So I have a 2005 1500 Daytona 5.7 4x4. I really want to do a manual swap but I don't know the best way to do it. Nv4500 or g-56 or what other ones there are. Any advice will be much appriciated, I am just trying to figure out what is needed and how feasible it would be for me.

I really want to bang gears in my truck over the auto but from what I've gathered if your doing it from a performance perspective both the trans you listed are no good for what you want.

Are they geared wrong or are they just sloppy. Do you know of any good transmissions that can have the transfer case and 4wd

I just finished a manual swap in a 2x4, when researching this swap I looked all over the internet/forums and haven't seen a 4x4 manual swap, so I think it hasn't been done before.

Good luck!

I was just going to give him the link to your build. I didn't realize his was 4x4 though. BTW, did you get that thing sorted out?

Not yet, thinking I have the wrong clutch master for the ***** I'm using.

You'll get it. You've done a damn good job on this. It's something to be proud of for sure.
