The Dakota shifter is positioned further rearward. As for the torque rating, yes, Dakota is 40 lb/ft higher rating, but I have never seen a reason why. You would think by now someone would know and give reason but I have yet to see it. Dakota transmissions are easier to find, usually had V6's in front of them which should equal less wear and tear than the V8's. Sounds like a neat project.

I don't think you will find an NV3500 in a 2500 Ram, at least not with a V8 and maybe that is why. Perhaps all the 1500s are V6 and/or light duty short bed single cabs, I don't really know though, just speculation.

Yep, Guitar NV3500's are in the 2500's, with 360 Magnum. They are rare to come by; I've seen maybe 2 for sale in the last 3, 4 years or so in my area.
Makes no sense why they would have the 360 5 speed for the 2500 and not the 1500? Power isn't the issue, the NV3500 was used with 350's

Everyone I've ever seen was a NV4500 and those are rare. I got my NV4500 out of a 1997, 2500, 5.9 Magnum truck.
