Product Description
ADVANCE ADAPTERS 712586A is a complete OE-style NV4500 bellhousing replacement kit designed for 1994-2003 Dodge Ram trucks equipped with the legendary 5.9L Cummins diesel engine. Unlike the standard bellhousing-only version, this complete kit includes the clutch release arm, pivot ball, retaining clip, and associated hardware needed for manual transmission conversions or damaged bellhousing replacements.
Manufactured by Advance Adapters as a replacement for the discontinued OEM Dodge bellhousing, the 712586A provides factory-style fitment while simplifying installation by including critical clutch linkage components. This kit is especially popular for automatic-to-NV4500 manual transmission conversions where the factory clutch fork and pivot components are not available. It replaces OEM bellhousing number 53006513 and is designed for use with Dodge New Venture NV4500 transmissions.

FAQ
What is the difference between the 712586 and 712586A?
The 712586A includes the bellhousing, clutch release arm, pivot ball, pivot washer, retaining clip, and related hardware, while the 712586 is the bellhousing only.
Is this kit intended for automatic-to-NV4500 conversions?
Yes. Advance Adapters specifically notes that the 712586A is best suited for customers converting from a factory automatic transmission to an NV4500 manual transmission.
Does this replace OEM bellhousing 53006513?
Yes. The 712586A is designed as an OE-style replacement for Dodge OEM bellhousing number 53006513.
Will this fit all Dodge NV4500 transmissions?
This bellhousing is designed for Dodge New Venture NV4500 applications used behind the 5.9L Cummins and 8.0L V10 platforms within the listed model years.

The complete kit eliminates the need to locate clutch linkage components separately, making it ideal for conversions, rebuilds, or repairs where original clutch fork hardware is missing or damaged.
