The 5th gear on my 99 4X4 just went out again. Meloy Dodge said they fixed the problem #@$%! with new improved parts and this would not happen again. Does anyone know a good trany shop that can be trusted to fix my 5th gear that will last longer than 12 months and 20K miles.
 
I'm sorry to hear your woes and can't offer up a trans shop where you are. But what I can say is that most likely the Dodge dealer fixed it previously with stock parts. I would check out vendors that offer the fully splined shafts (rather than the stock shaft) like Home and the like. Hopefully you can find a shop that will use the aftermarket stuff that won't fail again. Best of luck to you.
 
Standard Transmission and Gear, TDR advertiser, in Ft. Worth, TX. Excellent work, great service, honest fair customer service, and fair prices. They rebuilt the NV-5600 in my '01 in early '06.
 
I realy need to find a shop in the Albq area. This is our only vehicle to get back and forth to work and TX is a long ways to go in 4th gear. Who makes a good after market replacement part if the Dodge part is junk?
 
You could have a local shop remove it then ship it to Standard. You could call and ask if they'll send you a rebuilt unit with a core deposit and ship yours to them.

Standard does quality work. You could end up with a disappointing repair by a local shop instead of a little transportation, shipping, and delay to get the best.
 
I strongly second HBarlow's comment. I just had my clutch replaced on Thursday. The place that I took it to had the trans out and back in less than a day. My point is that if you get one shipped to you and swapped out, it wouldn't be much more time than pulling yours out, waiting for a rebuild and reinstalling.
