Auto Tranny

Hi folks,
I'm a new kid on the block in this part of FTE. I recently purchased a 98 Ranger 4x4 Auto V6 4.0 with 99K on the clock My question is how do I identify which tranny I am running? Breaking down the VIN doesn't tell me squat.

I can't seem to find any sound info on line and I figured that you guys are at least as smart as the the troops on the PSD Forum and they are awesome.
(I hope that came out as a compliment)
As always any help will be greatly appreciated.
Rog

There should be a door tag with the trans indicated on it. Post here and I'll look it up. Might be a 44R4E or a 55R5E.

If it hasn't been messed with, as I remember the 98 4.0L 4X4 auto, came with the 5R55E tranny.

Just count the up shifts with the OD on.
