Found an NP445 on Find Auto Parts Online for my truck. Tough 4-speed manual handles big torque. Bit clunky when cold but bulletproof for heavy loads. Perfect for my work rig.

Old-school heavy-duty trans, built like a tank. Not the smoothest shifter, but reliability is top-notch. Great for serious towing and off-road use.
