I’m still stumped on the whole exhaust leak thing from the manifold. I’ll look into transmissions and what not at the junk yards around me. Does it mount right up or have a different bell housing? Although I suppose I could swap out the one from the CRd onto the one from the hemi. As far as the turbo goes I’ll pull The hoses and take a gander at it. Hopefully no shaft play.
All 545rfe transmissions are the same, inside and out.
Even the 45rfe and the 65rfe is the same as the 545rfe with some subtle differences.
But a 545rfe out of a Ram hemi will ensure that everything is a direct swap and includes the better torque converter.
But you will have to swap over your transfer case to the transmission.
And as Crasher has pointed out...
TIMING BELT!
