Wrong torque converter?

Asked by Joey Nov 04, 2018 at 07:45 AM about the 1998 Dodge RAM 1500 Laramie SLT RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 98 ram 1500 2wd magnum
w/5.9 previous owner put in a
transmission and torque converter
out of a 2001 (I'm not sure of make
and model) but engine ran fine until I
went to drive it then it went to shit
and after I stopped and take off again  
it felt like it was in drive not shifting
back to first. Does anyone have a clue
what's going on.
