iT'S FINALLY TIME TO SWAP THE NV4500 IN THE 94 K3500
Where can I find Detailed removal and installation instructions for the NV4500 and transfer case?
What will I need for gasket or whatever?
The last transmission I changed was a Getrag 5 speed in the 89 in year 2000
And I am definately not quite up to speed yet. Any and all advice will ge greatly appreciated.
I was planning to park on top 2 2x12's to get the truck a little higher.
Is this enouigh or should I go higher yet?
I have heavy duty jack stands but feel safer with all 4 wheels on wood.
Not sure on GM, but I know the DODGE NV4500 specs out to use ONLY anerobic sealer and do NOT use RTV under ANY circumstances. RTV gives to high of a filler gap when it sits up, and can cause tolerance issues. As well as the extra gap from TRV can allow teh case halves to flex more whereas anerobic sealers will squish down to less than a thousandths of an inch

Is this enough or should I go higher yet?

I do not have a good trans jack. I have a 2 ton floor jack and one of those cheesy trans jack adapters.
Do you think that will be sufficient?
