Description

The TREMEC T56 Magnum TUET16884 solves the torque limitation that plagued the original T56. Introduced in spring 2009, the Magnum delivers a massive 700 lb-ft torque capacity through substantially increased gear face widths and 2-piece laser-beam welded gear construction. Based heavily on the TR-6060 found in factory supercars like the ZR1 Corvette and ACR Viper, the Magnum combines TREMEC's OEM design and manufacturing technologies with the most popular features of the TKO 5-speed.

This TUET16884 features the wide-ratio gear set with 2.97 first gear and close-ratio 0.80/0.63 double overdrive—ideal for street-driven builds that need strong acceleration through the lower gears while maintaining relaxed highway cruising RPM. The 85mm center distance and bolstered one-piece countershaft resist distortion under load, while redesigned shift forks and fine-tooth synchronizer angles deliver incredibly short, low-effort throws with crisp engagement even at high RPM.

Triple-cone synchronizers on gears 1 through 4 and double-cone synchronizers on 5th, 6th, and reverse handle aggressive shifts with ease. The fully reversible TKO-style die-cast aluminum shifter provides smooth, positive shift action with two stock shifter positions, plus built-in mid-shift provisions under the inspection cover for simple forward shifter placement in bench-seat applications. Dual speedometer outputs accommodate both mechanical and electronic gauges, and the reverse lockout solenoid and reverse light switch are built in.

Configured for Ford applications with a 26-spline input shaft and 31-spline output shaft. Compatible with cable release clutch systems via the included hardened steel guide tube. The extensively modified transmission case prevents leaks under high-stress conditions and increases overall power-handling capabilities.

Description

When your Ford build demands more than a 5-speed can deliver but you refuse to compromise on shift quality, the TREMEC T56 Magnum answers the call. This close-ratio TUET11010 variant keeps RPM drops tight between gears - ideal for road racing, autocross, and spirited street driving where staying in the powerband matters. The 2.66 first gear pulls hard off the line, while the double overdrive (0.80 fifth, 0.63 sixth) drops highway RPMs dramatically for quiet, fuel-efficient cruising.

The Magnum is TREMEC's aftermarket version of the TR-6060 - the same transmission found in factory supercars like the Corvette ZR1 and Viper ACR. The 85mm center distance provides a larger gear contact patch and stronger case than the original T56, supporting 700 lb-ft of torque capacity. Triple-cone synchronizers on gears 1-4 and double-cone synchronizers on 5-6 and reverse deliver accurate, smooth shifts even at high RPM. The fully reversible die-cast aluminum shifter provides incredibly short, low-effort throws with crisp engagement.

This Ford-pattern Magnum requires a separate bellhousing and pairs with V8 Ford engines from small-block Windsors to modular 4.6/5.0 Coyote applications with the appropriate bellhousing. The hardened steel guide tube accepts standard mechanical clutch fork designs, making it a straightforward swap for classic Mustang builds. Dual speedometer provisions handle both electronic and mechanical gauges, while the built-in reverse lockout and reverse light switch simplify wiring.

Description

When TREMEC introduced the T56 Magnum in 2009, it solved the problem builders had been chasing for years: how to get bulletproof six-speed strength with OEM-level refinement in an aftermarket package. Based heavily on the TR-6060 - the same transmission found in factory supercars - the Magnum combines TREMEC's current OEM design and manufacturing technologies with the most popular features of their TKO 5-speed. The result is the smoothest-shifting, strongest, and most versatile 6-speed aftermarket transmission TREMEC has ever produced.

This TUET11011 features the wide-ratio 2.97 first gear, making it ideal for street-driven builds that want strong off-the-line acceleration without sacrificing highway drivability. The 0.74 fifth and 0.50 sixth gears deliver true double overdrive, dropping RPM for relaxed cruising and improved fuel economy. Spring-loaded ball-type synchronizer inserts reduce friction and eliminate notchy shifting, resulting in incredibly short, smooth shifts with crisp engagement.

The engineering upgrades over the original T56 are substantial. Face widths of the gears have been significantly widened to handle more torque, while redesigned one-piece shift forks with permanently mounted shift links eliminate the float and incomplete engagement that plagued earlier designs. The 85mm center distance provides the robust gear geometry needed to handle 700 lb-ft reliably. Multiple shifter locations accommodate different builds, and the reversible shifter assembly allows changing shift lever position simply by flipping the shift cover.

Compatible with Ford modular engines using the appropriate bellhousing (sold separately). Uses Dexron III ATF - no exotic fluids required. Made in the USA by TREMEC.

Description

Mating a classic Ford FE big-block to a modern TREMEC T56 Magnum 6-speed demands more than a generic adapter -- it requires precision engineering that keeps your drivetrain aligned under full power. The QuickTime RM-8040-7 delivers that precision with a 7 o'clock fork position specifically designed for Ford-spec T56 transmissions using mechanical or 4.6 cable clutch forks.

QuickTime's signature spun-cone manufacturing process sets these bellhousings apart from anything made with rolled or stamped steel. The cone is spun from high-grade steel that work-hardens to over 80,000 PSI -- more than twice the strength of competing steel bellhousings. This process also delivers the pinpoint concentricity and parallelism that lesser manufacturing methods simply cannot achieve. The result: your engine and transmission stay in perfect alignment through the entire rpm range, eliminating the accelerated drivetrain wear caused by bellhousing flex.

This bellhousing fits all Ford FE engines including the 352, 390, 427, and 428, and mates them to Ford-pattern T56 and TREMEC Magnum 6-speed transmissions. It accepts standard 12-inch clutches with 184-tooth flywheels and works with both cable and hydraulic clutch actuation. The 5.340-inch depth and 20-pound weight keep the package compact while the included full engine plate and Grade 8 mounting hardware ensure rock-solid installation.

SFI 6.1 certification makes this bellhousing legal for sanctioned drag racing, and the patent-pending design incorporates input from OEM manufacturers, engine builders, transmission builders, racers, and hobbyists. Built 100% in the USA.

What's Included

• QuickTime RM-8040-7 steel bellhousing with 7 o'clock fork position

• Designed specifically for steel aftermarket bellhousings
• Metric fasteners with proper thread pitch for TREMEC T56 Magnum mounting holes
• Eliminates hardware sourcing headaches during your Ford 6-speed swap

Description

Aftermarket steel bellhousings typically ship with bellhousing-to-engine-block hardware only, leaving you to source the bolts needed to attach the transmission itself. This MDL hardware kit solves that problem for Ford T56 Magnum installations by providing the exact fasteners required to mount the transmission to any steel aftermarket bellhousing.

The kit is purpose-built for steel bellhousing applications. Steel bellhousings have different material thickness than aluminum units, requiring specific bolt lengths for proper thread engagement without bottoming out. Using the wrong hardware can result in insufficient thread engagement or bolts that bind before the transmission face seats flush. This kit takes the guesswork out of the equation.

Compatible with all steel aftermarket bellhousings that accept the Ford version of the TREMEC T56 Magnum 6-speed transmission. If you're pairing your Magnum with an aluminum bellhousing, you'll need the AL version of this kit instead, as aluminum bellhousings use different bolt lengths. This kit covers transmission-to-bellhousing mounting only; bellhousing-to-engine-block hardware is typically supplied by the bellhousing manufacturer.

What's Included

• Complete set of transmission-to-bellhousing mounting bolts [VERIFY: exact bolt count, thread size, and grade]

Key Features

• Billet steel construction delivers superior strength and crack resistance over cast iron at high RPM
• Zero balance (0.0 oz) for internally balanced Ford FE 390, 427, and 428 engines
• 184-tooth ring gear for proper starter engagement
• 30-pound optimized weight balances reduced rotating mass with strong launch capability
• 11-inch clutch bolt pattern compatibility (Long and Big Block Chevy Offset patterns)
• Six-bolt crankshaft mounting configuration
• Precision-machined friction surface resists heat checking
• Made in the USA

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.

The Kevlar/ceramic friction surfaces provide a higher coefficient of friction than standard organic materials, allowing the same clamping force to hold significantly more power--rated at 650 ft-lb of torque capacity. This makes it ideal for high-horsepower street builds, drag racing launches, and road racing where aggressive engagement is critical.

The ceramic face is engineered for racing applications where quick engagement and extreme heat resistance are essential. MDL's ceramic formulation includes iron content that actually increases friction as temperatures rise, making this clutch stronger under punishment rather than weaker. The Kevlar backing provides smooth street manners while the ceramic face delivers race-proven bite.

The 11.5" long pattern diaphragm pressure plate is specifically designed for Ford Big Block Change Over (BBCO) applications. Every Superior clutch disc is hand-built in MDL's Idaho facility to exacting tolerances, then double-checked for accuracy before shipping. The 26-spline x 1-1/8" sprung hub accommodates common Ford transmission input shafts while absorbing driveline shock for smoother engagement.

This kit is designed for hydraulic release systems--throwout bearing is not included. Includes a Big Block Ford pilot bushing and alignment tool for proper installation. Made in the USA and backed by MDL's 1-year warranty.

What's Included

• 11.5" long pattern diaphragm pressure plate
• 11" Kevlar/ceramic clutch disc with 26-spline x 1-1/8" sprung hub
• Big Block Ford pilot bushing
• Clutch alignment tool
• 1-year warranty

Key Features

• Extended 0.9" height with 0.400" step - designed for applications requiring additional input shaft engagement depth
• 1.850" outer diameter x 0.670" inner diameter - precision-machined to fit Ford FE big block crankshaft pilot bore
• Premium bronze construction with oil-impregnated material - self-lubricating design requires no external grease
• Direct fit for Ford FE engines (332, 352, 360, 361, 390, 406, 410, 427, 428)

Description

Ford FE big block engines require a larger-diameter pilot bushing than most other Ford V8s - a detail that trips up builders unfamiliar with the platform. This extended-height bronze bushing delivers the correct 1.850" OD to match the FE crankshaft's pilot bore while providing an extended 0.9" depth with a 0.400" step for applications where additional input shaft engagement is required, such as certain Toploader or aftermarket transmission conversions with longer input shafts.

Manufactured from premium-grade bronze alloy, this bushing is oil-impregnated for self-lubricating performance. Unlike roller or needle bearings that can shed rollers and damage input shafts, bronze bushings provide reliable, long-lasting support with zero maintenance. The precision-machined 0.670" inner diameter centers the transmission input shaft snout, preventing clutch chatter and ensuring smooth engagement.

Pilot bushings are wear items and should be replaced with every clutch service - even if the old bushing looks fine. For removal, stuff bread in the center of the bushing and drive it out. This old-school trick works better than grease and eliminates cleanup. For installation, freeze the bushing first to ease fitment into the crankshaft bore. Never apply grease to a bronze pilot bushing - the oil-impregnated material provides all the lubrication needed.

Fits all Ford FE big block V8 engines including 332, 352, 360, 361, 390, 406, 410, 427, and 428 cubic inch variants in manual transmission applications where the extended bushing height is required.

What's Included

• One bronze pilot bushing - 1.850" OD x 0.670" ID, 0.9" extended height with 0.400" step

Description

Converting your '61-'66 Ford F-Series to modern hydraulic clutch actuation typically means fighting heavy pedal pressure and firewall interference. Traditional hydraulic conversions bolt a 3/4" or 7/8" bore master cylinder directly to the pedal with a short 1" stroke--this creates excessive pedal effort, requires mounting the cylinder higher than the stock clutch rod hole, and causes interference with the firewall and pedal assembly. The LF Series solves all of these problems with a precision-engineered linkage system that transforms how hydraulic clutch actuation works in your classic truck.

The engineering breakthrough is MDL's mechanical pedal linkage. Instead of mounting the master cylinder directly to the pedal, this linkage creates leverage that matches pedal travel with the master cylinder's long 1.4" stroke. The result is dramatically reduced pedal effort while using the stock clutch rod hole location. The 0.700" bore paired with that long stroke generates sufficient fluid volume to actuate most aftermarket external slave cylinders and internal hydraulic release bearings without requiring excessive pedal travel.

The remote silver billet aluminum reservoir mounts separately on the firewall, eliminating the bulk of integral reservoir designs and providing a clean, professional installation. The system uses standard DOT 3 or 4 brake fluid and includes MDL's exclusive One-Man-Bleeder kit for straightforward bleeding without a helper.

The stainless steel braid resists expansion under pressure—a critical factor in hydraulic clutch performance. Unlike rubber lines that balloon slightly under load, braided stainless maintains consistent internal volume for immediate, predictable clutch actuation. The clear plastic outer coating shields the braid from road debris and corrosion while preserving the polished stainless appearance gearheads expect in a quality engine bay.

This is the same 30-inch hydraulic line included in MDL's LF Series slave cylinder kits, proven across thousands of transmission swaps from mild street builds to extreme-duty track cars. Straight -4AN female fittings on both ends provide universal compatibility with hydraulic clutch systems, master cylinders, and slave cylinders across Ford, GM, and Mopar applications. Whether you're completing a TREMEC five or six-speed swap or upgrading your existing hydraulic clutch setup, this line delivers the durability and pedal feel your build demands.

Description

Upgrading to a Lokar shift lever on your TREMEC-equipped build but don't want to give up your favorite shift knob? This thread reducing insert solves the compatibility problem. Lokar shifters use 3/8-24 threads at the top of the lever, while many OEM and aftermarket shift knobs--including popular universal 16mm-threaded styles--won't thread directly onto that pattern. This insert bridges the gap, letting you mate a 16mm-threaded knob to your new Lokar lever.

The insert threads into the internal 16mm threads of your shift knob, presenting external 3/8-24 threads that mate directly to the Lokar lever. The included jam nut cinches down against the lever to lock the assembly in place, preventing the knob from backing off during spirited driving or repeated shifting. It's a small piece of hardware that makes a big difference when you're mixing and matching components to get exactly the look and feel you want in your build.

This reducer is a common solution for classic Jeep CJ5, CJ6, CJ7, and CJ8 later models, as well as 1936-1946 and 1967-1972 Chevy truck builds where Lokar shifters are installed on TREMEC T5, T45, T56, TKO, or TKX transmissions.

Description

Dead speedometers and inaccurate odometers almost always trace back to one failure point: the speedometer cable. When the inner cable breaks, binds, or wears out, your dash becomes useless for monitoring speed and mileage. This 83" speedometer cable delivers the exact length and connection type your 1965-1968 Mustang needs for proper Ford Toploader 4-speed interface.

The 5/8" screw-type connection threads directly into the Toploader's speedometer drive housing on the passenger side - exactly as Ford designed it. Mustang Toploaders feature the speedometer gear access hole on the passenger side of the transmission, and this cable is engineered specifically for that configuration. The driven gear mounts on the end of the cable and inserts into the transmission, where the drive gear on the output shaft spins it to turn your speedometer.

Unlike generic 80" cables that require awkward routing and extra securing points under the car, this 83" cable provides the correct length for clean, factory-style installation. The routing follows the passenger side of the transmission tunnel, maintaining appropriate bend radii that prevent binding and ensure smooth speedometer operation. When paired with the correct driven gear for your rear axle ratio and tire size, this cable restores accurate speed and mileage readings to your Mustang's instrument cluster.

Engineered specifically for Ford Toploader 4-speed transmissions in 1965-1968 Mustang applications. Direct replacement for original equipment cables that have failed due to age, wear, or damage. OEM style for mechanical gauges.

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.

• 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

• Tin-plated brass terminals for corrosion resistance and reliable signal transmission
• Compatible with Ford VSS connector style used in 1987-1995 Mustangs
• Works with Ford and GM TREMEC Magnum two-wire analog OSS output
• Fits Ford TKO/TKO 500-600, TKX, and T45/3650 transmissions
• Two-wire design matches OE Ford VSS signal format

Description

When you install a TREMEC transmission in your build, you need a clean way to send speed data to your electronic speedometer or ECU. This harness provides the critical link between your transmission's output speed sensor (OSS) and your vehicle's existing Ford-style VSS wiring. It's designed specifically for the two-wire analog speed sensor output found on Ford and GM TREMEC Magnum transmissions, as well as Ford TKX, TKO, and T45/3650 units.

The terminals are constructed from tin-plated brass, which resists corrosion and maintains solid electrical contact even in harsh underhood environments. This matters because intermittent speed signals cause erratic speedometer readings and can throw off ECU calculations that rely on vehicle speed data. The Ford VSS connector style was used across a wide range of 1987-1995 Ford vehicles, making this harness the right choice when you're tying into an existing Ford wiring harness or EFI system from that era.

This harness is the simple, direct solution for builders running electronic speedometers with TREMEC 5- and 6-speed transmissions. Whether you're completing a resto-mod Mustang with modern gauges or wiring a GM-pattern Magnum into a classic muscle car, this connector eliminates guesswork and custom splicing.

What's Included

• Electronic speedometer harness with tin-plated brass terminals
• Ford VSS-style two-wire connector

Key Features

• Microprocessor-controlled lockout system prevents accidental reverse engagement above approximately 5 MPH
• Six-wire harness with integrated inline fuse for complete installation
• Universal fitment for all T56, T56 Magnum, and TR6060 transmissions
• Weather-resistant construction - interior mounting recommended for maximum longevity
• Two dedicated wires for solenoid output control
• Two wires for VSS (vehicle speed sensor) signal input
• Switched power and ground connections included
• Eliminates need for brake light switch or manual button workarounds
• Factory-like speed-based operation without requiring an OEM computer

Description

When you swap a TREMEC T56, T56 Magnum, or TR6060 into a classic or performance build, you lose the factory computer's ability to control the reverse lockout solenoid. Without proper control, the transmission becomes prone to inadvertent grinding into reverse gear while attempting to shift into 5th - a common problem since these gears are located very close to each other in the shift pattern. Manual workarounds like wiring to the brake light switch create their own problems: you can step on the brake at highway speed and still accidentally engage reverse.

This Reverse Lockout Control Module solves the problem with intelligent speed-based control. The heart of this module is a microprocessor that continuously monitors vehicle speed through the VSS signal. At low vehicle speeds, the reverse lockout solenoid is energized, retracting the blocking pin and allowing you to shift smoothly into reverse. Above approximately 5 MPH, the module de-energizes the solenoid, locking out reverse gear access and preventing costly transmission damage from an accidental shift. This creates factory-like operation without the need for an OEM PCM or ECM.

The six-wire harness simplifies installation with dedicated circuits: two wires for switched power and ground, two wires for VSS signal input from the transmission speed sensor, and two wires for solenoid output. The integrated inline fuse protects the circuit. While the module features weather-resistant construction, mounting inside the vehicle interior is recommended for maximum longevity. The system requires no special programming or calibration - wire it up and it works.

This module is essential for any T56-family transmission swap where the factory computer control is unavailable. It controls the reverse lockout solenoid found on all Borg Warner and TREMEC T56, Magnum, and TR6060 transmissions, restoring the safety and convenience of proper reverse lockout operation that these transmissions were designed to have.

What's Included

• Reverse lockout control module with microprocessor
• Six-wire harness with color-coded leads
• Inline fuse
• Installation instructions
• MDL lifetime technical support

Key Features

• Integrates reverse lockout control, dual VSS outputs, and reverse light wiring into one harness
• Speed-based reverse lockout: locked above 4 MPH, unlocked at 0-3 MPH (user-adjustable via app)
• Dual independent speed sensor outputs with customizable pulse counts (default: 40-pulse and 16-pulse)
• Bluetooth-enabled epoxy-sealed controller mounts to existing VSS bolt
• Square wave output: -5V to +5V standard, auto-shifts to 0V to +10V for positive-only ECM inputs
• Replaces up to 5 separate components previously required for full functionality
• Free iOS and Android app for complete signal customization
• Compatible with Classic Instruments, Auto Meter, Dakota Digital, and GM Connect & Cruise packages

Description

Converting to a TREMEC 6-speed Magnum means wiring three critical electrical functions: the vehicle speed sensor, reverse lockout solenoid, and reverse lights. Traditionally, this required up to five separate components—signal converters, lockout controllers, pigtails, and individual harnesses—all needing integration. The Bowler 3-in-1 Harness consolidates everything into a single pre-wired solution with an intelligent, Bluetooth-configurable controller.

The T56 Magnum and TR6060 place reverse gear dangerously close to 5th gear, creating real potential for accidental engagement at highway speed. The reverse lockout solenoid uses a spring-loaded pin to resist shifts into reverse when de-energized. Most DIY wiring ties the solenoid to the brake light switch—a flawed approach since braking at speed still allows reverse engagement. This harness uses speed-based control like the OE system: the lockout engages above 4 MPH and releases only when the vehicle slows to 0-3 MPH. These thresholds are fully adjustable through the free smartphone app.

The dual speed sensor outputs solve one of the most frustrating wiring challenges in modern builds. Your ECM may need a different signal than your electronic speedometer or cruise control, forcing multiple converters. This harness provides two completely independent outputs—each calibrated separately with any pulse count and ratio you need. The outputs generate a square wave signal from approximately -5V to +5V, and automatically shift to 0V to +10V when your ECM requires a positive-only input. Works seamlessly with popular gauges from Classic Instruments, Auto Meter, and Dakota Digital.

The compact epoxy-sealed controller mounts directly to the VSS output using the existing bolt—no additional mounting hardware or locations needed. Power comes from a switched +12V circuit with ground to the negative battery post or engine block. This harness fits Ford & GM Standard T56 Magnum and Ford TR6060 transmissions. Note: Does not work with 2019 and newer Mustang ECM (Wavelength system).

What's Included

• Protective covering shields wiring from heat, abrasion, and moisture
• Designed for use with MDL's MD-700-0100-2 reverse lockout control module
• Fits Ford and GM T56 applications

Description

The TREMEC T56 utilizes a reverse lockout solenoid to prevent accidental shifts into reverse while attempting to engage 5th gear--a critical safety feature because reverse and 5th are located very close to each other on the shift pattern. When the solenoid isn't energized, spring pressure against the shift rail makes reverse engagement difficult. When powered, the solenoid retracts the pin, allowing smooth entry into reverse. The problem? Classic cars and restomod builds lack the factory PCM logic to control this solenoid, leaving builders to either muscle through the lockout or rig up makeshift solutions.

This 6-foot harness provides the factory-style snap-in connector that mates directly with the T56's reverse lockout solenoid. The extended length gives you the flexibility to route wiring cleanly through the transmission tunnel, up through the firewall, and to your control module location without splicing or extending. The protective covering shields the conductors from exhaust heat, sharp edges, and underbody moisture--critical for a harness that lives in a harsh environment.

This harness is designed to work with MDL's MD-700-0100-2 reverse lockout control module, which monitors vehicle speed via the VSS signal and automatically energizes the solenoid below approximately 5-10 MPH for easy reverse engagement, then de-energizes it at higher speeds to prevent accidental shifts. The result is OEM-style lockout behavior without relying on makeshift brake-light-switch wiring or manual override buttons. Fits all TREMEC T56 6-speed transmissions in Ford and GM applications.

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.
