Overview

If you are making over 400 horsepower and need to upgrade from a tired four-speed, the TREMEC TKX delivers everything your Ford build demands. Unlike repurposed OE transmissions, the TKX was engineered from the ground up specifically for the aftermarket - designed to handle serious power while fitting into classic Mustangs and other vintage Fords without the floor surgery typically required by larger transmissions.

The end-loaded case design is the key to the TKX's compact footprint. TREMEC eliminated the traditional side-loading architecture, resulting in a slimmer, more streamlined case that clears tight transmission tunnels. The three-piece ribbed aluminum housing (main case, intermediate plate, and rear extension) delivers outstanding structural stiffness while reducing overall weight to just 99 lbs dry. Fewer case seams mean fewer potential leak points, and gaskets at all flanges simplify installation.

Inside, the TKX punches well above its weight class. Wide gear widths increase gear life and torque capacity, while tapered roller bearings on the input, output, and countershafts reduce noise and improve durability. Caged needle bearings on the mainshaft optimize performance at all gear positions. The internal three-rail shift system provides robust, precise gear engagement, and the rear mainshaft support bushing has been relocated closer to the gearbox for improved support. Hybrid triple-cone synchronizers made from sintered bronze and carbon deliver smooth, notch-free shifts even at 7,500 RPM.

This close-ratio configuration (2.87 first gear with 0.68 overdrive) keeps your engine in its powerband during spirited driving while dropping highway RPM for improved fuel economy and reduced wear. Short input shaft kits are available for Ford 3-speed and 4-speed bellhousing applications. Made from 100% brand-new OEM-quality components.

Description

Adding a modern overdrive transmission behind your Ford FE big block means solving the bellhousing puzzle - and cheap adapters just create new problems. The QuickTime RM-6056 delivers the dimensional precision that keeps your drivetrain aligned and your clutch releasing cleanly, whether you're bolting up a TKO, TKX, T5 Mustang, or TR3550 behind your 352, 360, 390, 427, or 428 FE.

QuickTime's proprietary spin-forming process creates a fundamentally different bellhousing than competitors. Where others stamp or roll their cones - introducing distortion and stress risers - QuickTime spins theirs from high-grade steel that work-hardens to over 80,000 PSI. That's more than twice the strength of conventional steel bellhousings. The result is a cone that maintains perfect dimensional stability through the entire RPM range, eliminating the flex that causes accelerated input bearing wear, pilot bushing failure, and power loss.

The RM-6056 features a 7.05-inch bellhousing depth paired with a universal transmission bore that accepts Ford T5, TKO500/600, TKX, and TR3550 input bearing retainers. It handles up to a 184-tooth flywheel with a 12-inch clutch and works with both Ford OE mechanical fork linkage and hydraulic throwout bearing systems. This is a universal-fit bellhousing, not vehicle-specific, making it the go-to solution for FE swaps and custom builds where factory pieces don't exist.

Note: This bellhousing is NOT SFI 6.1 certified. Many sanctioning bodies require SFI certification for cars running 11.49 or faster in the quarter mile - if that's your application, look for the RM-6056SFI. Founded by former dirt track racer Ross McCombs, QuickTime earned their reputation building bellhousings tough enough for racing abuse. Every RM-6056 is manufactured in the United States.

What's Included

• QuickTime RM-6056 spun steel bellhousing

Description

Bellhousing flex kills drivetrain components and robs horsepower. When a bellhousing deflects under load, the engine and transmission fall out of alignment, accelerating wear on input shaft bearings, pilot bushings, and clutch components while introducing parasitic power losses. The QuickTime RM-8010 solves this with spun steel cone construction that delivers twice the strength of competing steel bellhousings while maintaining pinpoint dimensional accuracy throughout the entire rpm range.

The difference is in the manufacturing process. QuickTime spins their cones rather than rolling or stamping them like competitors. This spun construction creates the most dimensionally stable bellhousing on the market - parallelism and concentricity that lesser housings simply cannot match. The high-grade steel work-hardens under stress, reaching over 80,000 PSI strength for proven durability in circle track, drag strip, and street applications. A patent-pending 16-point design and manufacturing process incorporates input from OEMs, engine builders, transmission builders, racers, and enthusiasts.

The RM-8010 bridges Ford 351M, 400M, 429, and 460 big-block engines to Ford-pattern T5, TR-3550, TKO 500, TKO 600, and TREMEC TKX 5-speed transmissions. The 7.05-inch bellhousing depth accommodates 176-tooth flywheels and clutch assemblies up to 12 inches. A universal transmission bore of 4.685-4.910 inches handles multiple input shaft configurations with the included adjustable pivot. This is a non-SFI bellhousing suited for street cruising and moderate competition - builders running over 500 hp or serious racing applications should consider an SFI-certified unit.

Designed and manufactured 100% in the USA by QuickTime, the undisputed leader in bellhousing technology founded by former dirt track racer Ross McCombs. MDL provides lifetime technical support to help you dial in your big-block Ford 5-speed conversion.

Description

When upgrading to a TREMEC TKX 5-speed transmission, factory T5 transmission-to-bellhousing bolts are incompatible with TKX applications. This hardware kit provides the correct bolt lengths and grade specifically engineered for steel bellhousing installations on Ford applications. Steel bellhousings require different bolt lengths than aluminum bellhousing kits - using the wrong hardware can result in improper engagement, case damage, or unsafe mounting conditions.

This MDL hardware kit solves the sourcing headache by providing the exact fasteners needed for your steel bellhousing installation. The Grade 8 bolts deliver the clamping force necessary to handle the TKX's 600 lb-ft torque capacity, while hardened washers ensure even load distribution across the bellhousing mounting flange. Proper hardware is critical - never use transmission-to-bellhousing bolts to draw or pull the transmission up to the bellhousing, as damage to the pilot bearing and transmission case ears may result.

This kit is designed for use with popular steel scatter shields including QuickTime and Lakewood bellhousings for Ford small block applications paired with the TKX transmission. When installing, ensure the transmission is fully seated by hand against the bellhousing before torquing fasteners to specification. Made in the USA with lifetime tech support from MDL.

Description

Factory cast iron flywheels served their purpose in stock applications, but they become a liability in performance builds. Cast iron is prone to stress cracking under high RPM and increased clutch clamping loads, and at elevated engine speeds, a failing iron flywheel can be catastrophic. This billet steel flywheel solves those problems while retaining the rotational mass needed for confident launches in torque-heavy Ford FE applications.

Billet construction starts with solid steel bar stock that is completely machined to final dimensions. This process eliminates the internal stresses and porosity inherent in castings, resulting in a flywheel that resists cracking and handles higher clamping forces from performance clutches. The material is significantly stronger than gray iron while maintaining the thermal stability needed for repeated heat cycles from aggressive driving.

At 30 pounds, this flywheel strikes the right balance for Ford FE street/strip builds. It is light enough to improve throttle response over a factory cast piece, yet heavy enough to store the rotational energy needed for smooth engagement and strong launches in heavier vehicles. The precision-machined friction surface works effectively with modern organic and ceramic clutch materials.

Designed as a direct bolt-in replacement for internally balanced (zero balance) Ford FE engines including the 390, 427, and 428. The 184-tooth ring gear ensures proper starter engagement, and the 11-inch clutch bolt pattern accepts standard pressure plates. Made in the USA with precision manufacturing standards.

What's Included

• Billet steel flywheel with 184-tooth ring gear
• Precision-machined friction surface
• Zero balance for internally balanced FE engines
• Lifetime technical support from MDL

Key Features

• Billet steel construction eliminates stress cracks and withstands high RPM and heavy clutch clamping loads
• 28oz external balance matches Ford 428ci FE engine requirements
• 184-tooth ring gear for correct FE starter engagement
• 30-pound optimized weight balances rotational inertia with improved throttle response
• 6-bolt asymmetric crankshaft mounting ensures proper counterweight indexing
• 11" clutch bolt pattern compatible with Long style and BBCO pressure plates
• Precision-machined friction surface for consistent clutch engagement
• Made in the USA

Description

Ford's 428ci FE is one of the few FE engines that requires external balance - 28oz of counterweight on the flywheel to offset the longer stroke. Cast iron flywheels handle the job adequately in stock applications, but under performance conditions they become stress-crack liabilities. When you're running aggressive clutch clamping forces and high RPM, you need billet steel.

This Lighten Billet Steel flywheel is machined from solid steel bar stock, delivering the structural integrity that cast iron simply cannot match. The 30-pound weight is deliberately optimized - heavy enough to store adequate rotational energy for smooth launches and drivability, yet light enough to sharpen throttle response compared to stock cast units. The integrated 28oz counterweight is precision-positioned and indexed via Ford's asymmetric 6-bolt crankshaft pattern, ensuring proper balance alignment every time.

The 184-tooth ring gear is correct for Ford FE engines from 1965-on and engages properly with standard FE starters. The 11" friction surface is machined for 11" and 11.5" Long style pressure plate bolt patterns - the same configurations used on factory FE clutch systems. This gives you flexibility to run either traditional Long style three-pair bolt patterns or modern diaphragm-style pressure plates designed for the Long pattern.

Direct bolt-in replacement for Ford 428ci FE engines requiring 28oz external balance. Also fits externally balanced 410ci FE applications. Single-disc clutch compatible. Proudly made in the USA with lifetime technical support from MDL.

• 176-tooth ring gear for proper starter engagement
• Dual pressure plate bolt patterns: 12-3/8" EQ and 11.5" Long (BBCO) for broad clutch compatibility
• Six 7/16" crankshaft mounting bolt holes for secure attachment
• 5/16" pressure plate bolt holes
• Accepts 11" single-disc clutch assemblies
• Made in the USA

Description

Stock cast iron flywheels on Ford 429/460 big blocks carry serious rotating mass - mass that robs acceleration and slows engine response. This billet steel flywheel solves that problem, trimming weight down to just 30 pounds while maintaining the strength needed for street and strip duty. The result is quicker throttle response and faster acceleration without sacrificing durability.

CNC-machined from high-grade lighten billet steel, this flywheel delivers the toughness required for high-horsepower applications. The zero balance design matches the internal balance configuration of Ford 429 and 460 engines from 1969 through 1978 - no external counterweights required. Simply bolt it to your crankshaft using the six 7/16" mounting holes and you're ready for clutch installation.

Clutch compatibility is built in. The flywheel accepts 11" single-disc clutch assemblies and features dual pressure plate bolt patterns - both 12-3/8" EQ and 11.5" Long (BBCO) - so you can run a variety of aftermarket clutch systems.

Description

When Ford switched the 460 big block to external balance in 1979, flywheel selection became critical - install an internally balanced flywheel on a '79-and-later 460 and you'll have vibration issues that no amount of tuning will fix. This Lighten Billet Steel Flywheel is engineered specifically for 1979-1999 Ford 460 engines, with a precision-machined 24oz counterweight that matches the external balance requirements of these later big blocks.

Machined from lighten billet steel, this flywheel delivers the strength and heat capacity of steel while shedding unnecessary weight compared to heavy cast iron OEM units. The 30-pound design strikes the right balance - light enough to improve throttle response and reduce drivetrain inertia, yet heavy enough to maintain smooth idle characteristics and provide adequate thermal mass for demanding clutch applications. The 176-tooth hardened ring gear ensures positive starter engagement and long service life.

The flywheel attaches to the crankshaft via a six-bolt pattern using 7/16" bolts, and the clutch side is drilled for multiple pressure plate configurations including 11" Long, BBCO, and 12-3/8" EQ patterns with 5/16" bolt holes. This versatility accommodates a wide range of high-performance clutch systems, whether you're running a single-disc street setup or stepping up to a more aggressive combination. Compatible with single-disc clutch assemblies using 11" discs.

Designed and manufactured in the USA, this flywheel is the correct choice for anyone doing a manual transmission swap or clutch upgrade on a 1979-1999 Ford 460 - whether it's powering a heavy-duty F-Series truck or a big-block swap project.

Description

Original Ford Flathead flywheel bolts were never designed for the stresses of performance applications. Whether you're running a hot rod, vintage racer, or a well-tuned cruiser, upgraded flywheel hardware is cheap insurance against a catastrophic failure that could take out your clutch, bellhousing, and more.

This ARP Pro Series flywheel bolt kit delivers aerospace-grade strength to your Ford Flathead V8. Forged from 8740 chromoly steel and heat-treated before thread rolling and machining, these bolts achieve a tensile strength rating between 190,000 and 200,000 psi -- far exceeding anything that came stock. The heat-treat-then-roll manufacturing sequence maximizes fatigue resistance where it matters most: at the thread roots.

The flat 12-point head design offers superior tool engagement compared to hex-head bolts, reducing the chance of rounding during installation or when breaking loose old hardware. A larger-than-stock shank diameter improves flywheel register and centering. Each kit includes installation grease to ensure consistent, accurate torque readings.

Description

When upgrading a Ford big block to a modern TREMEC transmission, the clutch has to bridge two worlds - the original Ford bolt pattern and a 26-spline input shaft that the factory never anticipated. The Big Block Change Over (BBCO) pattern solves this, and MDL's Superior series clutch set delivers the quality and precision that serious builders demand. Hand-assembled in-house at MDL's Caldwell, Idaho facility, every clutch disc is double-checked for accuracy and tolerances before shipping, so you get a ready-to-install premium piece right out of the box.

The organic/organic facing combination offers the ideal balance for street-driven Ford FE, 385-series, and other big block applications. Unlike harsh ceramic or metallic facings that grab aggressively, organic material provides smooth, progressive engagement that's forgiving in stop-and-go traffic while still delivering a solid 400 lb-ft torque capacity. The 11.5-inch long pattern diaphragm pressure plate delivers consistent clamping force across the full disc face with lighter pedal effort than traditional three-finger Long-style pressure plates.

The 26-spline x 1-1/8-inch hub is purpose-built for TREMEC transmission swaps, mating directly to TKX, TKO, and T56 Magnum input shafts. The sprung hub design dampens driveline shock that would otherwise stress synchronizers and input shaft bearings - critical protection when pairing big block torque with a high-performance manual gearbox. This kit is configured for hydraulic release systems (internal or external slave cylinders), so no mechanical throwout bearing is included.

Every Superior series clutch is backed by MDL's 1-year free-from-defect warranty and lifetime technical support. Made in the USA with the precision and attention to detail that Ford big block builders expect.

Description

Ford's 385-series big blocks--the 429 and 460--were designed as luxury-car torque monsters, but builders have been putting manual transmissions behind them for decades. The challenge? Finding a clutch that can handle serious torque without requiring a leg press workout at every stoplight. This Superior Series Big Block Change Over clutch kit delivers 650 ft-lbs of torque capacity through an 11.5" long pattern diaphragm pressure plate, giving you the clamping force needed for high-power street and strip duty while keeping pedal effort manageable in hydraulic release setups.

The hybrid friction material strategy is engineered for optimal performance and longevity. Kevlar on the pressure plate side handles initial engagement heat and provides excellent fade resistance under hard use, while the steel-backed organic facing on the flywheel side delivers smooth, progressive engagement for streetable manners. This combination gives you the best of both worlds--aggressive holding power when you need it, civilized behavior when you don't. The profiled clutch fingers ensure even pressure distribution across the entire friction surface.

Every MDL Superior clutch disk is hand-assembled in-house to exacting tolerances. Double-riveted construction ensures the facings stay put under repeated high-load cycles, and each assembly is inspected before it goes in the box.

Description

Worn shift balls with faded graphics look cheap and undermine an otherwise clean build. This MDL 5-Speed Black Shift Ball solves that problem with subsurface graphics that are embedded below the polished surface - they physically cannot wear off, fade, or chip regardless of how many miles you put on the car or how aggressively you shift.

The ball is constructed from a specially formulated high-impact polymer resin developed specifically for automotive applications. Unlike generic plastics that crack and degrade with age and temperature cycling, this formulation resists stress cracking even after years of exposure to heat, cold, and UV light. At 4 ounces, the weight is calibrated to provide positive shift engagement without the excessive mass that can stress synchronizers or create unwanted momentum during quick shifts.

Inside, a brass or aluminum master insert provides the threaded mounting point and exceeds automotive industry specifications - tested to withstand 200 ft. lbs. of static pull force and 20 ft. lbs. of twist torque. The 3/8"-16 internal threading fits most domestic shifter applications, and MDL stocks thread adapters for virtually any shifter setup if your lever uses a different thread pitch. Each ball is precision machined and polished to a high-gloss finish that looks as good as it feels.

Made in the USA by a manufacturer that has been producing precision shift components since 1952, this shift ball delivers the quality and attention to detail that serious builds demand. Whether you are finishing a classic muscle car, a restomod, or a modern performance machine, the MDL logo and 5-speed pattern tell everyone you built it right.

Description

The shift knob is your primary connection point to the drivetrain during every gear change. This white 5-speed shift ball delivers the durability and feel you need with high-impact polymer resin specifically formulated for automotive applications. Unlike generic plastics that develop stress cracks over time from temperature cycling and repeated use, this material is engineered to handle real-world performance conditions.

The 1-7/8" diameter provides excellent grip surface and comfortable palm contact. The 5-speed shift pattern is applied subsurface, meaning the graphics are embedded within the material rather than printed on top -- they physically cannot wear off from years of shifting. The entire ball is precision machined and polished to a high-gloss finish that resists scratching and cleans easily.

At the core is a brass master insert machined to 16mm x 1.50 threading. This insert is tested to exceed automotive industry specifications: 200 ft-lbs of static pull and 20 ft-lbs of twist torque. Because the knob uses the common 16mm x 1.50 master insert, it accepts MDL's complete line of thread reducing inserts -- so you can adapt it to fit 3/8"-16, 3/8"-24, 5/16"-18, 12mm x 1.75, 10mm x 1.50, and other common shift lever thread sizes. If your shifter doesn't use 16mm x 1.50 threading, just add the appropriate reducer to make it work.

Weighing 4 ounces, this knob provides enough mass for positive shifting feedback without the excessive weight that can stress shift mechanisms or cause gear selection issues. Made in the USA with automotive-grade materials and quality craftsmanship.

Description

Slamming into reverse at speed is a quick way to grenade a gearbox. This 5-speed shift ball eliminates that risk with an integrated side-mounted push button lockout that requires deliberate activation before reverse can be selected. The button includes wiring for connection to various shifter configurations that utilize electronic or mechanical reverse lockout functionality.

The ball itself is built from specially formulated high-impact polymer resin designed specifically for the automotive industry. Unlike cheap plastic knobs that crack under stress or go chalky from heat cycles, this material resists stress cracking with age while handling the torque and temperature swings of hard driving. The 1-7/8" diameter provides solid palm contact for confident shifting, and the polished white finish cleans up easily.

Mounting uses a 16mm x 1.50 brass master insert with an included brass jam nut. This thread size is common on 1982-2002 Camaro and Firebird shifters, Pontiac Fiero applications, and various aftermarket shifters. For other thread sizes, pair this shift ball with MDL thread reducers to adapt down to your specific shifter requirements.

This 5-speed black shift ball puts a side-mounted momentary push button exactly where your thumb naturally rests, giving you instant access to nitrous activation, line lock, or other electrical accessories without fumbling for a dashboard switch or console button.

The side-mount placement is intentional: unlike top-mounted buttons that can be accidentally triggered during aggressive shifts, this configuration requires deliberate engagement. The included 18" wire harness gives you plenty of length to route to your relay or control module, with terminals ready for connection. Whether you're staging at the strip or wiring in a secondary system, the button is right there when you need it.

Built from black polymer resin, this 2-1/8" diameter shift ball delivers comfortable ergonomics for extended driving sessions while standing up to the abuse of street and track duty. The 16mm x 1.5 threads are the industry-standard size for shift knob adapters, which means you can pair this ball with MDL's thread reducing inserts to fit virtually any shift lever thread pitch -- from 3/8"-16 to 5/16"-18 and beyond.

Perfect for street/strip builds, drag applications, or any 5-speed manual transmission setup where you need reliable switch control at your fingertips.

Description

That cracked, torn, or UV-damaged shift boot in your Hurst-equipped '69-'70 Mustang isn't just ugly - it lets dirt, debris, and moisture into your shifter mechanism. This OEM-spec reproduction restores the factory look and function that Ford engineers intended when they designed the original. Built to Ford part number D0ZZ-7277-B specifications, it drops right in without modification.

The boot is manufactured from compression molded EPDM rubber, the same material used in original Ford production. EPDM holds up to temperature extremes, resists UV degradation, and won't crack or tear like cheap vinyl alternatives. The textured skin surface replicates the original factory finish exactly - no smooth, generic appearance that screams "aftermarket" to anyone who knows these cars.

An integrated steel insert is molded into the base, providing the same secure mounting as the original equipment boot. This steel reinforcement prevents the flexing and tearing that kills generic universal boots within a few months of use. The rectangular opening is sized specifically for Hurst's distinctive rectangular shifter lever - this is not a round-lever boot, and it won't work with factory Ford shifters or other aftermarket units.

Fits 1969-1970 Mustangs equipped with Hurst 4-speed shifters. For a complete console restoration, pair this boot with the matching OEM-style shift boot bezel, available separately (see MD-321-1062-B).

Description

Swapping a T5, TKO, TKX, or AOD into your '69-'73 Mustang or Cougar means the stock speedometer cable won't reach or route correctly. This 63" speedometer cable delivers the correct length for proper routing from the transmission to your factory mechanical speedometer, eliminating the binding, kinking, or slack that comes with using a generic or incorrect-length cable.

The cable features OEM-style clip connections at the speedometer head, ensuring direct compatibility with your factory gauge cluster without modification. At the transmission end, the cable uses a Ford slip-in connection that interfaces with the driven gear housing on T5, TKO, TKX, and AOD transmissions. This is the correct cable for maintaining your mechanical speedometer function after a modern drivetrain swap.

Unlike screw-on or barrel-style cables used in other Mustang years, '69-'73 models require this clip-style termination. If you're running long-tube headers, consider wrapping the cable where it routes near the exhaust to protect it from heat.

What's Included

• 63" speedometer cable with clip-style speedometer connection
• Ford slip-in transmission connection

Key Features

Description

When you swap to a 5- or 6-speed transmission, your original speedometer gear won't work with the new final drive ratio, throwing off your speedometer readings. This 16-tooth driven gear provides the correct gear ratio match to restore accurate speedometer operation in Ford T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum applications.

Selecting the correct driven gear depends on your rear axle ratio and tire diameter. The wine-colored housing provides instant visual confirmation of the 16-tooth count during installation and future service, eliminating guesswork when fine-tuning your speedometer calibration. Each tooth change adjusts the speedometer reading approximately 4-5 mph, so selecting the right gear for your combination is critical.

This is the correct driven gear for all Ford T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum transmissions. Whether you're building a street machine that sees daily driving or a weekend cruiser that needs reliable instrumentation, this precision-molded gear delivers smooth, accurate speedometer operation mile after mile.

What's Included

• 16-tooth speedometer driven gear with wine-colored housing

Key Features

• 17-tooth driven gear with white color coding for easy identification
• Direct fit for Ford TREMEC transmissions: T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum
• Precision-molded plastic construction for smooth, quiet operation
• Lower tooth count for higher axle ratios and/or taller tires
• Works with cable-driven mechanical speedometer systems

Description

Swapping to a 5 or 6-speed TREMEC transmission changes your final drive ratio, which means your factory speedometer gear combination no longer reads accurately. This 17-tooth white driven gear lets you recalibrate your mechanical speedometer to match your new drivetrain setup.

Speedometer driven gear selection depends on four variables: drive gear tooth count (on the output shaft), driven gear tooth count, tire diameter, and axle ratio. The 17-tooth count is typically paired with lower-numerical axle ratios or taller tires. Use a speedometer gear calculator to determine the correct tooth count for your specific combination of drive gear, rear end ratio, and tire height.

The white color coding makes this gear instantly identifiable, both in your parts bin and during installation. This precision-molded plastic gear meshes smoothly with the transmission's output shaft drive gear, delivering reliable operation without the noise or wear issues that can plague poorly-manufactured replacements.

This driven gear fits all Ford TREMEC transmissions including T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum. Whether you're building a classic Mustang, Fairlane, or any Ford platform with a mechanical speedometer, this gear helps dial in accurate speed readings after your manual transmission conversion.

Kit Includes

• 17-tooth speedometer driven gear, white plastic

Speedometer Driven Gear | Ford T5/T45/TKO/TKX/Magnum | 18-Tooth Yellow

Key Features

• 18-tooth driven gear for speedometer calibration on Ford-pattern transmissions
• Yellow color-coded for quick identification during installation and service
• Fits Ford T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum transmissions
• Precision molded for accurate tooth engagement and long service life
• Direct replacement--installs into existing speedometer drive housing without modification

Description

When you swap in a 5- or 6-speed manual transmission, your factory speedometer gear ratio goes out the window. The new transmission's final drive ratio won't mesh with your original speedo gear, leaving your speedometer reading inaccurately--sometimes wildly so. This 18-tooth yellow driven gear lets you dial in the correct speedometer calibration for your specific tire size and rear axle ratio combination.

This driven gear fits the full range of Ford-pattern TREMEC transmissions: T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum. The industry-standard yellow color coding makes identification simple--no guessing which tooth count you're running when it's time for service or recalibration after a gear ratio change. The precision-molded construction ensures consistent tooth engagement with the drive gear for accurate, reliable speedometer readings mile after mile.

Installation is straightforward--the gear slides directly into the transmission's speedometer drive housing. If your speedometer calibration calculations call for more than 21 teeth (the maximum available driven gear size), you'll need to reduce the drive gear tooth count instead. Use a speedometer gear calculator with your tire diameter, axle ratio, and transmission drive gear tooth count to determine the correct driven gear for your application.

Kit Includes

• 18-tooth yellow speedometer driven gear

Key Features

• 19-tooth driven gear for precise speedometer calibration
• Pink color-coded for instant tooth count identification
• Fits Ford T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and TREMEC T56 Magnum transmissions
• Essential for correcting speedometer accuracy after gear ratio or tire size changes
• Precision molded construction for reliable, long-lasting operation

Description

When you swap transmissions, change rear axle ratios, or bolt on different tire sizes, your speedometer no longer reads correctly. This 19-tooth driven gear lets you recalibrate for accurate readings by changing the gear ratio between your transmission's output and the speedometer cable. It's the driven gear -- the one that mounts to the speedometer cable end and inserts into the transmission tailhousing.

The pink color follows Ford's standardized identification system, making it easy to confirm the tooth count at a glance when you're sorting through your parts bin or comparing against your current setup. If your speedometer reads too fast with your current gear, stepping up to this 19-tooth unit will slow the reading. Each additional tooth changes the speedometer reading by approximately 5-6%. If you need an even higher tooth count, 21-tooth is the largest available in the driven gear; beyond that, you'll need to reduce the drive gear size instead.

This gear fits all Ford T5, T45, and Ford T56 transmissions, as well as all TREMEC TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum units. Installation is straightforward: remove the speedometer cable from the tailhousing, swap the driven gear, and reinstall.

What's Included

• One 19-tooth speedometer driven gear (pink)

Key Features

• 20-tooth driven gear for precise speedometer calibration
• Black color-coded for easy identification per Ford specification
• Fits Ford T5, T45, Ford T56, TREMEC T56 Magnum, TKO, and TKX transmissions
• Direct replacement for worn or incorrect factory gears
• Precision-molded plastic construction for durability and accurate engagement

Description

Transmission swaps and axle gear changes throw off speedometer accuracy - this 20-tooth driven gear gets your needle reading true again. When you install a five- or six-speed manual, the final drive ratio no longer matches your original speedometer gear, leaving you guessing at your actual speed. The correct driven gear restores accurate instrumentation so you know exactly how fast you're going.

This precision-molded driven gear is color-coded black for 20-tooth identification, following the standard Ford speedometer gear system. It pairs with the 7-tooth drive gear found on TREMEC TKO 500, TKO 600, TKX, and T56 Magnum transmissions to dial in speedometer accuracy for specific tire and axle combinations. Calculate your correct tooth count based on your tire diameter and rear axle ratio - if your math points to 20 teeth, this is your gear.

Note that 21 tooth is the largest driven gear size available for these applications. If your calculations call for a larger tooth count beyond 21, reducing the drive gear size provides the necessary calibration adjustment. Compatible with all Ford T5, T45, Ford T56, TREMEC T56 Magnum, and all TKO and TKX variants.

What's Included

• One 20-tooth driven speedometer gear (black)

Key Features

• 21-tooth red gear follows Ford's factory color-coding system for manual transmissions
• Largest standard driven gear tooth count available for maximum speedometer correction
• Fits all TREMEC transmissions using Ford-style speedometer systems: T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum
• Precision molded nylon construction for smooth, quiet operation and long service life
• Direct drop-in replacement--no modifications required

Description

Swapping to a 5 or 6-speed TREMEC transmission changes your final drive ratio, which throws off your factory speedometer calibration. This 21-tooth red driven gear lets you recalibrate your mechanical speedometer to read accurately with your specific tire size and rear axle ratio combination--no electronic tuner required.

Ford has used a consistent color-coding system for manual transmission speedometer gears since the 1960s: 16-tooth wine, 17-tooth white, 18-tooth yellow, 19-tooth pink, 20-tooth black, and 21-tooth red. As the largest tooth count in the standard range, this red 21-tooth gear provides maximum correction for applications with taller tires or numerically higher axle ratios. Each tooth of difference adjusts your speedometer reading approximately 5-6%, so selecting the correct count is critical for accuracy.

The driven gear installs into the speedometer housing on the tailshaft of your transmission, where it meshes with the drive gear on the output shaft. TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum transmissions come from the factory with a 7-tooth drive gear, making this 21-tooth driven gear the correct starting point for common combinations like 3.55 or 3.73 rear gears with 26-inch or taller tires. Use a speedometer gear calculator with your actual tire diameter and axle ratio to confirm the correct tooth count for your build.

This gear is compatible with Ford T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum transmissions. The driven gear works with both cable-driven and VSS-equipped speedometer systems--just swap it into your existing housing.

What's Included

• 21-tooth red speedometer driven gear (precision molded nylon)

Key Features

• Secures driven speedometer gear for proper placement and operation in Ford T5 transmissions
• Direct replacement for original clips that have become brittle from heat exposure
• Essential component for automatic-to-manual conversions where no clip exists
• Compatible with all Ford T5 transmissions

Description

Clip-style speedometer gears require a retaining clip to lock the driven gear securely in the transmission housing, and this replacement clip delivers the secure fit your Ford T5 needs. Without a properly functioning clip, the driven speedometer gear can back out of the housing during operation, causing inaccurate speedometer readings and potential fluid loss.

Original retaining clips often become brittle after years of heat cycling in the transmission environment. If you're servicing your Ford T5, T-45, T-56, TKO/TKX, and Magnum speedometer gear or coming from an automatic transmission that didn't use a mechanical speedometer setup, a new retaining clip ensures your driven gear stays exactly where it needs to be. This is an inexpensive detail that makes the difference between a speedometer that works reliably and one that gives you trouble down the road.

This clip is the correct fitment for all Ford T5 transmissions and works with standard Ford-style driven speedometer gears. Keep one on hand whenever you're doing speedo gear service work.

What's Included

• One (1) retaining clip for Ford driven speedometer gear

Key Features

• 16-pulse Hall effect sensor delivers 16,000 pulses-per-mile output for accurate electronic speedometer calibration
• Direct bolt-in fitment for Ford gear drive TKO and TKX transmissions
• Three-wire design with included 10-foot pigtail harness for flexible routing and clean signal transmission
• Allen-head mounting bolt provides body clearance in tight transmission tunnel applications
• Uses standard T5 driven speedometer gears - no adapter required for low-profile installation.
• Compatible with Ford T-5, T-45, TR3550, 5-speed and 6-speed Ford T-56, and Magnum transmissions (requires Ford-driven speedometer gears and retainer clip)

Description

Swapping to a TKO or TKX five-speed means ditching the factory mechanical speedometer cable - but your electronic dash, engine management system, or cruise control still needs a reliable speed signal. This digital speedometer sensor plugs directly into the Ford-style VSS port on your TREMEC transmission's passenger-side tail housing and delivers a clean 16-pulse signal that works with the industry-standard 16,000 pulses-per-mile input most aftermarket speedometers and ECUs expect.

The three-wire Hall effect design provides a stable square wave output that won't degrade over long wire runs. The included 10-foot pigtail harness gives you plenty of length to route wiring cleanly through the tunnel and up to your dash or ECU, with a three-pin connector for easy hookup. The Allen-head mounting bolt is a thoughtful detail - standard hex-head fasteners can interfere with the sensor body in tight quarters, so this design ensures proper installation without clearance issues.

Beyond the TKO and TKX, this sensor also works with T-5z 5-speed and 6-speed Magnum transmissions when paired with Ford-driven speedometer gears and a retainer clip. Note that it does not fit Super Magnum, Magnum XL, or Magnum F transmissions - those use a different VSS configuration. If you're running a Dakota Digital, Classic Instruments, Auto Meter, or other programmable electronic speedometer, this sensor's 16,000 PPM output drops right into their standard calibration range.

Description

Swapping a TREMEC TKX or low-profile TKO into your '67-'73 Mustang or Cougar demands more than a generic crossmember. Shaker Hood cars and big block combinations require precise engine placement, and cutting up the tunnel to fit a modern 5-speed defeats the purpose of a clean swap. This MDL crossmember solves that problem by raising the transmission to the correct height in the tunnel without any floor modifications--keeping your firewall-to-bellhousing geometry intact and your sheet metal untouched.

Unlike bent-tube crossmembers that compromise on exhaust clearance, this laser-cut steel design is CNC bent for exacting fitment every time. The heavy-duty construction handles the demands of high-torque applications while the low-profile shape maximizes clearance for headers and dual exhaust systems. Convertible owners get the same bolt-in fit as coupe and fastback builders, and the design provides generous clearance for speedometer cable routing.

The black powder coat finish delivers lasting corrosion protection and a clean, professional appearance that matches the quality of your drivetrain upgrade. Complete sub-frame mounting hardware is included to simplify installation, and the crossmember also fits Ford AOD automatics for builders running automatic swaps.

Description

Modern manual transmissions feature complex internal components -- multiple gear sets, clutch packs and narrow oil passageways -- that demand a steady supply of high-quality fluid to function properly. Without it, wear and sludge formation can lead to reduced performance and even catastrophic failure requiring thousands of dollars in repairs. This AMSOIL Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid delivers the Dexron III specification required by TREMEC transmissions while providing protection that exceeds conventional fluids.

In both normal and severe service, this synthetic ATF resists wear to the transmission's valve body, gears, clutch plates and synchronizers, helping your TREMEC achieve long service life. The thermally stable formulation guards against the harmful effects of thermal breakdown in elevated heat conditions, while resisting heat-related evaporation and viscosity loss to keep internal components clean and protected.

Formulated with friction modifiers that promote fast, smooth clutch engagement, this fluid delivers responsive shift feel and efficient torque transfer. It remains fluid in sub-zero temperatures, resisting thickening and flowing quickly for reliable shifts during cold starts. The excellent low-temperature fluidity also maximizes fuel efficiency. Seal conditioners help guard against leaks at input shaft seals and other critical points.

TREMEC TKX transmissions use Dexron III or Dexron III/Mercon specification ATF fluid, and Dexron III ATF is also recommended for T56 and TR3650 models. The T5, TKO and TKX five-speed transmissions require approximately 2.75 quarts, while six-speed Magnum transmissions require approximately 3.45 quarts. TREMEC recommends changing fluid after the initial 500-1000 mile break-in period, then every 30,000 miles thereafter.

Description

Connecting your transmission to the driveshaft demands a slip yoke that can handle real power without becoming a weak link. This Neapco 31-spline forged steel slip yoke delivers the strength and precision fit required for Ford TKO, C6, and FMX transmissions, providing a direct-fit solution for street performance builds.

Forged steel construction eliminates the porosity and stress risers inherent in cast yokes. The result is a stronger, more consistent part that handles torque loads without cracking or deformation. The 1310 Series U-joint is rated for 400 lb-ft of continuous torque and 800 lb-ft short-duration loads--making this combination well-suited for street-driven cars producing up to approximately 500 hp, provided traction is managed with street tires rather than slicks.

Neapco's precision broaching process produces tight-tolerance spline fits that mate smoothly with the transmission output shaft. This accuracy, combined with reduced end play in the universal joint, minimizes driveline vibration and extends component life. The outside snap ring design allows for straightforward U-joint service when maintenance is eventually needed.

This slip yoke fits Ford transmissions with 31-spline output shafts, including the Ford TKO, C6 automatic, and FMX automatic. If your application requires higher torque capacity, consider upgrading to a 1330 or 1350 Series yoke and matching driveshaft components.

Description

Upgrading to a TREMEC transmission puts serious torque capacity in your drivetrain, but your existing slip yoke often becomes the weak link. TREMEC TKO, TKX, and Magnum transmissions all feature a 31-spline output shaft that requires a matching slip yoke to handle the increased power these transmissions deliver. This MDL slip yoke solves that problem with cast steel construction and 1350 series U-joint capacity.

The 31-spline output shaft on TREMEC performance transmissions uses the same diameter as Ford C6 automatics—a proven design that has been handling serious torque for decades. The 1350 series U-joint provides a 1-3/16" cap diameter and 3.625" overall width, delivering significantly more strength than the smaller 1310 series joints found in many factory drivelines. When you're pushing 600 lb-ft of torque capacity through a TKO or TKX, you need driveline components that can keep up.

This slip yoke is designed for Ford applications but works with any TREMEC transmission featuring the standard 31-spline output shaft, including the TKO-500, TKO-600, TKX, and T56 Magnum. Whether you're building a street machine that sees weekend abuse or a dedicated track car, this yoke provides the strength and reliability your upgraded drivetrain demands.
