* 3-speed automatic (727 Torqueflite): This was a very common and durable transmission for that era.
* 4-speed automatic (46RH/46RE): This is also a possibility, though perhaps less likely than the 727. The difference between the RH and RE is in internal components and the RE is electronically controlled.
* 5-speed manual (Getrag): A manual transmission was an option, but less common than the automatics.
To know for certain which transmission is in *your* specific truck, you need to:
* Check the VIN: The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) will contain information about the vehicle's specifications, including the transmission. You can decode the VIN using online tools or a dealer.
* Look at the transmission itself: The transmission case usually has a tag or markings that identify the type. You'll need to get under the truck to see this. Be careful and use jack stands if you do this.
* Check the owner's manual (if you have it): The owner's manual will list the specifications for your specific truck.
Without more information about your specific 1992 Dodge Ram 1500, it's impossible to say definitively which transmission it has.
