Tech Note 1: 1995-2007 GM
QU10100 Bolts are the exact original equipment New Venture part for securing the input bearing retainer to all 1992-2005 Dodge and 1992-1995 GM NV4500 5 speed manual transmissions. 1996 and later General Motors NV4500 models use a concentric clutch slave cylinder that bolts to the input bearing retainer. Due to the height of the hex head, QU10100 can not be used on 1995-2007 GM transmissions. For 1995-2007 GM units, order QU10244U.

Tech Note 2: Product Note
New Venture recommends replacing the Input Retainer bolts with new bolts anytime they are removed.

Tech Note 4: Lubricants, Sealants, Threadlockers
Early production NV4500 Transmissions used an anaerobic sealant (QU90003) to seal between the main case and input bearing retainer, top cover, and rear housing. Mid-production units used anaerobic sealant just on the input retainer and RTV for everything else. Later production transmissions used black RTV Sealant (QU90006 or QU90005) for everything. Either type of sealant works fine (except the PTO covers ALWAYS should be sealed with RTV), but I prefer RTV for all components. Regardless of which sealant you use, make sure excess sealant does not block the lube access hole at the top of input retainer pilot that fits into the transmission case. Also, the threaded holes in the main case for the four retainer bolts and 12 PTO bolts are open ended, so you must use new bolts with factory applied threadlocker or apply Threadlocker (S24200) to your existing bolts to prevent oil seepage past the bolt threads. See my TM1003 NV4500 Shop Manual or V1003DVD NV4500 Overhaul Video for more information.
