??? Swapping 05 Allison Over To 06 Dodge 1 Ton..
Last june I bought a 05 chevy 1 ton for work. 3 months ago I was hit in the side by a van traveling at around 45mph. This happened the same day I got insurance. The insurance company don't want to pay so I'm having to sue. Theres no telling how long until the case is settled so I had to get another truck for work. The duramax still drive but the frame is bent pretty bad. Since I'm paying for 2 trucks I think I should use both trucks.
What I'm wanting to do is put the allison trans. in the Dodge.
How would I go about this?
What would I need to make this work?
Would it work?
Would it be worth the hassel?

Blake it has been done, but it is not very easily achieved. I talked to Joe at Suncoast Transmissions a few weeks back about this very subject. He said they had srated a project looking into doing it, but it was not economically feasible for the average guy. He told me it required machining adaptors,Shafts, & getting the dodge sensors to work on the allison. He said they abandoned the idea. If you want more info call Joe at suncoast & talk to him.

DR, I don't know where you are in FL, but Joe at Suncoast is in Ft Walton. Call & ask him about it. I can assure you he or one of his engineers can answer all your questions about it.

Who is the guy doing this swap in 2nd gen's? I am interested in the swap my self. A friend of mine owns a machine shop so the adapter should not be a big deal. I am more worried about the tcm working correctly. Does any one know for sure if the np241 will bolt to the allison?
