Kris,
I work for dc in the Jeep/Truck design office and frequent the boys at
the Trans lab and consistently bug the guys at JTE about these
tranny's. The NV3500 is one of the best manuals around. Chevy uses
them, we use them. Ive got over 120k on mine with one rebuild at 118k.
Many highway miles but mannnny street racin and quarter track runs.
Wouldnt ever trade that puppy for an auto and am reluctant to ever swop
it for a 6 speed. Id like for someone to prove me wrong on the strength
of my trans........without driving my truck!!=0)
