What transmission is in my Dodge Ram?
First manufactured in 1981, the Dodge Ram line of pickups has been named Truck of the Year four times by 'Motor Trend' magazine and is currently built in Michigan and Mexico. These durable pickups provide years of reliable service, but, like all mechanical contrivances, components do eventually need replaced. However, when the transmission needs repaired or replaced in your durable pickup truck, how do you know which of the available transmissions you need to order?
All of the Dodge Ram transmissions have an identifying code on them, but it may not be easy to interpret. The first set of numbers indicates the part number, the second set indicates the build date and the remaining digits indicate the serial number. Documented owners can contact Dodge directly and obtain the transmission information from them via U.S. mail, although this takes close to a month and sometimes that is too long to wait for the information to arrive.

Why Automatic Transmissions Fail
Automatic transmission failure may be cause by low fluid level, or contaminated fluid brought on by heat buildup and non metal part degradation, and clogging veins in the valve body, pump and torque converter. When exchanging your automatic transmission make sure to flush the actual fluid through the cooling system including lines from your transmission to the radiator and the reservoir underneath the radiator at the least a few times while using correct chemicals. When adding automatic transmission fluid or changing your transmission fluid verify and make certain the manufactures recommend fluid must be used. A person can be shocked the number of times the incorrect fluid is utilized leading to an on-slot of issues.
