I have a 99 dodge ram 1500 with the 5.9L V8 in it I believe that the overdrive clutch is goin out because it has towed some heavy trailers and the transmission is starting to grind upon acceleration. I was wondering if it is possible to put a heavier transmission from the 99 dodges such as a 3/4 ton or a 1 ton's transmission on it if so where would be the cheapest place to get a used one, and when replacing the transmission would I have to pull the motor on this specific model
