  1. I see. well that should not be a to difficult swap. probually the same as the NV5600. I would more then likely do a NV4500 swap just cause there a ton of parts for em. Thats IF I even do the swap..
  2. Ohh. I did not know they changed from the NV5600. Should of read up on that better..
  3. Whats an AE g56 out of.. Never heard of that before.
  4. I would not mind doing that other then the fact that my auto wont hold any more HP. so gotta get it beefed up or swaped out with a standard and then crank the HP up.
  5. ok thanks. now I know what im gonna need ahead of time..
  6. Ok.. So i am gonna flush the system and replace the t-stat that outta fix my problem. How much anti freeze does the whole system hold?? . Thanks you guys been alot of help:thumb1:
  7. I cant do with out the 4x4. So thats not gonna work. I may just beef up the auto with better TC. that outta hold the HP that I am wantin which is not much. Got 300 hp now and I want an edge comp or quad adrenaline. Something of that nature..
  8. How much did the new thermostate cost you? --- Update to the previous post... I did clean the radiator and the intercooler.
  9. Last time I was haulin a trailer I was pullin a 13k lb dump trailer and with my chip on high I could not keep the truck coolant very cool.was about ready to overheat. It runs about 190 all the time when not pullin and the fan runs alot.. I dont think it should run that hot when just drivin around. Maby i need to replace the thermostate. I cleaned the radiator and intercooler but it still run to hot I think. Is this normal to run that hot or am i just . Thanks
  10. Uhhh. I had it tested a while back so Im gonna have to hunt for it. Ill post when I can.. I gonna go look for it now.
  11. any ideas on cost wise to do the swap??
  12. I did have the oil tested and everything came out normal. No signs of ware..
  13. all I run is a 65 hp chip. I just want to be able to use 100% of that power. I heard an better air intake will allow you to have more useable power and better air flow.
  14. I wanting to make my own air intake since the aftermarket ones are SO expensive. So anyone made there own and would like to share your idea lets see it. I am Looking for ideas.
  15. Ok. Thanks alot. Guess I wont be getting them then. Cause they came off an 05 3/4 ton. Thanks again.
  16. I was wondering if anyone out there knows if the 8 lug wheel dodge uses is the same as chevy and ford. I found a nice set of ford superduty wheels and tires for sale for pretty cheap and would like to get them. UNLESS they dont fit.
  17. I never saw it coal black. I ran 7,500 miles on it and it had the greenish tinge. I just changed it. OK so the oil not turning black right away is normall. Thanks good to hear. and you think the green tinge is normall to. Maby I am getting to worked up about it. Thanks for the replys
  18. I wasnt comparing the oil between the two motors we were just looking at the differences Cummins made between those years but that was something I did not know though so thanks for pointing that out. Any idea on the green tinge. Is that common for these motors cause I really did not pay much attention to oil color on previous oil changes
  19. Ok. Me and my dad were compairing the 24v to the common rail 24v side my side. I went and pulled the dipstick for the oil and looked at it and my dad noticed that the oil on the stick has a tinge of green in it. So we were both thinking that anti-freeze was getting into the oil some how. But here is the thing. Oil level is not raising any, oil is does not look a milky color to it, And it does not smell like anti-freeze is in there. So I thought maby there is some diesel getting in there but it does not smell like it is. Plus I am still getting same fuel milage I always have. My anti-freeze looks clean and green no signs of oil in it. Truck runs normal. So this weekend I changed the oil cause it was due for it and put Shell rotella T in it as well as Lucas oil stableizer. Drove it about 200+ miles and checked the oil and its still clean as can be. Oil pressure from the cab gauge runs normally. My dad told me that the oil should of been black by the time I traveled 200 some miles. This is getting me a bit worried about something so if any one has any idea or questions to ask me to help me figure out what going on that would be great. There is no check engine light on. Thanks
  20. If the "7" in 47re stands for the max torque it will handle then with the truck in stock form the tranny should be good then cause my truck only puts out like 460 Ft Lb of torque peak torque. Why would these tranny's not handle that. Maby i misunderstand something here so correct me if i am wrong. I think I got something mixed up here. ---------- Post added at 07:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:09 PM ---------- Or is it the tranny will handle the torque but the torque converter wont. I am not sure. can someone clear that up for me.
  21. Thanks for all the help guys I recharged my a/c and now it blow nice cold air. Thanks for the help/:thumb1:
  22. I need to recharge my a/c also and need to see a picture of exactly where you hook up the recharge kit. This is my first time doing this. Does it take very long to do it?
  23. How much torque can the nv4500 or nv5600 hold without mods done to the tranny?
  24. the nv4500 is a 5 speed and the nv5600 is a 6 speed right?
  25. What is the better tranny the nv4500 or the nv5600? Which would be easyier to install:shrug:
