You'll have to be more specific on the trannies. Depending on engine
and model year, '98-'01 could have any one of 4 transmissions.

4.7L - (5)45RFE, same as is in your Ram.
5.2L - 44RH?
5.9L - 46RH
3.6L - 42RH?

BTW, there was a TCM flash for the HEMIs quite a while ago that did a
lot as far as firming up the shifting. Have the dealer check it out.
