You can restore a Dodge New Venture 4500 automatic transmission at home using this standard NV4500 transmission rebuild kit. Certain parts in any transmission such as bearings and gaskets will wear out, especially in tough off-road environments. Our NV4500 rebuild kit will restore the transmission to excellent working condition so you can enjoy thousands more miles on pavement, dirt, grass or rocks. We use NV4500 transmission parts that work as well as or better than the factory parts. Get this kit to do the rebuild yourself or supply a trusted mechanic with the necessary components.

Since the Dodge NV4500 transmission is no longer in production, proper maintenance and care are even more crucial. Advance Adapters offers this rebuild kit for the NV4500 to save you money and hassle compared to tracking down a replacement transmission. Contact us at 800-350-2223 to confirm whether you need a rebuild kit or to ask about a Dodge NV4500 diagram and other resources to help with installation. Many other NV4500 parts are available for your project, including conversion adapters, retainers, mounting brackets and shifter handles. If you need a GM NV4500 rebuild kit, search for part numbers 715691-C (1992-95) or 715691-D (1996 and later).

Frequently Asked Questions

How much horsepower can an NV4500 hold?

Depending on the year it was manufactured, how you're using it and whether you have the standard-duty (NV4500LD) or heavy-duty model, the NV4500 transmission can hold up to 600 hp and is rated for 460 lb.-ft. of torque. The cast-iron construction allows it to withstand more forces than the previous NV3500. However, subjecting the transmission to regular heavy towing, wide-open acceleration, clutch-dumping and other abuse will greatly reduce its horsepower threshold. Additional component modifications such as a larger input shaft can increase the transmission's power potential.

What are the common problems with NV4500 transmissions?

The most frequent issues with the NV4500 are:

  • The slip-fit fifth gear can cause excessive spline wear that leads to the gear failing.
  • This design also increases stress and wear on the rear main shaft bearing.
  • Worn bearings and thrust washers create end play in the main shaft, leading to gear-popping and shifting difficulty.
  • Using improper lubricant will cause damage to the synchronizer rings.
  • On Dodge trucks, the main shaft fifth-gear nut is known to come loose.
  • The stock needle-style pilot bearings may disintegrate when they run out of lubricant, causing floating in the clutch disc and input shaft.

Neglecting maintenance or overloading the transmission with constant extreme off-roading and heavy towing will make these problems more frequent and severe.
