You don't necessarily need to take the transmission apart to check its health. There are several diagnostic programs available to the Ram technician, such has checking for clutch indexes, that can evaluate the transmission's condition.
As one other poster indicated, the loss of fluid by itself is usually non-destructive. Clutches can't burn if they're not engaged, and chances are there was enough pressure drop that nothing was working.
