Dodge truck transmission ?????

Before you give up on the tranny, go to this site and read up on a very common fix on these dodge trans, I think the site is called Nav!.com or something like that, basically the altenator on dodge truck does not have a regulator like the old trucks did, it gets its info and amout to charge from the pcm, if the altentor has been replaced most of the china units are diry, that is to say they put out lot of unfilter lt nosie, or has very many miles on it the signal is intteruppted from the alt to the pcm and causes the transmission to not shift correctly or not at all or to shift so slow its slipping under load and burning up the clutch discs and oil in the transmission, you should go to dodge trubo diesel register and search for NAV1 transmssion fix or something similar, its about a $20 fix with shipping. Even if you buy or rebuild anothtransmision you may repeat this problem again shortly unless this filter is installed, I used to buy and sell these trucks and worked as prts mnager for a dodge dealer, we used to see it all the time, some shops are smart to it some or not, my wife will tell you if fixed her truck but i caught it as soon as it started slipping and not shifting correctly, she has a 99 with auto, we were about to go thru the same thing you are, hopefully your trans is not smoked, is the oil black when you pull the dipstick?? How does it smell??? Burnt?? Any leaks anywhere, does it go in gear or all or it needs a tow now to be moved??? If you not heavy on the skinny pedal just go to a nationwide tranny rebuilder and get an updated trans and converter, were $1700 installed with new converter out the door last year when we looking at the national chains, remeber you can buy a $6000 trans and still have the same prob is that alt is dirty and interrupitng you pcm when it telling the trans when to shift. good luck
