The AOD drive shaft will work on a T5, but it does have a balance ring on the transmission end of it. To use the AOD crossmember you need to grind off the welds and slide the crossmember to the center of the mount tubes.

T5 crossmember

the million dollar question..... does anyone know what the length is? and where it is measured from. i have an aluminum one and i think its for a fox body.... 45.5" from center to center of u-joint holes.

100 bucks takes it
