i was wondering if the 48 re input shaft out of my 03 will fit in a 2002 47re? also is the 48 input shaft stronger than the 47? thanks

 

The 48RE shaft is stronger than the 47. In a 47 I think you have to use the 48RE TC also but not positive. Maybe a few other parts as well.

 

thanks

 

They are the same. You will be good to go.

 

No, they are NOT the same.

 

I agree.

 

Whats the difference?I thought the difference was the seal on the stator support . Trevor

 

I'm interested in this too. I have been contemplating a billet shaft. As an alternative, I thought I might just put in an input shaft out of a later model in my truck. I called the local Chrysler dealership and they told me that the input shaft and hub out of a 1998 12-valve and a 2006 48RE were the same part number. That to me says there is no difference in them. But, if they are not the same can someone elaborate on what the difference is?
