Re: 5 speed trans choices
Depends on what you want to do
Light duty trannies include T-5, NV3500
Heavy duty would be NV4500
None of them are really bolt ins, per se. T-5 is the closest.
Both the T-5 and the NV3500 are true light duty - if you're planning on doing towing or hauling, especially with upgraded motors, you're wasting time with these
That said, for a 2wd truck you might be better off with a gear vendors or similar overdrive unit
