Who knows what about manual nv 4500 transmission

<div class="bbWrapper">On the driveshaft I have the yoke, they cut the original driveshaft. I know that I&#039;m gonna have to go see the driveshaft shop</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">What about the spring while taking it apart? Did you buy or build a tool?</div>

Just in case I also don&#039;t want to destroy anything original.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">I bought the tool, I have had a 12 ton press of my own to use it with for years. <br /> My dealer transmission buddy just had a big drill press that didn&#039;t run in his shed, that he used as a press for that spring but with his setup it was a 2 person deal.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">My driveshaft in my truck was originally a 1 piece deal. I&#039;m staying with that.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Going to see what the shop wants. If to much the tool kits still available. I am still not sure why an alignment shaft would be needed. That shaft needs to go back in so why not use it?</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Too long to use in most presses. But if you don&#039;t use something to line up the splines as it goes back together you&#039;ll never get that OD back on.<br /> I bought a used original output shaft and cut it down.</div>

I think my press can be adjusted enough to do this. Still haven&#039;t contacted the transmission shop. I prefer to do this inhouse. But sometimes things just aren&#039;t cost affective.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">I&#039;ve seen a plastic dummy shaft advertised for not a terrible lot of money, when you draw it out after pressing it together there really isn&#039;t much tension on the shaft as it comes out</div>
