Installation & Application Notes:NV4500 Replacing an Automatic Transmission:The package above forms a system is designed to replace an automatic transmission Behind a Cummins Diesel. All of the major components needed are supplied for this conversion, with the exception of the clutch pedal assembly. Clutch Pedal assemblyThese parts are available from the dealer, or if you prefer, a junkyard. You will want the stock bracket, pedals and linkage components from your same-year stick-equipped vehicle. The master cylinder we supply will fit this assembly. If desired for convenience, we can attempt to source these parts from a dealer, however most likely at a higher cost than you can buy them direct from the dealer. 4WD applicationsDodge Cummins Trucks with auto transmissions: were supplied with a 23 spline input on the transfer case. All of the Factory Dodge Cummins 5 speed applications were 29 spline into the transfer case. The 29 spline shaft is stronger than the 23 spl shaft, and the auto trans with the torque converter does tend to cushion the output of the trans from the heavy torque pulses generated by the Cummins diesel
Bulletin: The 23 spl shaft does not reliably live behind the Cummins without the cushioning effect of the torque converter. To perform this conversion properly, it is necessary to convert your Tcase to 29 spl NP241 or 271: All we would need to change is the input gear, $195 NP205: There are several parts. You will also need to machine your stock t-case bearing retainer housing to fit over the new, larger bearing and to MAKE the larger seal fit and work. You will also need to machine the NP205 main case to accept the larger bearing.
2WDThe (Brand New) NV4500 are standardly supplied with a Dodge style slip yoke, and provisions for a choice of mechanical or electrical speedo, as needed for your application. Drive Shaft(s)You may need to have your driveshaft(s) modified for length. A local driveshaft shop is usually available to do this. If necessary, we can do it, however it is better to install the unit FIRST, then measure and build/modify driveshafts CrossmemberWe supply an adapter that allows you to use the trans mount from your auto trans and bolt it to the NV4500. A bit of massaging, but works pretty good. Stick ShiftIt will be necessary to cut a hole in your floorboard to accommodate the stick shift. A simple boot can be mounted over the hole to dress this.
