As title says. I'm wanting to swap one into my latest truck project.
80s D 250. I want a stick, I want OD and I want to be able to pull a decent size camper (decent enough size to need the capacity of the 3/4 ton over a 1/2 ton) any other stick tranny that can bolt to a 360 magnum that will do these things?
How about a getrag? I've never heard of a getrag behind the gas engine.
I'm wanting to know about interchangeability, difference between Chevy and Dodge version, are there different shifter locations relative to the case, and compared to say an NP 435, things like that.
I have a Bell housing and flywheel coming from a 99 gas 360 that had this trans.
My son has a lead on a trans but it came out of a (ugh) Chevy.
I know there are certain years of the Chevy version that would bolt on a Dodge bell housing, and some that won't. What years or series of truck or anything else to dictate this
I've heard of a problem with 5th gear retainer nut walking off the shaft, but that it's "just a dodge trans version" issue that the Chevy version doesn't have this problem? What's the difference between the transmission that makes this so?
I've also heard that the gas version doesn't have this issue as much as the diesel ones?
I do have a dodge input shaft here for one of those transmissions and supposedly another coming with that bell housing.
That bell housing and flywheel is mine, just gotta go pick it up found on marketplace 2 States away it happens to have been listed in the same town a buddy of mile lives in.... Had him go get it for me ..
