Hi guys, I am a newbie and have just acquired my first mustang, a 91 GT with 5.0 and t-5. The trans keeps popping out of first, unless I downshift into 1st from a roll. Question is this: I got an extra trans that needs rebuilt with the car, and it is supposed to NOT have this problem, but I'm wondering, since I am going to do a rebuild, which one to rebuild? Any help would be appreciated. thanks.
You will never know which one is the best choice for a rebuild until you take them apart. See http://www.ttcautomotive.com/English/onlineorder/product.asp to download a FREE service manual for T5 or Tremec 3550 You will need the Adobe Acrobat viewer which is also a free download – http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html See http://www.hanlonmotorsports.com/ or http://www.ddperformance.com/index2.htm for parts A T5 rebuild kit with syncros, bearings and other small parts costs about $160. It does not include any gears or shafts. Hanlon also has a video on how to rebuild your T5 or Tremec. If they are out of stock see http://cartapes.com. It costs less than $20, and is worth every penny of it.
