Just wondering if it's possible. I'm pretty sure the rest of these transmissions are basically the same.
I have an '91 Dakota (5.2 TBI) with A500 trans that destroyed the OD clutch pack(and actually damaged the tail housing). I am swapping a '97 5.2 magnum into this truck and have the trans with it(44RE). I'm using a '92 Dakota harness, so I still need a RH trans. I thought of the possibility of putting the A500 valve body in the 44RE trans, just not 100% sure it would work.
I figured since everything involving the RH vs the RE is valve body related, that maybe they could be swapped. If not, I did just pick up a '92 A518(46RH) to rebuild.
