This is why I hate NSG transmissions

[Rickyd]

Did you swap in a 6 speed? I didn't know they were ever offered behind a Duramax?

The big block and duramax were offered with the zf s6-650. Not many were made

Well Novak is 30 miles away from me, it’s an option, but the whole have to fix driveshaft length and shifter linkage for the atlas would drain me at this point…

6 transmission swaps would drain me.

I’d be down there with guns and ammo.

You have never seen my safe or my stacks of full ammo cans…

He ain't joking! Its a pile! Don't forget the physical damage, that driveshaft packs a punch!

Open up a can!

It’s ridiculous what you’re having to go through.

Gawd, that makes my lip hurt remembering that one moment in time

It’s ridiculous what you’re having choosing to go through.

Yeah, with all of the other mods, I was trying to just keep this simple and not have to mess with more.

Borescope shows plastic shift rail sliders… disappointing to see the didn’t update to the brass ones like the you tube videos show as the upgrade from hi impact. I pulled the plug before putting in $50 in redline, if this don’t work, I am going to go with an ax-15 probably. Just need to find the correct bell housing.

Odpa looks normal wear for 120k miles, wasn’t expecting a full length girdle, my first time looking at a newer 4.0

Last year, I contacted an NSG rebuilder and asked them that specific question. Of course, they do not. Idiots. Can't remember who it was though.

Painted the oil pan where it was pitted, shifter is on, super thin bead of super black.

Dude! Toss that rusty mess and put a new one on since its off anyway. Mine looked similar, since the pan gasket was leaking like a sieve, I had the pan replaced at the same time.

I would but I don’t want to take up anymore garage time if I don’t have to, the rear main seal is my priority before the transmission goes back in. I am so brain damaged from this, if it fails, I will be putting in a Novak ax-15

SM-420 , no excuses ! you know better than most , why be normal. A 70 year old SM-420 would likely be more sound than a fresh NSG-370. Let us know how the 71.62 - 1 crawl ratio works for you !

I would rather do a np435 than the 465,
