If you are going to do the Manual to Auto swap, why not drop in the AISIN? I hear that thing is supposed to be a fair bit stouter, and its a lot heavier. I'd have to compare specs on them, but I think thats what I would do.

 

I wouldnt trade my manual unless it was for the six speed i love being able to control my powerband through gear selection i have the nv4500 5 spd no complaints here

i believe he has a built tranny out of his 06 he wrecked

 

He traded trucks

 

I'd just get a new truck but i think bout all of em have the electronic shift transfer cases I like a manual myself less wiring to fail
