DLDs came in the autos right? Oddly enough i have a DHD. Maybe a camper package or something?

 

i have no idea mine is a nv4500 5speed with the dld version, how hard would it be to split the case and sway input shafts

 

Damn That sucks
i dont' think that hp was the problem, i think it somethign called Torque. it can be a problem and breaks thinks. Sorry for the bad luck, i hope everything works out.

 

how hard would it be to split the case and sway input shafts

 

its not, you'll need to swap the input hub over to the one from the manual, my friend had his apart when he switched from a auto to manual

 

i know i have to swap input shafts but hub? so no special tools to split the case?

 

i dont believe so just some bolts holding it together, and yes the hubs if your using a Transfer case from an auto, i cant remeber it exactly but his truck wasnt staying locked in and when he would drive it, it would act like it was between 2wd and 4wd and start grinding and he ended up taking it to a trans shop and it was a detent ball and the hub in the transfer case

 

so do i just have to remove the hub and input shaft and throw my input shaft into it

 

i think that would work, i can talk to him tommorow and ask him exactly what they did

 

ya if you could find out exactly how to do it that would be great and would save me a 500 mile trip for the dld version and just step up to the dhd version
