And here we go...I'm new to this wrenchin stuff! - husband = get to fix truck myself! Never did much care for algebra! : D. It's actually a blessing in disguise. I'm the type of person that when I do something I do it five or six times just to make sure not necessarily by choice. So here we are.... I've learned the hard way not to let wannabe mechanics work on my truck. There's very few people I let touch it...now. when I do let someone work on it I have them teach me so I don't ever have to ask anybody for help on that specific problem again. Im like a sponge when it comes to learning about my Dodge...it's my baby...and it ain't running right now.
It's been down for about 2 years now. It got T-boned along with my trailer on the back and they both got totaled. Ever since then I've been trying to get it back on the road kind of by myself... Not knowing nothing when I started. when it got T-boned it cracked the overdrive housing while I didn't break up until one day I was going down the road. Ordered a 48re off of eBay and I got sent 47re. Took me a long time to come to that conclusion. They say you can make it work but it ain't but I haven't yet. And that's where I'm at right now. No I need to figure out how to make a 47re housing work with the 48re guts? is there a kit? See I had it all put back together and it wouldn't move. Then it started to move and I ended up busting the housing on the shifter cable and so I had to replace it. I had the shifter cable adjusted in both places and it was still an inch to long as far as his hooking it on the steering column. Somebody have figured I had gotten the wrong one being 47re so I took it back apart. And here we are...frustrated...
