Just want to know if i can get away with mating a 42RE trans from a 4.0L jeep to a 5.2L from a ram van that probably had a 46re. Will the 42's bell housing even allow for it? It would only be temporary if at all possible, but i have a spare 42re and would like to use it to test the 5.2 im swapping into a 1990 Dakota. I do know the 5.2 comes with a 44re, and that the 42 and 44 are almost identical, save a couple clutch discs. Any input welcome. Thanks for looking!!! :D
