Wow, what an interesting result so far.

Mileage all over the place.

Obviously shows that conditions and operator use must have a GREAT DEAL to do with clutch life.

54k stock, 4k with smarty jr. on 3. holding in there, but she'll slip in the bottom of any gear, moderate to light towing... just trying to save for a valair, or SB... seems to be better than the generation 2's 5 spd. i put 60k on a bone stocker and the clutch went out...

If you are talking about the '06 in your signature, i am pretty sure you have a G56 and not an NV5600. The G56 was introduced mid-year of 2005 to replace the NV5600 and, as far as I know, all standard transmissions behind the cummins from mid-05+ are G56. Is your Reverse gear located on top right or bottom left?

Of course, i could be totally wrong. The NV5600 was introduced to replace the NV4500 and yet there are '02s out there with the NV4500 while my '01 has the NV5600...
