i have 101k miles on my 98 5.9 ram gasser with no problems on the tranny or plenum gasket. still runs great. tranny shifts nice and firm as new. i do tow alot - often as much to 4k lbs. and i drive it hard. for once i get lucky. i think i need to replace the water pump though which would be the first part on the engine to be replaced. lee on thu 17 jul 2003 005338 gmt denny wddodge@woh.rr.com wrote on wed 16 jul 2003 191242 -0500 dale simpson daleandlaura@charter.net wrote i just bought a 98 dakota and when my neighbor saw ithe is also a dodge owner he said i hope you have a spare couple of grand because you are gonna have to replace that tranny. is there even a grain of truth to his assertion that all dodge trucks have substandard transmissions i looked the truck up on some kind of consumer reporting website before i bought it and they said that it was a pretty much trouble free truck. please tell me that my tranny isnt destined to fail! the only other dodge i have ever owned is a 84 ram charger and i loved that truck with that big ole 360 and extra large tires wish i still had it but the mileage sucked and i travel a lot for work. any input from this group of dodge lovers will be greatly appreciated! dale simpson three in mine while under warranty. the forth was a rebuild by aamco for about $2500. the fifth was on aamco as i bought the lifetime waranty. over 100000 miles on this one. beekeep and my 95 has 87000 on it plowing snow working around the farm everyday transportation and has not yet been farther apart than changing the fluid and filter. denny does the engine still have the original plenum gasket too beekeep .
