Dave, you are going to lose the core money anyway with a cracked case.

Where are you from? I do know of one fellow who has stuck 3 rebuilds from AutoZone in already, he isn't terribly impressed to say the least.

It shouldn't be too hard to find a core trans, the RE was built long enough, the V10 is the same as well.

I was figuring I might loose the core unless I can find a cheap broken one.

maybe I'll stay away from autozone..

I'm near RTP, NC..

is this just the over drive unit? can this be replaced separatly? sources?

Yep, OD unit, opens up a WHOLE 'nother ballgame. The housing is the same for umpteen years, all 42/46/47 RE units, you can have a trans guy rebuild your guts and drop it in a new case.

Fleabay is loaded with cases if you don't have a good yard close by who will part one out.

PS any idea why she cracked?

Dave:

I have a good friend in Raleigh by the name of Phil McMaster who does Dodge CTD Transmission work. He may very well have just a core or be able to find you one.

I will P.M. his phone number to you.
