Typically that pattern is the g56. Take a pic and show it to us just to be safe.

the g56 is all the way to the left and down, dodge went to that in 06...have you checked with a valair clutch? i just got my valair dd istalled and love it....and was bout 1200 cheaper than the sb, and made me love it that much more.

yep i told him to check the door, hes gonna let me know. he tows with the truck, no drag racin or sled pullin. i was thinkin somethin like a street dual disc, 3850ish plate load n possibly upgraded hydros. does the g56 need an upgraded input shaft to handle a DD clutch?

I would get either a SB or Valair DD Street Clutch.

my 05 has a NV5600 in it and the build date is early 05. the 5600's reverse is all the way to the right and up.
