I drive a 2003 2500 Cummins and was wondering how or if there is an easy way to identify what transmission I have. I checked the build sheet on my truck and I know when it left the factory it had a 47re. However, I bought the truck used and I know that 40k ago a new transmission was put in. Is there an easy way to tell what kind of transmission I have without tearing into it? I know on the outside both transmission look very similar but there has to be a way.

I would assume the same trans went back in. I work in a shop and we are always careful to replace with the same model. That being said, I'm sure there is an id tag somewhere on it.

There is a ID tag on the driver side just above the pan about midway on the trans.
