72 000km Blown 66RFE sooo....g56 hemi swap?

[Mylesfromtown]

Love my truck hate my transmission. Lol
Sorry for spelling. Semi deslexic.
I have a 2017 72000km bought new and the transmission threw a few Codes somthing about 5th and 6th gear being missaligned lol.

So options i have considered are
1 replace with factory stock. And have same thing happen in another 72000km.
2 Rebuild and upgrade my trans, ats has a built 66fre but i woukd need a stage five according to the horse power charts and my truck is stock with 35" tires.
3 Pull the garbage 66rfe out and put in a allison or asien
4 or go all the way and do the g56 manual swap.

Anyone do any 6.4 hemi truck to G56 swap to a 6 spd Manual yet?
I believe old Power Wagons pre 2014 had a manual with a 5.7 hemi. But was it a 6spd ?

Assuming there is a bell housing out there, i want my truck to look 100% stock when done. Thats why im not willing to do it myself.

I know mexico today in 2024 offers a 5.7 hemi with a 5 spd 2wd. In the 4000 chasis cab.
I also thought In 2017 when i ordered from factory and played with build and price for weeks before hand.
i thought i could order a chasis cab with 6.4 6spd manual and 4x4.

I have no idea what im doing when it comes to new stuff and getting my good friend who runns a custom car shop in the town i live do the work.

Just seeing whats possible.

Whats been done.

Parts, kits, and costs.

Thanks.

The last manual transmission for the PW was 2008 in the 3rd Gen. A lot has changed since then. Bell housing, clutch linkage, ecu just to name a few things that you would need. It would be better to get your auto rebuilt.

Been awhile since I posted as it was not letting me post for a long time. Lets see how it goes. Yes, thats a 60K CVT reliable transmission sadly. 2019 saw the introduction of a real transmission finally. You can rebuild the clunker with better parts that should last. Not a good transmission, but it should last.

Interesting I had to do some weird stuff to get away from the errors, select full editor. Now it works regular after? Wow crazy
