I had an allison in my other truck and I purchaced another dmax with a 6spd manual. does anyone know anything about transmission kits for them? whats a good brand, prices, what all should I do to "beef it up", ect..thanks!

 

[kman2468]

south bend triple disc

 

[kivetts04dmax]

is that the only thing I can do? also is it normal for that brand to make funny noises? i have a buddy that has one in a cummins and it rattles and sounds like shit..didnt know if that was normal..

 

[brown bear]

that it !! and all you need ^^.....^^

 

[kman2468]

i havent heard of any problems in anybodys on here
i think it is the best thing u can do for your manual tranny

 

[brown bear]

Not that i know of in a duramax

 

[kivetts04dmax]

what would u all recommend, the double disk or triple disk?

 

[kman2468]

it depends on your future goals
but i say do it right the first time and dont have to worry and do triple

 

[kivetts04dmax]

sounds good, thanks! it just had a clutch put in it b4 I bought it..so I have a clutch with only 1,500 miles on it if you know of anyone with a manual, they are a little rare..:gearjamin

 

[kman2468]

theres a guy on here by the name of 05_LLY that i think has the fastest quarter mile manual for the dmax

 

[kivetts04dmax]

well I definatly dont want anything like that..but I do plan on building it and maybe hookin it to a sled once in a while when im home..do you have a part# for the triple disk?

 

[kman2468]

i can see what i can do for you tomorrow when tyler gets on!

 

[kivetts04dmax]

sounds good, I appreciate it!!

 

[kivetts04dmax]

how long do you think my new stock clutch will hold up with a lift pump and ppe programmer turned up a little?

 

[kivetts04dmax]

bump to top..

the rattling is probably the dual mass flywheel there problematic so im told but south bend sells a single mass flywheel and either a single double and triple disc clutch depending on your performance needs and i read in diesel power a lly gmc i believe with a zf6 is the fastest manual diesel pickup period ran mid to high elevens in all the zf6s are supposively better shifting and stouter than nv5600s used by crap cummings

you don't need a tripple disk! LOL

a dual disk will be PLENTY
