    whats the best standard transmission

    Found a nv4500 2 wheel drive out of a 2000 for 100.00 with low miles is that worth getting?

    It would cost more than getting one local by the time it was shipped.

    whats the best standard transmission

    Any one I can find there are two local yards that if they have them all I have to do is pull them and that's the price. Once every year they both have a sale for transmissions and transfer cases 75.00 a piece. They also have a sale 50 percent of everything in the yard. And they have one all you...

    whats the best standard transmission

    Ok I was just wanting to make Shure I got it all set up and done right. I had a 91 dodge with a nv4500 conversion that was stock and I had the 5th gear issue and it tore up the main shaft and sheared off the transfer case bolts. That was only 160hp with a stock 1997 nv4500. It went on the...

    whats the best standard transmission

    Ok so what's the bolt pattern difference. I've been reading about the different np205 transfer cases. Is one a six bolt and one an 8 bolt? And can't I just get a adapter With the right pattern. So I don't have to have it machined. I don't want to potentially weaken the adapter. I plan on...

    whats the best standard transmission

    I wonder if I can put a dodge input shaft from a dodge np205 in a ford np205 to get the coarser stronger teeth. I already have a dodge np 205 I could take the part off of. Am I worrying to much? Or is that not even possible?

    So at this point sounds like ill be doing a nv4500 with a dodge input shaft mated to a ford np 205 transfer case.

    whats the best standard transmission

    From what I read im more leaning toward the nv4500. According to what I read on wikapedia and 4bt swap the ford version has problems. 1 has an oil cooler 2 has oil pump 3 has 2 and 3the shift problem pops out of those gears 4 shifts hard like stirring asphalt in a bucket 5 shift forks bend 6...

    whats the best standard transmission

    Thanks for the info ill be going to get one now. Will that mate up to the zf6 though?

    whats the best standard transmission

    Does the ford zf6 mate up to a good gear driven transfer case something like the np205. Except that goes off the drivers side instead of the passenger side.

    whats the best standard transmission

    In all reality. I will probably not go any higher than 300 hp if I go that far. This is not a pipe dream. I have the vehicle and the motor already the drive train has all heavy duty hubs and axle shafts all I need is a transmission and the components to make it work. I plan on getting this done...

    whats the best standard transmission

    Im open to any suggestions if you can show me articles or stats and most importantly experience that proves that it will last and is rugged.

    whats the best standard transmission

    I read some articles on line that since they have started using the g56 there have been many problems and isn't it also aluminum? I've seen many broken ones for sale on line.
  18. jjramrod

    whats the best standard transmission

    To oddave I thought the g56 could not handle the power at least from what I read. Whichever transmission I choose it will be custom built to handle more hp and torque than it will have. To doghead I don't plan to turn the motor up to 800 hp but its nice to know its possible. I will be turning...

    That's more like it. That's the type of informative answer I've been looking for I hope to get more answers like this. Thanks

    whats the best standard transmission

    Drgreg I am actually valuing your opinion of using a nv 4500. Just not your opinion of a 3.9 belonging in a half ton truck especially considering its it a truck bigger than a f600 dump truck. I am leaning toward a custom built nv 4500 . only because it has been around longer than the six...
