Yukon Gear ZMNV25982 NV4500 4-Bolt Shifter Stub for 1998-2002 Dodge Ram MT

Vehicle Fitment

• 1998-2002 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 equipped with a 4-bolt rectangle-mount NV4500 5-speed manual transmission

Fitment Notes

• Fitment is determined by the 4-bolt rectangle shift tower mounting pattern on the NV4500 - confirm your transmission's mounting bolt pattern before ordering
• Some listings using overlapping interchange part numbers (25982, NV25982) advertise a broader 1996-and-up range; that broader range could not be confirmed for this specific Yukon/USA Standard Gear part number (ZMNV25982), so only the 1998-2002 4-bolt window is listed here
• Engine-specific fitment (5.9L diesel vs. 8.0L V10 gas) was not confirmed for this exact SKU

Product Description

The Yukon Gear ZMNV25982 is a replacement shifter stub built for the NV4500 5-speed manual transmission found in 1998-2002 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks with the 4-bolt rectangle shift tower mounting pattern. The shifter stub is a common wear or failure point in these transmissions - worn threads or a stripped stub can lead to a loose, disconnected, or non-functional shifter that no longer holds gear engagement properly.

This replacement is manufactured to restore proper fit and function at the shift tower interface, giving the shifter mechanism a solid mounting point again. It's designed as a direct bolt-in replacement for trucks with the 4-bolt mounting configuration, matching the original hardware pattern.

This is a good fit for Dodge Ram 2500/3500 NV4500 owners dealing with a loose, wobbly, or non-functional shifter, or anyone rebuilding the shift tower assembly as part of a broader transmission service. Since the NV4500 saw several mounting and hardware changes across its production run, confirming your truck's 4-bolt mounting pattern before ordering is important to ensure correct fitment.
