I have a 1991 Dodge Ram 50 automatic 2 wheel drive truck with the A500 type 42rh trany in it. It has problems shifting up after you start it (once it shifts threw all the gears it works fine) and the reverse band is bad, so i cant back up now. I am told i need to have it rebuilt and evewhere i check they want $1500 to $2000 to fix it and that is more then i paid for the truck! I am checking around in salvage yards trying to find a replacement trany and haveing a very difficult time because it seems that the dodge ram 50 is pretty rare in my area.
Can someone tell me what other vehicals i could be asking about that have this/compatible trany or if you have any other ideas?
Thanks!
