KO'ed my 2000, family getting bigger (bought an F350 460gasser crew cab), dumped way too much money into the motor/trans, refuse to be with out a cummins, now have some questions.

1) Does the 47RE PCM need to talk to the 241 T case for speed input/output. Going to use the BW1356 Tcase thats in the 90 F350 do to cable driven speedo.

2) Is the Over Drive switch a simple 12v/ground switch. The ford E40D has a push button disengage on the dash, wanting to use that button for th RE.

3) Does any one have a wiring diagram/pin out for the 2000 47RE.


Thanks!

Did you find anything out on this? I'm wanting to do a VP44 swap into a '79 highboy and use a 2wd NV5600 with the divorced transfer from the ford..

I did, ford e40d OD switch will work as long as you're using dodge PCM. T case does not need to talk to the PCM. I would assume as long as you're running a manual trans PCM from the dodge/cummins you will be good. The only speed reference is for the TCM if you're running an auto trans.
