Description

Need overdrive performance in a tight engine bay? The TREMEC Super Duty T5 is the answer. As the smallest and lightest transmission in the TREMEC lineup, it fits where others simply cannot - making it the go-to choice for classic car retrofits, hot rods, and kit cars where space is at a premium. At just 75 lbs dry weight, you get 5-speed capability without the bulk of larger transmissions.

This Z-specification unit represents a significant upgrade over the original equipment T5s found in '83-'93 Mustangs. Where the '83-'84 non-World Class units ran a 2.95 first with 0.63 overdrive but suffered from weaker synchronizers, and the '85-'93 World Class versions switched to a 3.35 first with 0.68 overdrive, the Super Duty combines the best of both worlds: the preferred 2.95/0.63 gear set with World Class internals including carbon fiber synchro rings on gears 1-4, tapered carrier bearings, and main needle bearings. The steel front bearing retainer and Cobra-style pocket bearing eliminate common failure points that plagued earlier designs.

The 2.95 first gear provides strong acceleration off the line, while the deep 0.63 overdrive significantly reduces highway RPM - cutting noise, heat, and wear while improving fuel economy. This transmission safely handles 330 ft-lb of torque and is suitable for street cars up to 450 horsepower on DOT-approved tires. It serves as a direct replacement for 1983-1993 V8 Mustangs and is ideal behind any small-block Ford engine, or as an upgrade for inline-four and six-cylinder applications. Requires 2.75 quarts of ATF Dexron III fluid.

For 1994-1995 5.0L V8 Mustangs or 1994-1998 3.8L V6 Mustangs, see part number MD-552-0251-94 for the SN95 version with longer input shaft.

Description

When you're running deep into the 11s or faster, track officials aren't going to let you stage without an SFI-certified bellhousing. The QuickTime RM-6065 delivers that certification while solving another critical problem: bellhousing flex. Lesser bellhousings made from rolled or stamped steel distort under load, causing accelerated wear on your input shaft, pilot bearing, and clutch assembly. QuickTime's patented spin-forming process creates a bellhousing that maintains perfect engine-to-transmission alignment throughout the entire RPM range.

The difference is in the manufacturing. QuickTime cones are spun rather than rolled or stamped, resulting in the most dimensionally stable bellhousing on the market. This high-grade steel construction work hardens to over 80,000 PSI - more than twice the strength of conventional steel bellhousings - while keeping weight down to just 22 pounds. The compact design provides clearance for headers without requiring tunnel modifications.

The RM-6065 connects 6-bolt small block Ford engines (289, 302, 351W, 351C) to Ford-pattern T5 (standard-length input shaft), TR3550, TKO 500/600, or TKX transmissions. The universal 4.850/4.910-inch transmission bore accommodates all these gearboxes, while the 157-tooth flywheel compatibility and 10.5-inch maximum clutch diameter handle serious power.

Description

Running a classic Ford small block and want flexibility in your clutch setup? This dual-pattern cast iron flywheel eliminates the one-flywheel-per-clutch-size limitation that plagues so many builds. The machined face accepts both the 10" long-style diaphragm clutches found in vintage applications and the 10.4" metric diaphragm clutches used on high-performance '79–'01 Mustangs — so you can start with a stock-style clutch and upgrade to a higher-capacity unit later without pulling the flywheel.

Cast iron construction delivers the rotating mass needed for civilized street manners: smooth idle, progressive engagement, and excellent heat absorption during stop-and-go driving. The 157-tooth ring gear mates with the smaller-diameter bellhousings and starters common on '64–'68 Mustangs and other early Ford small block applications. Precision machining ensures a flat, true friction surface that improves clutch performance and reduces vibration.

The 28oz external imbalance is correct for pre-1981 Ford Windsor and Cleveland engines — 260, 289, 302, 351W, and 351C. (Post-1981 5.0L engines use a 50oz imbalance; verify your engine's balance before ordering.) The 6-bolt crank pattern with 7/16" hardware provides a secure connection to the crankshaft flange.

Compatible with 3-speed, 4-speed, and T5 5-speed manual transmissions. While cast iron flywheels work for light motorsports use, understand the RPM and load limits — billet steel offers better stability for sustained high-RPM or competition applications.

Description

When Ford switched the 302 to the 5.0L designation in 1981, they also changed the external balance from 28oz to 50oz. That means every '81-'95 5.0L Windsor needs a flywheel with the correct counterweight to maintain proper engine balance and eliminate vibration. This cast iron flywheel delivers exactly that - the right balance for your late-model small-block Ford, with the 157-tooth ring gear that mates to standard small-block bellhousings and starters.

The 10.4" metric clutch pattern is a Ford-specific design that uses alignment pins rather than shouldered bolts to locate the pressure plate. These equalizing pins ensure precise concentricity between the pressure plate and flywheel - critical for smooth clutch engagement and even wear. The metric pattern accommodates modern diaphragm-style pressure plates with 8mm hardware, making it compatible with factory and aftermarket clutch assemblies designed for '83-'95 Mustangs and other 5.0L applications.

Cast iron provides the strength and thermal stability needed for street duty, absorbing and dissipating heat through repeated clutch engagements without the hot spots that can develop on lighter materials. At 19 lbs, this flywheel maintains enough rotational mass for smooth idle and progressive engagement - the kind of drivability you want in a daily driver or weekend cruiser. The 6-bolt crankshaft pattern bolts directly to the factory crank flange with no adapters or modifications required.

Overview

Factory cast iron flywheels have their limits. At high RPM or under aggressive clutch clamping loads, they can develop stress cracks that compromise both performance and safety. This lighten billet steel flywheel replaces that weak link with a material that's fundamentally stronger—billet steel resists cracking and remains stable under the demands of performance driving.

The "lighten" designation refers to strategic material removal that reduces rotational mass without sacrificing structural integrity. At 19 lbs, this flywheel strikes the sweet spot between weight reduction and street manners—light enough for improved throttle response and quicker revs, yet heavy enough to maintain smooth idle characteristics and prevent the stalling issues common with ultra-lightweight aluminum units. The result is a flywheel that feels responsive on throttle tip-in while still delivering civilized behavior in traffic.

Dual clutch bolt patterns machined into the friction surface eliminate fitment guesswork, accepting both 10" and 10.5" pressure plates. The 157-tooth ring gear and 28oz external imbalance match OE specifications for pre-December 1982 small block Fords, ensuring proper starter engagement and crankshaft balance. This flywheel fits Ford 289, 302, and 351W Windsor engines, plus Ford Racing 363ci and 427ci stroker crate motors that use the 28oz balance specification.

Six-bolt crankshaft mounting provides secure attachment, while included clutch alignment pins ensure proper disc positioning during installation. Every flywheel is precision-machined from US-milled steel and manufactured in the USA.

Description

Factory cast iron flywheels become the weak link when you push serious power through a 5.0L Windsor. Cast iron is prone to stress cracking under repeated high-RPM clutch engagement, and a cracked flywheel at speed is a catastrophic failure waiting to happen. This lightened billet steel flywheel delivers the strength needed for high-performance street builds and competition use while shaving weight to improve engine response.

Billet steel is considerably stronger than cast iron and remains free of the stress cracks that plague factory flywheels under heavy use. The lightened design reduces rotational mass compared to standard-weight flywheels, allowing faster throttle response on acceleration and quicker RPM drop on deceleration - a noticeable improvement whether you're rowing through gears on the street or chasing lap times. The 50oz external balance matches factory 5.0L engine specifications for 1981-1995 applications, ensuring smooth operation with no vibration.

The dual clutch pattern provides flexibility in clutch selection, accepting both 10.5" metric diaphragm pressure plates and 10" long-style setups. Metric alignment pins come pre-installed to ensure proper clutch disc centering during installation. Note that diaphragm clutches require metric pressure plate bolts (MD-403-2003 or MD-403-2003ARP), while the 10" long pattern uses 5/16" bolts (MD-403-2004).

Engineered for Ford small block Windsor engines with 157-tooth starter ring gear applications. Fits all 1981-1995 Ford 5.0L engines requiring 50oz external balance. Proudly made in the USA using US-milled billet steel.

Description

Ford's '86-'95 Mustang 5.0L introduced the metric clutch system, and that unique bolt pattern stops plenty of builders in their tracks. This MDL Superior clutch set solves the fitment puzzle with a complete kit engineered specifically for the 10.4" metric bolt pattern with integral dowel pins found on these applications.

The diaphragm-style pressure plate sits at the heart of this kit, providing even clamping pressure across the entire friction surface. Unlike long-style clutches that rely on coil springs, the diaphragm design eliminates hot spots and maintains consistent pedal feel throughout the disc's service life. The organic/organic friction material delivers the smooth, progressive engagement that daily drivers and weekend cruisers demand--no grabby on-off engagement that makes stop-and-go traffic miserable.

The sprung hub construction dampens torsional vibration between the engine and transmission, protecting synchronizers and reducing gear rattle at idle. With a 225 lb-ft torque rating, there's headroom for bolt-on modifications while maintaining streetable manners. The 10 x 1-1/16" splined hub fits stock 10-spline input shafts found in factory T-5 transmissions.

Compatible with 1986-1995 5.0L applications using cable-actuated throwout bearings. Every Superior clutch kit is hand-assembled at MDL's Caldwell, Idaho facility and inspected before shipping. Made in the USA.

Description

This Superior clutch set delivers the ideal balance between holding power and street driveability for Ford applications using the 10.4" metric bolt pattern. The hybrid facing configuration puts Kevlar on the flywheel side for increased grip and heat resistance, while the organic facing on the pressure plate side ensures smooth, progressive engagement without the chatter associated with aggressive racing clutches. This combination makes the clutch ideal for Performance Street Plus applications where you need 300 lb-ft torque capacity without sacrificing daily-driver manners.

The engineering behind this facing combination is deliberate. Kevlar provides approximately twice the service life of standard organic materials while maintaining excellent heat dissipation characteristics. Pairing it with organic on the opposite side moderates engagement behavior, giving you confidence at stoplights and in parking lots while still delivering when you need to put the power down. The sprung hub design further smooths engagement and absorbs drivetrain shock.

MDL's Superior line clutches are hand-assembled in-house rather than mass-produced overseas. Every disc is double-riveted and inspected for exacting tolerances before it goes in the box. The included cable-style throwout bearing, pilot bearing, and alignment tool mean you have everything needed for a complete installation. The diaphragm pressure plate uses 8mm metric fasteners with three alignment dowels in the Ford 10.4" metric pattern.

Description

When you need more holding power than stock but refuse to give up street manners, the Superior Kevlar/Organic clutch set delivers. This dual-material design pairs Kevlar on the pressure plate side with steel-backed organic facing on the flywheel side--a deliberate engineering choice that exploits the strengths of both materials. Kevlar's coefficient of friction actually increases with temperature, meaning the harder you drive it, the better it grips. The organic side provides the smooth, progressive engagement that keeps this clutch civilized in traffic.

Rated at 450 ft-lbs for Performance Street Plus applications, this clutch handles the demands of modified 5.0L engines, bolt-on power adders, and weekend track days without the harsh pedal feel or chatter of full-race setups. The sprung hub dampens engagement shock that would otherwise stress your transmission and driveshaft, while the diaphragm-style pressure plate delivers consistent clamping force through the full range of pedal travel.

The 10.4" metric pattern uses 8mm pressure plate bolts--a critical distinction from the SAE-thread 10.5" pattern found on GM and some Ford applications. This kit is purpose-built for Ford applications requiring a 1-1/16" x 10-spline input shaft and cable clutch actuation. Every Superior clutch is hand-assembled at MDL's Caldwell, Idaho facility and double-checked for accuracy before it leaves the shop.

Description

Finding a quality clutch kit for Ford's 10.4" metric bolt pattern that actually meets the tolerances a performance build demands isn't easy. Mass-produced clutches cut corners on QC, leaving you to discover runout or engagement problems after the bellhousing is bolted up. The MDL Superior clutch line eliminates that gamble -- every disc is hand-assembled at MDL's Idaho facility and double-checked for accuracy before it ships.

This kit uses full Kevlar facings on both the flywheel and pressure plate sides of the disc. Kevlar delivers aggressive initial bite without the chatter and harsh engagement of ceramic compounds, making it ideal for performance street and open-track applications where you still want a streetable pedal. The sprung hub absorbs drivetrain shock loads and dampens harmonics that solid hubs transmit straight to the transmission.

The 10-spline x 1-1/16" hub matches factory Ford T-5, 3550, TKO, and TKX input shafts. The included throw-out bearing features a cable profile that also works with hydraulic actuation systems -- critical flexibility when you're upgrading from a factory cable setup or running a hydro conversion. The metric pressure plate bolts up with 8mm fasteners and alignment dowels to Ford 5.0L HO flywheels from '86-'95 applications.

Performance Proven means this clutch has survived the rigorous demands of racing on and off the track. Made in the USA and backed by a 1-year free-from-defect warranty.

Description

The importance of pressure plate bolts in racing or high-performance street applications cannot be emphasized nearly enough. These fasteners play a key role in both the performance and safety of a vehicle. Factory pressure plate bolts are notorious weak points that can stretch or fail under power, leading to clutch slippage, pressure plate distortion, or catastrophic failure. When you're building serious power, the last thing you want is substandard hardware compromising your drivetrain.

ARP engineered these High Performance Series bolts specifically for 1986-1995 Ford 302 and 351 Windsor applications. Each bolt is forged from premium-grade 8740 chromoly steel and heat-treated prior to thread rolling and machining, achieving a nominal tensile strength of 180,000 PSI. The application-specific design ensures optimum grip length for your Ford V8, eliminating the guesswork that comes with generic hardware.

The 8mm x 1.25 threading matches factory specs while delivering vastly superior strength. Each bolt features a hex head design with 10mm socket access for easy installation and removal. The black oxide finish provides corrosion resistance while maintaining a clean appearance under the hood. The large diameter, low profile design increases clamping force compared to stock bolts, reducing the risk of pressure plate flex under high-load conditions.

Fits all 1986-1995 Ford applications equipped with 302 or 351W engines, including Mustang 5.0L, F-150 trucks, Bronco, E-Series vans, and Crown Victoria. Kit includes six pressure plate bolts with washers for complete replacement of all factory fasteners.

Description

Fox-body and SN95 Mustang clutch cables are notorious for clearance headaches, binding against headers, and developing a heavy, draggy pedal feel as they wear. This MDL Lightfoot Series external hydraulic slave cylinder kit eliminates those problems by converting your 1979-1993 Mustang's aluminum T5, TKO, or TKX bellhousing from cable operation to reliable hydraulic actuation.

The slave cylinder mounts directly to the bellhousing fork opening behind the original cable fork, pushing the fork instead of pulling it for proper clutch release. This rear-push design provides exhaust clearance that clutch cables simply cannot match, making it compatible with long-tube headers while keeping the cylinder accessible for installation and service. The adjustable pushrod allows you to dial in precise clutch engagement without pulling the bellhousing.

Engineered as a complete system, this kit pairs seamlessly with MDL LF Series master cylinder kits for a fully integrated hydraulic clutch conversion. The 0.75-inch bore slave cylinder delivers consistent pedal feel and full clutch release when matched with the appropriate master cylinder. No bellhousing removal is required - the bolt-on pivot socket works with your existing OEM cable fork, and the easy-access bleed port simplifies initial bleeding and future maintenance.

This kit fits 1979-1993 Ford Mustangs equipped with aluminum T5, TKO, or TKX bellhousings and works with both factory clutch pedals and OE reproduction aftermarket pedals. Uses DOT 3 or DOT 4 brake fluid. Made in the USA with lifetime technical support included.

Description

Converting from cable-operated to hydraulic clutch actuation has never been easier for '79-'93 Mustang T5 applications. The LF Series External Hydraulic Slave Kit solves the chronic problems of cable binding, inconsistent pedal feel, and header clearance issues that plague Ford's original cable setup. This engineered solution delivers the smooth, linear pedal feel that hydraulic systems are known for while eliminating the guesswork of clutch cable routing and adjustment.

The kit's design centers around transmission-case mounting, which provides several key advantages over bellhousing-mounted alternatives. By securing the slave cylinder to the solid T5 case rather than the bellhousing, the system maintains alignment regardless of bellhousing tolerances. The cylinder pushes from the rear of the OEM cable fork through an adjustable push rod, providing both header clearance and easy clutch engagement adjustment. The 0.75-inch bore delivers the precise hydraulic volume needed for proper T5 clutch actuation without over-travel or binding.

The stainless steel braided hydraulic line features -4AN aluminum fittings for leak-free connections and long-term durability. An easily accessible bleed port simplifies system maintenance and initial setup. The kit utilizes your existing OEM cable fork with a bolt-on pivot socket, eliminating any permanent modifications to the transmission or bellhousing. When paired with MDL LF Series master cylinder components, this system transforms clutch operation from a maintenance headache into a smooth, reliable performance upgrade.

Description

When you're building or maintaining a Fox-Body Mustang with a manual transmission, using the correct clutch fork isn't optional - it's critical. This clutch lever is specifically engineered for 1979-1993 Mustangs and delivers the proper pivot geometry required for clean, consistent clutch engagement with cable-style bellhousings.

The Fox-Body clutch fork positions at the 9 o'clock location when viewed from the rear of the bellhousing - a distinctly different orientation than the SN95's 7 o'clock position. This isn't just a cosmetic difference: the lever length and pivot points are purpose-built for Fox applications. Using the wrong fork creates severe cable angle problems, premature cable wear, and inconsistent clutch feel. SN95 forks are longer with different pivot spacing and cannot be substituted.

This fork works equally well whether you're running the original cable actuation or upgrading to an external hydraulic slave cylinder. When paired with external hydraulics, the fork operates as a pusher instead of the traditional cable pull - eliminating the stretching, snapping, and binding issues that plague factory clutch cables over time. The result is smoother pedal effort and more reliable engagement, especially with high-performance clutches.

Compatible with 1979-1993 Mustang applications running TREMEC T5, TKO, or 1993 & earlier Windsor T56 transmissions. Requires a compatible cable-style small-block bellhousing for proper fitment.

What's Included

• One (1) clutch fork/lever for 1979-1993 Fox-Body Mustang

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.

• 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.

What's Included

• 16-pulse digital speedometer sensor with three-pin connector
• 10-foot three-wire pigtail harness
• Allen-head mounting bolt

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.

What's Included

• One (1) quart bottle AMSOIL Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid (Dexron III compatible)
