I did not see if you used the dodge or the GM tranny, but the dodge NV4500 had issues with the 5th gear nut backing off, and the gear failing. They would get noisy first and then going down the road 5th gear will just stop working.

From what I was told the 5th gear issue was addressed in the trannies after the '96 model year.
