Today i stumbled a cross a bunch of interesting tidbits of information that seem promising. Or at least a suspiciously long line of coincidences
The v5mt1 was only used with the 3.0 not the 3.5. The 3.5 non-US trucks came with the V5M31. The the kia sorento with a DOHC 3.5 was available with a manual trans for a few years when it first came out and i found a kia supplied tranmission education file on scribd that mentioned specifically torque capacity of this transmission is 31kgfm(kilogram force per meter). Then i found a russian site that mentioned mitsubishi puts the trans strength at the end of the transmission ID. That seemed wrong at first until i remembered the way kia listed their torque capacity... 31...V5M31?
Could these transmissions be like the engines and virtually identical?
Im going to try to find some of the places i ran across this info and link
If anyone has the resources to check this out please let us know, because i dont have them
Edit: M5UR1 is the kia transmission i was was thinking of but it actuall has a 32kgfm rating not 31(found on page 45). Also noticed this 2nd time through there is a comparison table between the V5MT1 used with a 2.5 diesel (kia ID may be M5ZR1(rated 23kgfm) from one of the tables) and a M5SR1(40kgfm rated) used by a 2.9 diesel and 3.5 v6. The list of vehicles associated with this comparison were not available in the US as far as i can tell.

M5SR1 looks to be available in the later 3.3 and 3.8 sorentos that the US did not get also

This thread implies the V5m31 is a step up in strength from the v5mt1.
v5mt1 vs v5m31

I could not find the russian side that mentioned trans strength as part of the ID unfortunately.
