2WD INSTALLATIONS:
The speedometer components of the Getrag transmission will directly interchange into the new Dodge Heavy Duty 2WD
transmission. The output yoke for the 31 spline transmission shaft of the NV4500 will need to be changed to a Spicer yoke,
P/N 3-3-4391X. The driveline will also require shortening of approximately 6 inches.
Since the crossmember mounting location on the Getrag is different then on NV4500, your stock crossmember will need to
be modified. The front side of the stock Getrag crossmember will to be modified to clear the NV4500 tailhousing (photo
below). By modifying the stock crossmember and using a stock Chevy Turbo 350/400 automatic rubber support, you can
retain your crossmember in the stock location. The Chevy mount sets into the Dodge crossmember channel. You will also
need to drill two holes in the Dodge crossmember for the bolts to fit the Chevy rubber mount.
