Life after NV4500?
So, the NV4500 is no longer in production. Truck manufacturers who used
the NV4500 are changing over to some other tranny. I'd like to see six-speeds with the same bolt pattern as the NV4500 that could fit into a short wheel base Jeep. Does anyone know what the future holds? How about details on the new tranny specs? Thank you. -- Harold J.

Re: Life after NV4500?
It appears that ZF Transmissions has the four wheel aftermarket crowd in
mind. Per the ZF web site: "The new generation ZF-Ecolite "Universal" can be adapted to the individual conceptions and requirements of manufacturers. This modular design offers the possibility of adapting a flexible, tried-and-tested gear unit to customer-specific engines (specific or standard clutch bell housing) and different shift control variants. Advantage of the universal series: Also small series can be produced at satisfactory cost levels" ZF six-speed manual transmissions. The universal model "6 S 381 VO" and possibly the "6 S 351 VD") seem well suited in terms of size and weight. The "6 S 381 VO" has a 0.08 6th gear and a 5.40 1st gear while the "6 S 351 VD" has a 1.00 6th gear and a 6.70 1st gear. Installation length: 658mm / 25.9055" Weight: 63kg / 138.891 Lbs http://www01apps.zf.com/kst827/ZF_Pr...20381%20VO.jpg http://www.zf.com/defaultz.asp Someone, please make an adapter kit. -- Harold J.

Re: Life after NV4500?
Hi, Dennis.
Yes, the NV4500 is longer than a T5. You may check the URL in my sig for pics of the installation done on my '84 CJ-7. I recommend getting hold of the "New Venture 4500 Instruction Manual" from Advance Adapters. See... http://www.advanceadapters.com . There you will find that the "Over All Length" for the full bellhousing kit is 25.250" and that the "Over All Length" of the adapter plate kit is 26.125". Good luck.
