question
Does anyone know where the ID number on a torque converter is located?
also what does 63A, 51A, 59A, 61A, 69A, 65A,52A, 62A, 70A, 74A E, F, M, O, U mean?
Because I need a new torque converter and I want to make sure I get the right one, there isn't any ID number anywhere but the number zero and that's it.

Why do you need a new torque converter?
If your torque converter has failed, it is very likely that you also have a damaged transmission. They should always be changed as a unit.
As to codes, I don't think you will find any markings on the torque converter. It must be for the specific transmission type, which can be identified by code on the door post sticker. That is assuming your truck remains as built by the factory. If you are playing guessing games with what a previous owner may have done, well, good luck!

The reason why I think its the converter is because when I put it in gear, I have to give it a little more gas to make the truck move

That could be simply low fluid level.
It would be pretty helpful to have some detail, such as confirmation of what you are running via the door sticker and transmission code. I'm assuming E4OD.

If the lockup clutch inside the torque converter is starting to malfunction, you experience shuddering at around 30-45 mph. it is very noticeable and typically feels like you're driving over a rough road with small bumps. If you are experiencing high RPM's and erratic shifting,it's most likely trans clutch
