Hey guys, I'm got a question and maybe even a line of questions about a transmission that I want to put in my truck. I talked to a guy and he has a stick shift transmission that was in his diesel dodge that he might sell. I dont even know if they made a stick shift for a gas burner but I hope to get one. Will the diesel transmission work in my gasburner? Also what all is involved in putting a stick into the truck besides the clutch kit clutch pedal? Also what computer wise needs to be done?

 

The diesel one won't mount up different bell housing. You need the wiring harness, pedals, crankshaft sensor, different length driveshafts, and a few other things I'm in the process of doing this swap right now do a search there are a lot of threads about this. The computer will be alright but you'll have a cel for tranny codes

 

Ah, so no diesel trans will fit the housing. That kinda sucks but I guess that means they make a stick shift trans for the gas burners. On another note, my truck is a 2500 which can be diesel or gas. Does that even change the not fitting the bell housing problem?

 

No it doesn't change unless you also swap in the oil burner. If you have a 360 I'd go with a ldnv4500 basically bullet proof and will bolt right up to your v8

 

So nv4500 is good. Got it. So how much will all this cost for all the other parts that need to be put it?

 

Um without a parts truck a lot haha you'll have to source all the parts and new they aren't cheap if you can find a parts truck cheap like I did its not to bad because you can sell/scrap what you don't use

 

Lol I definitaly aint buying new lol. Im way too poor for that mess.
