... any of you ever do one? Any special jigs or speciality tools needed? My buddy with the trans shop wants to try to rebuild my 5600, just wants to know what we are up against first hand.
I had a sync. go out of 5th gear at 5000 miles... just a defect i guess... but I watched the dealership take the transmission out and appart. It is heavy! Special tool needed to remove the gears from the case. The tech said the first nv5600 he had taken appart(mine was the second besides his dodge schooling) he didn't have the tool. ***** to get out and re-install without the tool... wasn't fun with it.
Get the tool and shop manual. Don't do it by yourself.
Subscribe to www.alldatadiy.com under your truck and you will get step by step shop manual instructions with pictures on the overhaul, including tools needed, and removal from truck. We just completed rebuilding one, and found it straight forward to build, heavy to handle, and that hard parts are scarce.
The shop I am having mine rebuilt at is telling me he put in all new synchro's... But, of course, he rebuilt it, instqalled it, and 4th gear wouldn't catch the synchro before it caught the gears...
