<< I just got my 97 dak back from the dealer with another new NV-3500
 5-speed trans. Anyway this time I sheered the main gear on the input
 shaft and the main gear on the counter shaft, both of these gears are
 always meshed except when in neutral. And the first time the trans went
 I simply broke the main input shaft. I know many of you have had great
 luck with this 5-speed behind the 5.2, but I havn't, I hope this next
 one changes that. In defense of the NV-3500 this new one has allot less
 gear whine in first & second. Not sure why the first one went at 11K,
 but I think the second one was a lemon trans because of excessive gear
 whine even when new. I run a stock 5.2 so I find it hard to think I
 should be shearing input shafts and main gears. Anyway this is just an
 update, it feels great to be driving the dak again....

Possible they rebuilt your first one and didnt replace some parts????
