No... You cannot get the 5.9L AND the 5 speed in any 94+ 1500 ram (NV3500
not rated for torque of 5.9L)... same reason you can''t get a 5 speed in the
Dak R/T... I'll guess that if they offer the 5.9L in a '00 4x4, you won't be
able to get a 5 speed, either.

You can get the 5.9L and a 5 speed in a 2500 or 3500 (they use the NV4500)
