not sure what a nv5600 with
attached tcase weighs, but
its a behemoth !

 

[poptarts]

That' was under ur truck?!?

 

[elephantrider]

yeah believe it or not.
cant believe there is
that much room under
it.. LOL

 

[TexasCummins]

Lucky! I want a 5600 to swap into my 350 but I can't afford $3,500 for rebuilt

 

[elephantrider]

it would be a sweet tranny in a 1st gen
for sure. i bet the extra gear would fit
the narrow power band of the 12v like
a glove.

A real man would have bench pressed that back in place without a jack or lift.



























And promptly been crushed as soon as he tried. :rof

I've done all 8 of mine in the dark without ratchet straps :blues:

 

[4x4 Cody]

Congrats Jason, Oh, I can bolt my cross member in now with out using a come-along or a hammer. It just slides right in.. I guess if you do it enough it gets the point lol.

Beware of the single disc.... ITS A GRABBY LIL BEAST!!

the first time I had an actual tranny jack, made a huge difference. The second time I stabbed the beast of a NV5600 by myself, thats the only way I could keep it balanced on the floorjack was with straps lol.

 

[elephantrider]

i wouldnt want to even try to tackle
that thing in my driveway. the tools
that tdp used to get it out of the
truck so quick were way past my own
tool ownership it wasnt funny.
