Yes, you can put in a 6 speed. If considering it, try to find a 2001 or 2002 6 speed as they have the larger input shaft. Also something to consider is the New venture was bought out and 6 speed parts are scarce.

yeah me too. Bad thing is, it is not an overdrive unit. He has 4.10 gears and 37" tires. Max Speed is about 55
