Looky What I Found

You can get NV4500's for like $1000 cash and carry...



...

Really, where?

Really, where?

Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market is where I find most of my used stuf (injectors, rails, Cp3's, wheels, etc,etc,etc)



Just checked and found a few 4500's for $1200 and 5600's for a low of around $2600



I have been keeping an eye out for the cost because I want to put one in my CJ7

Anything over $3000 I'd consider just going to a built auto my self... . I've road in a few and drove one (georend). It was rather nice... .



Then again, stock auto transmission vs stock manual transmission, Manual all the way, no way you'll convince me other wise.

I guess I never posted specifically that I got the rebuilt installed about a month ago. Never again. Too much $$ for something that ain't perfect. Yes I'm being fussy, but damn for $3000 it better be perfect.

I've got another thread here somewhere that I'm too tired to find. If I get it I'll post a link here so you can see what i've gone thru with the new transmission.

Midwest lists NV4500's for around $1200 iirc. I thought about a swap but I would without a doubt trade trucks first.

Follow some of my posts on my experiences. try 2 trannys at basically 3500 a pop and I have one in the truck that does not shift right at all , and one on the garage floor that does not go into 3rd or 4th. Not to mention all my downtime that no one seemed to give a ***** about and my running back and forth to utah numerous times!!! #@$%!

Update: I called the dealer this morning to find out about a new radiator for my '07 if I needed one, which I don't. Anyway, the parts guy says, "I've got some news on your old truck. It's now a 5 speed. "

A guy came in to take it for a test drive and there was no 6th gear. No idea what happened yet. About a week or two ago one of the brake calipers locked up for the dealer as well.

I've been missing that truck lately. Not so much anymore.

Best part is, if I still owned that truck the transmission is still under warranty. Non transferrable. hehehehehee

My guess is you found them in the same place you keep that chewed up tape measure. Just a guess
