nv3550

My BellHousing Cracked. I Live in the Lehigh Valley Area of PA. I have a nv3550 transmission.

So, I have a 2003 4.0 manual transmission 5 speed. To my knowledge that is the NV3550. Now that it’s colder (like 30’s and 40’s) at home, it’s really quite stiff getting into gear and of course hitting second is quite the task. I switched to Red Line 50205 MTL 75W80 GL-4 recently to see if that...

Hi... New member hear I just replaced my transmission for the second time because the first ome 2nd gear syncro went bad (luckily under warranty). I decided to replace clutch too and used the luk kit. After getting everything back together there is a VERY loud whining /gear noise when in 1st...

I have found out that I need a new transmission in my '97 TJ and was wonder if I can go from the 5 speed NV3550 to the 6 speed NSG370? Is it possible, and what are the cost differences?

Hello everyone new to forums here, just recently picked up a 2003 rubicon from A close friend, synchros were going out in the trans so bought a built Refurbished trans from a company called sp performance, installed trans last night and everything works but 5th gear, if you step on gas in 5th it...

Oh, look, another LS conversion in a TJ. :rolleyes: Yes, this thread is about another conversion, but I hope to alleviate and answer alot of confusion and offer some answers or advice. The goal with "Sarah" is to have a capable DD that can be very capable on the weekend. This project has...

I recently started to experience some issues putting my car into second gear (grinding). I am deliberate with my shifting and haven't pushed the vehicle to any extremes. At times I have no problems shifting into second, and other times I experience some grinding or it disengages the gear...

I know this isn't exactly a straight-forward answer, there's a lot that goes into it. So, I'll start with the basics and you guys can give me feedback and I can fill in the gaps on anything I didn't specify initially. My Magnum V8 swap is nearing an end. The past 2 days have been spent...

Hey everyone. I've got an 06' X with the 42rle automatic that experiences the occasional hard-shift and some slipping. Inching up to 140k miles on the jeep and I would realllllyyyy like to swap to a manual trans (preference). That being said, I have an opportunity to get EVERYTHING I need...

I am doing an LS swap and therefore selling my 4.0 and NV3550 out of my 2004 TJ. Both are in good shape, I’m in Houston, engine I think has a rear main leak but it’s not major. I need to keep the electrical harness. It has a cold air intake and an aftermarket performance chip. I can also include...

Can anyone tell me if the transmission side of the bell housing is the same between the NV3550 and the AX15? Are the bell housings able to be swapped between the two?

So my TJ has a NV3550. When I accelerate in 3rd gear it sometimes makes a grinding/rattling sound. Anyone else ever experience this?

So I'm in the process of doing a transmission swap on my 97 SE. I'm going to the NV3550 with the NV341OR but for now I'm keeping my stock axels. Can I use the driveshafts from the Rubi that pair with the NV341OR or will I need to order something special from Adams or elsewhere? If I remember...

hey all new TJ owner and I just noticed manual transmission fluid all over the top of the transfer case and down the sides of the transmission. I pulled the plate inside of the cab and noticed there was a lot of fluid on the shifter tower. I pulled the inner boot off and there was about a half...

2002 Tj NV3550 5 speed I've noticed my clutch is starting to show signs of retiring itself. When I first take off from an overnight sit I'm noticing when I ease out on the clutch to take of it dumps itself about halfway through as though I side stepped it, 2nd gear is becoming harder to...

Hello all, Can a 2005-2006 tj shift bezel be used on a 2004 tj? I've got the 5 speed, put a body lift in and can't use 2nd 4th and reverse. I don't want to cut up the dash or run with no boot. I got a leather shift boot but i just found out they don't fit the plastic 04 and earlier bezels...
