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

Stock TKX shifter placement doesn't work for every build -- especially trucks where floor height, console clearance, and driver ergonomics demand a different solution. MDL's modified TREMEC TKX with integrated front mount short body shifter solves this by relocating the shifter stub into the optimal OE-style position specifically engineered for truck applications. This isn't a bolt-on aftermarket shifter -- it's a complete transmission upgrade where the shifter mechanism becomes an integral part of the unit, precision-machined and assembled at MDL's facility in Caldwell, Idaho.

The foundation is TREMEC's TKX platform -- the slimmest high-capacity 5-speed on the market, designed from the ground up for aftermarket applications. The close-ratio gear set (2.87, 1.89, 1.28, 1.00, 0.81) keeps the engine in its powerband during aggressive driving, while the 600 lb-ft torque capacity handles serious horsepower. Multi-cone synchronizers with sintered carbon/bronze hybrid rings deliver smooth, precise shifts even at 7,500 RPM. The compact end-loaded design fits most transmission tunnels without modification, and the three-piece ribbed aluminum housing provides the structural stiffness needed for high-stress applications.

Every internal component is built for durability: ASTM 4615 special-grade steel gears and shafts, a single-piece countershaft for increased torque capacity, oversized gear widths, and caged needle bearings in all gear positions. Tapered roller bearings on the input, output, and countershafts reduce noise and improve performance, while the rear mainshaft support bushing has been relocated closer to the gearbox for better support. Gaskets at all mating surfaces eliminate leaks and simplify installation.

This Ford-pattern TKX features a 26-spline input shaft, 31-spline output shaft, and includes both mechanical speedometer output (7-tooth drive gear) and electronic speedometer capability via a 17-tooth reluctor wheel with OSS two-wire analog sensor.

Description

When your truck shifter lands in the wrong spot, the whole driving experience suffers. This MDL-exclusive Ford TKX solves that problem with a custom straight up offset shift stub that repositions your shifter exactly where it belongs for perfect ergonomics. The slimline shift body clears stock shifter holes without cutting the floor, taking all the guesswork and hassle out of shifter placement. This is not available through TREMEC -- it is an MDL exclusive modification.

The TKX represents TREMEC's ground-up redesign of the five-speed platform, engineered specifically for the aftermarket. Enhanced gear sizes and revised double-lined carbon-fiber synchronizer packages eliminate the stiff, notched shifter feel of older designs while enabling safe shifts at 7,500 RPM and engine speeds up to 8,000 RPM. Durability comes from oversized gear widths, gaskets at all flanges, caged needle bearings in all gear positions, and a ribbed three-piece aluminum housing that delivers outstanding structural stiffness.

The compact end-loading case design provides superior clearance in narrow transmission tunnels -- TREMEC specifically engineered this case profile to fit tight classic car tunnels without floor modifications. Close-ratio gearing (3.27 first through 0.72 overdrive) delivers strong acceleration with highway-friendly cruising RPMs. The 31-spline output shaft accepts Ford C6-style slip yokes for straightforward driveshaft fitment.

Uses TREMEC High Performance Manual Transmission Fluid, Dexron-III, GM Synchromesh, Mobil 1 Synthetic ATF, or Pennzoil Synchromesh. Utilizes the Ford TKO bolt pattern for direct compatibility with Ford wide pattern bellhousings. Made in the USA.

Description

Running a Mopar big block in a build that needs a Ford-pattern manual transmission? The QuickTime RM-6074 bellhousing solves the Mopar-to-Ford adaptation problem while delivering SFI 6.1 certified containment protection. This steel bellhousing connects Mopar 383, 400, 413, 426 wedge, 426 Hemi, and 440 engines to Ford T5, TKO 500-600, TKX, and TR3550 transmissions - making it the go-to choice for Mopar-powered street machines, race cars, and engine swap projects requiring modern overdrive gearing.

QuickTime's spin-forming manufacturing process sets these bellhousings apart from competitors using rolled or stamped steel. The spun cone maintains perfect concentricity and parallelism throughout the RPM range, keeping your engine and transmission in precise alignment. This eliminates the accelerated drivetrain wear and power loss caused by bellhousing flex under hard launches. The high-grade steel work-hardens to over 80,000 PSI - more than double the strength of other steel bellhousings - while the 22-pound weight keeps rotating mass manageable.

SFI 6.1 certification makes this bellhousing mandatory for many sanctioning bodies in cars running 11.49 seconds or faster in the quarter-mile. The certification ensures the bellhousing will contain flywheel and clutch fragments in a catastrophic failure - critical protection when you're making serious power. The universal 4.850/4.910-inch transmission bore pattern accommodates multiple Ford-style manual transmissions without modification.

This is a universal-fit bellhousing designed for custom builds and is not vehicle-specific. Compatible with cable, mechanical, or hydraulic clutch release systems. Proudly built in the USA with patent-pending design features developed with input from OEM engineers, professional engine and transmission builders, racers, and hobbyists.

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.

What's Included

• Grade 8 steel transmission-to-bellhousing bolts (sized for steel bellhousing applications)
• Hardened steel washers
• Lifetime tech support from MDL

Key Features

• Lightened billet steel construction - 22 lbs with superior strength over cast iron
• 12.9-ounce external imbalance for cast crank 383/400 applications
• 130-tooth ring gear for small block Mopar starter compatibility
• 6-bolt crankshaft mounting pattern fits 1968-1971 engines
• Stress-crack resistant at high RPM and elevated clutch clamping forces
• Made in the USA

Description

Factory cast iron flywheels have a fundamental weakness in performance 383/400 builds: they crack under stress. This lightened billet steel flywheel delivers the external balance required for cast crank Mopar big blocks while eliminating the safety concerns that come with spinning cast iron at high RPM.

The 12.9-ounce external imbalance specification matches cast crankshaft 383/400 applications from 1968-1971 that require counterweight compensation at the flywheel. Unlike internally balanced engines that carry all rotating mass balance within the crankshaft assembly, externally balanced engines rely on precisely weighted flywheels and harmonic dampers to achieve smooth operation - making the correct imbalance specification critical for vibration-free performance.

Billet steel construction produces material significantly stronger than cast iron, with the structural integrity to handle engines operating above 6,000 RPM. Where cast iron develops stress cracks under repeated thermal cycling and high centrifugal loads, billet steel remains dimensionally stable and crack-free. This is essential for modified engines running aggressive clutch setups with higher clamping forces. The 22-pound lightened design maintains adequate rotating mass for smooth engagement and drivability while trimming unnecessary weight from the rotating assembly.

The 130-tooth ring gear configuration ensures compatibility with small block Mopar starters, while the 6-bolt crankshaft pattern provides direct fitment to '68-'71 383/400 engines. Engineered and manufactured in the USA for builders who demand reliability from every component in the drivetrain.

Kit Includes

• Lightened billet steel flywheel (22 lbs)
• 130-tooth machined ring gear
• 6-bolt crankshaft mounting pattern
• 12.9-ounce external balance weight

Key Features

• Lightened billet steel construction cuts rotating mass while maintaining durability for high-performance street and strip use
• Zero-balance design for straightforward engine assembly—no weighted flexplate calculations required

• 8-bolt crankshaft mounting pattern with 1/2" flywheel bolts for secure attachment to Hemi-style cranks
• 11-5/8" clutch bolt pattern accepts 10.5" pressure plates using 3/8" shouldered bolts
• Optimized 22 lb. weight balances reduced inertia with smooth street drivability
• Precision-machined and dynamically balanced
• Single-disc clutch compatible
• Made in the USA

Description

Big-block Mopar builds demand rotating components that match the engine's power potential. Factory flywheels carry excess weight that robs throttle response and slows engine acceleration. This MDL lightened billet steel flywheel solves that problem for 1963-1972 Mopar 426, 472, 528, and 540 cubic inch Wedge and Hemi engines, delivering reduced rotating mass without sacrificing the durability these high-torque combinations require.

The billet steel construction provides the strength needed for aggressive launches and high-RPM operation, while the lightened design shaves pounds from the rotating assembly. At 22 lbs., this flywheel hits the ideal balance point—light enough for noticeably quicker throttle response, heavy enough for smooth engagement and predictable low-speed drivability. The zero-balance configuration eliminates the complexity of externally balanced setups, simplifying engine assembly.

Engineered specifically for 8-bolt Hemi-style crankshafts, this flywheel uses 1/2" flywheel bolts for secure mounting. The 11-5/8" clutch bolt pattern accommodates modern 10.5" diaphragm pressure plates with 3/8" shouldered bolts, making it compatible with popular performance clutch kits. The 130-tooth ring gear ensures reliable starter engagement.

Whether you're building a numbers-matching Hemi restoration, a stroker street machine, or a weekend bracket racer, this flywheel delivers the precision fit and performance you need. Made in the USA.

Description

The 1970-1972 Mopar 440 HP engines - both 4-barrel and six-pack configurations - present a unique balancing challenge. These engines came factory-equipped with heavy connecting rods that require external balancing via weighted components on the harmonic damper and flywheel. Bolting up a neutral-balance flywheel creates vibration that gets worse with RPM. This MDL lightened billet steel flywheel provides the precise 6.5oz external imbalance these engines demand.

Machined from premium billet steel, this flywheel tips the scales at just 22 pounds - a substantial reduction from factory cast iron units. Less rotational mass means your big block can change RPM faster, improving throttle response and making aggressive downshifts feel crisp. The 130-tooth ring gear works with standard Mopar starters, while the 11-5/8-inch bolt pattern accepts 10.5-inch clutch assemblies for serious holding power in high-horsepower applications.

The 6-bolt crankshaft mounting flange uses 7/16-inch bolts for secure attachment, and the pressure plate side is pre-drilled for 3/8-inch shouldered bolts. This combination of precision machining and correct balance weight creates a flywheel that handles high-RPM punishment while maintaining smooth operation throughout the powerband.

This flywheel is specifically engineered for 1970-1972 440ci RB engines with either 4-barrel or six-barrel carburetion that came factory with heavy connecting rods and external balance requirements. If your engine has been rebuilt with modern lightweight rods and internal balancing, this is not the correct flywheel for your application. Made in the USA with the quality and precision your Mopar big block deserves.

What's Included

• One lightened billet steel flywheel with 130-tooth ring gear
• Precision machined for 6.5oz external balance
• Pre-drilled for 7/16-inch flywheel bolts and 3/8-inch shouldered pressure plate bolts

Description

When you've built serious power but need a clutch that remains civilized on the street, the McLeod RST twin disc clutch kit delivers an economically priced solution for high-horsepower Ford applications. This kit solves the fundamental problem of single-disc clutches that either slip under power or become unbearably harsh for daily driving - without requiring you to purchase a new flywheel.

Capable of handling 800 horsepower, this clutch manages extreme power while remaining street-friendly. The twin-disc design spreads clamping loads across two organic friction surfaces, reducing pressure plate spring tension compared to equivalent single-disc setups. Organic-faced twin sprung hub friction discs provide smooth engagement with soft pedal effort and excellent release characteristics, making this ideal for enthusiasts who demand performance without sacrificing driveability.

The small ring adapter configuration works with Ford 157T flywheel bolt patterns. The 26 x 1-1/8" input spline accommodates transmissions like the TKO-500/600, TKX, and T56 Magnum. McLeod's patent-pending adapter ring ensures proper pressure plate positioning and prevents the binding issues common with universal adapters. This kit requires your existing flywheel, which must be properly resurfaced before installation. Flywheel surface must have a coarse texture from a stone grinder - if you run your fingernail across it, the texture should catch your nail.

Compatible with Ford applications using 10" Long bolt patterns with 8mm hardware for 10.5" bellhousing configurations. Note: This clutch is designed for high-horsepower street use and is not intended for competition environments. Made in the USA.

What's Included

Description

When your build is pushing serious power, a stock clutch becomes the weak link. The McLeod RXT Street Twin solves that problem with a twin-disc design rated for 1,000 HP—enough capacity for supercharged or turbocharged Ford builds while maintaining genuine street manners. The ceramic-faced friction discs deliver slightly aggressive engagement without the harsh, chattery behavior of full-race clutches, and the smaller 9.687" disc diameter requires less diaphragm pressure, resulting in pedal effort that's actually lighter than stock.

The twin-disc design doubles your friction surface area compared to single-disc clutches, distributing clamping loads across four contact surfaces instead of two. Each solid-hub ceramic disc provides superior heat resistance and consistent torque transfer under hard launches and high-RPM shifts. McLeod's patent-pending adapter ring system bolts directly to your existing flywheel, eliminating the need for a dedicated flywheel purchase and keeping costs down without sacrificing performance.

This kit is configured for Ford applications using 26 x 1-1/8" input shafts and small-diameter flywheels (157-tooth) with the 10.4" metric bolt pattern. The Blanchard-ground floater plate incorporates multiple drive straps to minimize gear rattle and noise—a critical feature for street-driven cars. Compatible with both cable and hydraulic actuation systems.

Requires proper break-in: 500-750 miles of stop-and-go city driving (1,200-1,500 clutch actuations) before any wide-open-throttle or dyno use. Always resurface the flywheel with a coarse stone-ground finish before installation to prevent chatter. Pilot bearing and throwout bearing not included—replace both during installation. [VERIFY: Title/description mentions both 10.4" and 10.5" metric—confirm correct bolt pattern designation]

Key Features

• Self-lubricating oilite bronze construction - oil bleeds out under heat for consistent lubrication without external grease
• 1.816" outer diameter x 0.670" inner diameter - sized for Mopar crankshafts with outer landing pilot bore
• Heavy-duty sintered bronze material impregnated with oil lubricant for extended service life
• Provides full support of the transmission input shaft snout for proper drivetrain alignment
• Wear item - replace with every clutch service to maintain optimal performance

Description

A worn or missing pilot bushing is the hidden cause of rough shifting, clutch chatter, and accelerated transmission wear. This heavy-duty oilite bronze pilot bushing delivers the precise input shaft support your Mopar drivetrain needs to operate smoothly. Sized at 1.816" OD x 0.670" ID, this bushing is designed specifically for Mopar crankshafts machined with the larger outer landing pilot bore - not the standard smaller-diameter pilot hole found in most factory stick-shift cranks.

Oilite bronze is the professional's choice for pilot bushings because of its self-lubricating properties. Unlike cheap brass or non-impregnated bronze bushings that require external lubrication, oilite is a sintered bronze material with interconnected pores that hold oil within the metal itself. As the bushing heats up during operation, oil bleeds out of the pores to maintain a consistent lubricating film between the bushing and the input shaft snout. When the drivetrain cools, the oil is reabsorbed back into the bronze - no grease required. In fact, applying grease to an oilite bushing can actually seal the pores and defeat the self-lubricating mechanism.

The soft bronze material also protects your transmission. If the bushing wears, it sacrifices itself rather than damaging the input shaft - unlike needle roller bearings that can score and destroy an input shaft when they fail. This bushing installs with a press fit for secure, concentric mounting. For easiest installation, freeze the bushing beforehand to contract the metal slightly. Replace the pilot bushing with every clutch service, even if it appears to be in good condition - it's cheap insurance against drivetrain problems.

Compatible with Mopar applications requiring 1.816" OD x 0.670" ID pilot bushing specifications. Verify your crankshaft's pilot bore dimensions before ordering.

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.

This is the shift lever that defined an era. The Hurst chrome-plated round bar stick was the upper bolt-on stick originally supplied from Detroit factories for vehicles that were "Hurst Equipped." The chrome round bar design, bolt-on construction, Hurst logos, and white ball knob were the identifying features that signified a Hurst shifter was installed at the factory as original equipment. For years, these OEM round bar sticks were never sold to the general public - they were only available if you bought a vehicle optioned with a Hurst shifter from the dealer.

Now this OE-style stick is available directly from Hurst, with all the great features exactly as originally designed. Built from forged steel with high-quality chrome plating, this shift lever delivers the authentic look and durability that made Hurst "America's Number 1 Shifter Company." The iconic "HURST" name is stamped directly into the stick, providing the period-correct detail that separates genuine Hurst hardware from generic alternatives.

The 11.21-inch height with 3.75-inch setback creates the classic curved geometry that puts the shift knob exactly where it belongs for smooth, confident shifts. This lever is particularly popular for 1969 Camaro and Firebird builds, fitting factory console installations as well as period-correct Muncie 4-speed shifters. Modern builders will appreciate that it also works perfectly with TREMEC TKX, TKO, and T56 Magnum transmissions paired with Hurst-pattern shifter mechanisms.

The universal 3/8"-16 TPI thread accepts all Hurst shift knobs and T-handles, giving you complete control over the final appearance. Whether you're completing a concours-level restoration or building a restomod that honors classic muscle car heritage, this chrome round bar shift lever delivers the authentic Hurst experience.

Key Features

• 5/8" barrel-style connector matches factory Ford speedometer interface
• 63" overall length accommodates driver-side routing required by T5, TKO, and TKX transmissions [VERIFY: Product description states 63", key_features field states 59" - confirm correct length]
• Designed specifically for '67-'68 Mustang and Cougar five-speed and AOD conversions
• Compatible with Ford T5, TKO, TKX, and AOD transmissions
• Also fits Falcon conversions using MDL front-shift tailhousing or front-shift T5 packages

Description

When you swap from a factory four-speed to a modern T5, TKO, or TKX five-speed, the speedometer cable routing changes completely. These TREMEC transmissions position the mechanical speedometer drive on the driver's (left) side of the case, meaning your original cable won't reach - and trying to force an ill-fitting cable creates binding, premature wear, and inaccurate readings.

This application-specific speedometer cable solves that problem for '67-'68 Mustang and Cougar owners. The 5/8" barrel-style connector interfaces correctly with the Ford speedometer head, while the 63" overall length provides the reach needed for proper left-side routing without binding or excessive slack. The result is a clean installation that keeps your factory speedometer functioning accurately with your new overdrive transmission.

Beyond T5 and TKO/TKX manual swaps, this cable also works for AOD automatic conversions in '67-'68 Mustang and Cougar applications. Falcon owners converting to five-speed can use this cable when paired with MDL front-shift tailhousings or front-shift T5 packages. If you're upgrading to modern overdrive and want to keep your factory speedometer working, this is the cable that makes it happen.

What's Included

• Speedometer cable with 5/8" barrel connector (63" length)

Key Features

• 63" cable length engineered specifically for T5, TKO, TKX, and AOD transmission swaps
• OEM-style clip connection mates directly with factory mechanical speedometer

• Drop-in solution for five-speed and AOD conversions

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

• 83" overall length - application-specific sizing for 1965-1968 Mustang to Toploader routing

• OEM-style construction - maintains period-correct appearance and function for mechanical speedometers
• Direct replacement fitment - eliminates speedometer inaccuracy from worn or damaged cables

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.

• Direct fit for Ford T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum transmissions
• Precision-molded construction for smooth, reliable operation

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.

• 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)

• 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

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.

• Manufactured by Neapco--a leading OEM and aftermarket driveline supplier

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.
