I have searched but have had no luck. Didnt want to post this in the dodge section as this is a newbie question, and i just dont have a lot of knowledge on these transmissions.

I purchased a 93 dodge 4x4 1 ton with a cummins. Found out it has a getrag 5 speed and not the nv4500 i was told. I am going to rob the motor, trans, transfer and put it into my 73 chevy crew cab shortbed.

While driving the dodge, when shifting from 3rd to 4th, the shifter just falls on the seat. Then you have to play with it to get it back into 3rd and find a sweet spot to shift again. Is this a common thing with this style trans? I will be going to a nv4500 later, but I am wanting to make this crew cab my tow rig.

Is this just a top plate detent issue? I can shift it into 4th if I hit the sweet spot, but most of the time the shifter just falls onto the seat.
