Ramcharger, Trailduster & Power Wagon Grrrr!! Tough Trucks! The Dodge Ramcharger and Plymouth Trailduster were full size SUV's that had good looks and brute strength. The Dodge Power Wagon was comparable to them in toughness, but came in pickup truck form only.

Default Need a 4 speed tranny with overdrive for my 89 dodge ramcharger

I have an 89 dodge Ramcharger with a 316 engine. At some point there was a 360 in it. Now I currently have a little 3 speed automatic, which I am trying to get a 4 speed tranny with overdrive because my current 3 speed tranny slips outta gear all the time not to mention its a bout 4000 rpms going down the highway. But I'm in desperate need of this transmission and could use any feedback about how I could get it and also get it rebuilt. That's my plan is to get a old 4 speed tranny and pay someone to completely rebuild it. Here's my cell : 240-215-5907

you would be looking for a a518 (3 speed with OD) which is a pretty common transmission. Check craigslist and junkyards and maybe even a local transmission shop.

Ya. A 4 speed With o/d is a 5 speed. What you want is a 4 speed. Also, you dont have a 316. You possibly have a 318.
But you not knowing these things will make it hard for people to sell you the right things.
