Can I put a new 454rfe transmission in my jeep or does it have to be from our years, 2005-06? I keep seeing used transmissions for sale from newer ram trucks and I wanted to know if they would fit or if it would require to change out parts to make it work. |

If you own a CRD, you want the transmission to be from a CRD. The gear ratios are pretty different. Is there something wrong with yours? |

I'm pretty sure all 545rfe transmissions are the same The only differences are in the TCM for each vehicle. |

Gear ratios are the same across all of them. The transmission case for the CRD is different from those used behind gasoline engines. |

The transmission casing should be the same, the bell housing might be different, but that doesn't make any sense to me. Auto makers are cheap, they won't want to make a different adapter if they don't absolutely have to. I can't recall what the boneyard Trans I bought came from, but I don't think I was specific about it being a CRD unit when I was looking. |

I put a 545rfe from a Ram into one of my CRD's. I had to swap a few parts from the output end of the old one to the new one. No problem. |
