getrag question
« on: November 16, 2012, 10:25:39 pm »
so im considering swapping to a manual trans in my truck. i've got a th400 and 208 tcase right now. i know that the 2wd trans on both use the same driveline yoke. so my question is can i swap a get rag 5 speed in with the existing tcase? i dont do alot of hard wheeling,mostly just around town driving so id really like a 5 speed rather than the granny 4 speed

The only 5 speed that will easily swap (as in parts are available easily) is the NV4500.

All the trucks with the NV3500 trans has the drop on the opposite side.  If you use a 208 on the back is should bolt where the 241 was...
