NV3500 5-speed transmission: shift tower replacement, 2000 Chevy Silverado

Описание: Edit: Due to everybody asking repeatedly in the comments, here is a link to the shift tower that I used (which can easily be found using Google or any other internet search engine - come on people, at least try).
Note: I am not affiliated with Allstate Gear, this is just where I bought the part from. It came with a new gasket and a new bushing. https://www.allstategear.com/NV3500-S...

Good morning everyone. Had this old girl in the shop recently for a few issues, the biggest one being that the shift lever ball had popped out of it's corresponding socket on the trans, and it wasn't driveable. I managed to open the top up and get it into first gear, and then limp it up to the shop.

As it turns out, the whole shift tower was trashed due to improper reassembly after someone had messed with it - and it had obviously been that way for many years. Blame aside, it definitely needed to be replaced so that's what we did. The result was a pretty dramatic improvement to how this truck operates - shifts are faster, gears are easier to find, and the overall driving experience is vastly improved.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, everyone. Thanks for watching!
