What would be a reasonable price for a NV4500 tranny. I would like to swap one in my Blazer but not willing to spend $2000 for a new one. And a junk yard told me about $1000 is that right?Or are they trying to bend me over?
I don't know about prices but I just started looking into the same thing. Does anyone here know anything about the NV4500? Is it the same legnth as the 700r4. What transfer cases will work with it?
I know alittle about the tranny. I would like it over the 465 because of it's overdrive. I doubt it's the same length as the 700r4. Any T-case will work with it as long as the splines are the same.
I paid $1100 for mine about 4 years ago from a shop that rebuilds them. I verified new bearings etc. These trannies are expensive but they give you a great first and fifth gear. It will also hold up in a 6200lb vehicle and a big block when your left foot "slips" off of the clutch"
The shop was in Denver and I believe it was Denver transmissions. I'm not sure of this as it was four years and I suffer from CRS (Can't remember sh**). Oh, yeah, it also had the 6.34 first. I got pretty lucky with this from what I recall as I also did not have a core. Good hunting.
Since I live in Colorado and Denver is only an hour away I think I will defenately check it out, Thanx. It had the 6.43 first, so you got the 92'-94' tranny. Does it have that bad of a gap between 2nd(3.44) and 3rd(1.71) as they say? Do you have to rap out 2nd pretty good to catch 3rd? Or is it not that big of deal.
