Default Tko transmission

I am thinking about using this as my trans upgrade. Will i need anything besides the clutch. I am not sure if i will need a new driveshaft, bellhousing, etc..

damn you make a lot of threads..lol Which tko did you have in mind? You are going to need a bellhousing for sure. I'm using a Lakewood SFI bellhousing on my TKO500, but if you get the 600 I believe you need the larger driveshaft yolk.

If (when) I need a new tranny I will be getting the TKO-600 TCET4617 with the 2.87:1 first gear. I have 3.73s in the back and have reached the point with engine power that the 3.38:1 first gear ratio of the stock tranny is a great annoyance, as it is too low...

Yea it is kinda annoying, especially cus I have 4.10 gears. I spin pretty good in 1st and 2nd even from a slow roll and on Nitto DRs. If I were buying a new tko I would get that one too.

Yeah, you'll need a 31 spline yoke. I got mine from LRS. I was able to use my stock d/s though. I had heard that your cars require a d/s spacer.
