a 2004.5 dodge diesel 5.9 .

 

Why would you put the guts from a 47 into a 48? The 48 is the stronger trans......

 

Because i know where there is a 48 re case i could get .
All is good though as i found out my OD unit is 48re .
still have to find out why the park does not work .

 

Mechanical linkage. Sometimes it is tricky to get back together......

 

I did get it back together and it is working fine ,sure is nice to have park .
