not for my 'bolt, but i've ordered parts from them for my jeep-conversion. added an NP435 4-spd, and needed a new output shaft and transfer case adapter. that project was the first time i'd ever attempted to work on a transmission, and it went flawlessly. replacing the output shaft was simple.
fwiw, the ratios are 6.68:1 (1st), 3.34:1 (2nd), 1.74:1 (3rd), 1.00:1 (4th), and 8.26:1 (rev).
also, the only reason i installed the transmission was to obtain that "useless" granny gear.
most of the np435's are drof versions, but there are also dodge and chevy versions, too, although for most of those, the 1st gear ratio is around 4.0:1, instead of 6.68:1.
