Transmission we can help. Below you will find a detailed parts list for the Dodge G56 manual transmission that includes complete rebuilt transmissions, bearing rebuild kits with and without syncro rings, individual bearings, syncro components, gears, shaftscase, retainer and performance clutch kits. The G56 transmission was designed as a replacement for the NV5600 transmission. Most commonly, this transmission can be found in class 4 and 5 heavy duty trucks that require a manual transmission. In fact, since 2005 and for nearly 15 years after the G56 manual transmission was the only manual transmission suitable for trucks of that gross.

The G56 is a great transmission, and it is lighter than its predecessor the NV5600. The G56 is manufactured in Brazil, and has great reputation there. Here at High Gear we see all kinds of problems with different transmissions. The NV5600 gets hot and burns up, but the G56 breaks. These are made for work trucks, they work hard and they should, that is what they are made for, but if you have a strong engine and a heavy load, that energy has to go somewhere. If the clutch doesn’t slip and the rear wheels don’t spin, then the transmission will break, and that is what we see. It will not burn up or wear out, it will simply break. We have remanufactured numerous G56 units in the past few years and in every situation either the case or gears have broken. We have even seen the cases break from too much torque, so the motor is actually twisting the transmission. We’ve even seen rear mounts that were twisted up from the cross member, but at High Gear we have solutions!
G56 Manual Transmission Fluid
The manufacturer recommends ATF-4 (4quarts) oil, but here at High Gear we are running Delvac Mobil 50 and are experiencing great results. High Gear recommends to fill until you spill (until it spills out the fill hole, about 4 quarts) and then pour an additional 2 quarts in the shift hole (where the shifter stick is). We have been running Delvac Mobil 50 weight oil from the Florida Keys all the way up to Toronto with great results. Feel free to call us if you have any questions, 901-278-0090.
