Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) NV4500 brain picking

[GMincher]

Does anyone have good knowledge of interchangable parts? I have a NV4500 for a 2wd V8 application. Anybody know how much of this is interchangable with my 4wd diesel. Obviously the input shaft is different, as is the tailshaft and rear housing. But, is everything in between the same? I don't have any problems with my trans. yet, I just wondered if I should sell this 2wd unit or hang onto it for good spare parts! Thanks in advance, Greg

I'd sell. Keep the money and if you ever need to do anything to your 4500 you probably want new anyhow.

Try here for some info. It may not be too much help for what you need to know though.

""Two versions of the NV4500 are used in 1994+ models. A standard duty version is used for 5. 2L and 5. 9L applications and a heavy duty version is used for V10, and Cummins diesel engines. The main differences between the two versions concern the larger input and output shafts used in the heavy duty version. ""
