SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS:
This adapter kit is designed for exclusive use with either 2WD or 4WD New Venture 4500 transmission. The output shaft
must be removed and the new shaft installed. The original GM harmonic balancer or 2WD speedometer drive will need
to be removed and replaced with the new nut provided in the adapter kit. We have included a new adapter housing that
has the Dana 300 pattern and a seal that will fit the input sleeve of the Dana 300 transfer case. The main shaft of the
transmission should be installed by a qualified transmission repair shop and it does require some special tools for proper
installation.
When assembling the transmission to the transfer case, DO NOT FORCE the two gear boxes together. If the shaft is too
long, there is the possibility of pre-loading the transmission bearings for premature failure. Take the extra time to make
sure that the shafts do not bottom out internally. If there is an interference problem, it may be necessary to grind the end
of the new output shaft to obtain the proper length. We have seen some variations as to the depth of the 23 tooth internal
spline used in the Dana 300 coupler shaft.
The overall length of this transmission and adapter is 18-3/4". This transmission adapter can be used with both new V8
installations and 6 cylinder engines. This transmission assembly with the new bellhousing will have an overall length of
approximately 25" from back of engine to the front of the transfer case. This length is the shortest possible for the NV4500
installations.
