Ohh yah, it eats away the paper material on the synchros. Trans been rebuilt and working on trying to get it back in at this moment. Was almost a walk in the park experience but the getting it back in part sucks. Parked on a hill, all the wheels to my floor jack are flattened, yeah the metal wheels are worn. But it wasn’t rebuilt because of the little gl5 fluid, it was because of snapping the output shaft that goes into the t-case. When I changed the fluid it was burnt badly from adding that little bit of gl5.
This transmission doesn’t have one. But no usually you’ll have to order those separately. Or find a shifter bushing on Amazon for you transmission. It’s like I need that thicker piece that slides on the shifter shaft there like the OEM one. It’s tight except for 5th gear it’s just not right yah know? See me at the end of the video playing with 5th gear all confused

I always loved the short throw shifters. I been running them in all my manual transmissions. I basically can’t have a manual transmission without one.. I added one to an 07 Dakota also.
thanks fer making a video ive been dying to see what this looks like hands-on
Buddy you screwed that Transmission.....GL-4 Only fo the NV4500 , anything else Will definitely destroy the NV4500 Transmissions.
Held up 2yrs just fine. But fluid was changed… last winter I snapped the output shaft clean off.
A little bit of the wrong fluid will not ruin a trans, it’s a manual not an auto
Yooper tube, I'm dying bud.
That gl-5 will corrode the synchros.

Just got mine in and it does have wiggle room like yours in every gear except 3rd and 4th.
Blew out my ear drums
You’re old timer how did you hear anything lolz
@@SmudgyContentSony Ear buds‼️
You install it without the isolation grommet block? Hmm I feel like that's gonna cause some vibrations in the shifter! How has it worked out so far?
Oem one doesn’t have one ether
@@SmudgyContent Really! Hmm I wonder where the one on my NV4500 came from then. Or do certain manufacturers perhaps put them on I wonder
@@Eric2300jeep the ole farmer I bought this truck from has pull this transmission ontop of me having stuff done to it at local shop.
@@Eric2300jeep I believe there are several generations of shift towers used on these
Did they send a new plastic bushing that interfaces between the tip of the shifter and the shifter dogs?

How much did that cost
They’re built to order. I wanna say I paid $400 for it. that’s including for a bushing and sound damper that I didn’t need.
@@SmudgyContent what's the company called?

Hey man how do you like the shifter. I just ordered one
I always loved the short throw shifters. I been running them in all my manual transmissions. I basically can’t have a manual transmission without one..

Would this work on a NBS (2003) Silverado with a nv4500 from factory
Core shifters makes them per request. It is a bit pricey. $400 for these kits.
