Shop Now for the all new, cast iron case, NV5000 5 speed heavy-duty manual transmission which is rated for 500 hp AND 500 lb-ft of torque. CURE 5th Gear Loss FOREVER! The NV5000 is NOT subject to the infamous 5th gear failure problem that plagued the NV4500 due to repositioning the 5th gear to inside the main case between the input shaft and mainshaft 3rd gear!
The NV5000 is designed for compatibility with the 1994-2004 RAM NV4500 bellhousings and all related clutch components, making it versatile and easy to integrate into existing systems. It will also fit 1989-1993 W250 and W350 manual transmission 4x4s with the Cummins Diesel by adding QU5001 Bellhousing and QU90002 Pigtail to your order. For 1989-1993 trucks, the input bearing retainer nose will need to be slightly shortened to allow clearance for the clutch hub. The NV5000 has a 29-spline output shaft but will fit 1989-1993 trucks with our TK11541 23 spline to 29 coupler.
