I got to test drive a new Dodge 3500 with the Getrag 6 speed. Guess Dodge gave up on the 5600, guess I have too, I'm on #3 in 110k miles.
Reverse is where it should be, next to 2nd. Shifts are crisp and can be made quickly, no grinds (!)
NO DRIVELINE CLUNK. PERIOD. NONE.
The locking differential actually works. No kidding. Really. It works... Driver wheels on pavement, passenger wheels in the dirt, floor it and leave burn out marks on the pavement. Much improved over my (un)Limited Slip Dana 80.
Given the way Dodge is currently handling warranty work guess I'll stay with 98 12 Valves, no confidence in DC at all.
