ok what the hell

[dylan020]

ok, switching my car to a 5spd....exactly what tranny will fit...87-93? 94-95 specific? im getting tired of people trying to pass 87-93 trannys off on me without answering if it will fit...please help

[Sendero]

If I recall correctly, the 94-95 T-5's have a longer input shaft. So to answer your question, no a 87-93 will not work in a SN-95 chassis. You'll also need a 94-95 specific bellhousing too.

I think Jase had a fox t5 in this 94 for a while. Not sure what was done to make it work in his car though.

[slvrbullit]

In order to make a fox t-5 fit you will need a fox bell housing.

[dylan020]

sooooo you CAN use a fox, but you just need a longer input shaft?

[94five0]

yup, shifter, jus sits a lil further in the tunnel.. ran it for a couple of weeks when my t5 took a shit..no difference. except the grinn from gettin sideways for the first time in a new 5spd..

[Craig K.]

You can check D&D Performance, they have a lot of info on T-5's

Also they have the 94-95 rebuilt for $995. I think this has some upgrades in it, go check it out.

[dylan020]

damn, these things are hard as hell to find used! already checked corral.net and stangnet.com....NOTHING! lol

[qkjuicedpony]

just use a fox t5 and bellhousing and get a driveshaft spacer from UPR.the shifter will sit a little forward but you can make yourself a custom handle to set it back.

[QWKSNKE]

Why not keep it simple and just switch out the input shaft if he gets a fox t-5 :shrug:

:agree:
That would be the correct way to do it. FYI, you can get a brand new input shaft and bearing retainer for about $100 and they're easy as hell you change out.

. . . just remeber to swap the bearing race and shim into the new retainer. ;)

If you put a fox T5 in the car, with the SN95 bellhousing, it will work for a few miles, but the input shaft does not sit in the pilot...it ends up just floating out there; not good. Thus, the shaft gets alot of lateral loading and eventually the input bearing and that first gear will crap out.

Either use an SN95 bellhousing with an SN95 transmission, or a fox bellhousing with a fox transmission and the driveshaft spacer.

I'm pretty sure everyone knows that -- and as far as I can tell, nobody has suggested doing that.

What they are saying is to use a t-5 and bell housing from a fox. It would work fine, except that the shifter would sit futher forward.

[coupe]

I know. Just explaining why it ends up having trouble. ;)

[QWKSNKE]

just changing the input shaft would be so much simpler.

[dylan020]

ok so...fox t5 with fox bellhousing with the right input shaft will do it?

if the sn95 t-5 is hard to find....

Use a fox t-5.
Sn95 bell housing
sn95 input shaft

[dylan020]

ok thanks lee! I sent you a PM

[Italian LX]

Use a fox t-5.
Sn95 bell housing
sn95 input shaft
He would also need an SN95 bearing retainer.

[Craig K.]

If you can't find a used SN95, just check the D&D site, they have them

[dylan020]

ok so i found a 95 gt 5spd in NC for 400 that comes with bell & shifter...good deal or pass?

[QWKSNKE]

good deal if it is a good tranny

[dylan020]

well turns out he has everything needed for a swap...he says the condition is "ready to use". I guess I just need to wait for the price on everything, im thinking around 7-800?

[mrmustangconvert]

ill trade you my sn-95 trans for that fox trans

[dylan020]

i dont have a fox trans, just asking if it would work if i got desperate to use one

[mrmustangconvert]

ahh ok

[dylan020]

update: got the tranny, shifter, pedals, bell, and crossmember for $525! Exactly what else do I need to get??

[ncontt]

clutch cable and clutch maybe...flywheel, and pilot bearing.

[joker]

Is the quadrant part of the pedal assembly?

Make sure the bell-housing has the pivot ball -- although, if it is well-worn, it would be a good idea to go ahead and replace it. You'll also need the clutch fork in addition to what has already been mentioned above.

Also, a lower and upper shift boot

[dylan020]

ok upper and lower shift boots, clutch cable and clutch, flywheel, and pilot bearing, quadrant, and pivot ball possibly

[mrmustangconvert]

well since we are talking about this subject in hand, i have a 84 fox with a 351 going in it. im putting a 5 speed in it and it is a sn-95 t-5, is there anything i might need to know when im puting this thing in? im hearing about input shaft problems while converting to a fox t-5 to a sn95 mustang, but will the problem will be the same for my conversion, because im fixing to finish this thing in the next couple of weeks. just need to know before i start spending money on stuff that i dont need.

if you don't swap the input shaft you will have to use a sn95 bellhousing

[dylan020]
