i believe it is the build date of the truck....I have an SO Calif truck with a 47re that was built in oct 02 and I believe it was feb 03(I may be wrong!) that the 48re came into play...

My truck was built Jan 19th 2003 and it has the 48re and it is a SO. Your best bet is to take the VIN to the parts dept of your dealer and have them run a spec sheet on the truck 3 pages of everything your truck has.

If you stop by your service dept and ask for a build sheet for your truck's vin#, you'll get two or three sheets of everything your truck is made of. I got it on my '03. They didn't charge me for it and it only took a couple of minutes.
FWIW, my two 47RE's were trouble free except for a shorted governor pressure sensor/solenoid. Replaced under warranty. If you're running stock power and ATF+4, I wouldn't worry about it. The 47 is a good tranny.

And how to identify? Are the trans pans different shapes? If it is a 47 will the pan look like my 95? is there any tag or plate on trans anywhere?

There was a post somewhere on here a while back concerning this. The poster said something about the number of wires on the plug in on the tranny. If memory serves me, i believe he said 3 wires on the harness was a 47 and 4 wires was a 48.
