The 727 and A518 and later 47/48 RE/RH tansmissions use one pan, while the 904, A500, and 46RE/RH use another. Which is which, I'm not sure. In 01, I think it would have the 47RE, the heavier one based off the 727. RE means it is electronicaly governed. RH means it is hydraulically governed. 4 means it's a 4 speed, and the 6,7,or 8 is a relative number for torque capacity. The 4 speeds are a 3 speed with an OD unit bolted onto the back. Which could have easily made the RE models a 6 speed, had they been thinking ahead when they engineered the OD unit. Here is an article for the transmission you have. The band procedure is the same. http://www.dieseltruckresource.com/faq/faq.php?display=faq&nr=24&catnr=7&prog=1&lang=en&onlynewfaq=1 72 inch pounds is 6 foot pounds. [Reply]   [No Email]

Truck still has the window sticker which states the truck came with the 46RE transmission and the factory tow package. Nice to know what the truck is equipped with. [Reply]  [No Email]

It should have the auxiliary cooler in it already, also. Look for an oil cooler in with the radiator and AC condenser, if it has AC, to verify. When you get your filter it'll come with both gaskets. Just use the one that fits your pan. [Reply]  [No Email]

See, dad, reading all those MOPAR magazines for all those years wasn't such a waste after all. [Reply]  [No Email]
