Has anyone installed one of the newer TKX 5 speeds. Did you have to enlarge the tunnel? Is it much smaller than the TKO's. I am considering installing one.
Sorry to hear of your issues. I read in some of the literature that the engine and tranny are supposed to be 2 degrees down from horizontal in back and the pinion angle 2 degrees down in front.My Uncles put a TKO kit in their 1970 Challenger and they had to put spacers in to lift the back of the trans to get the vibration to go away.
I put a TKO in my 73 Cuda in 2009, mine was already manual and did not have to modify the tunnel at all.Has anyone installed one of the newer TKX 5 speeds. Did you have to enlarge the tunnel? Is it much smaller than the TKO's. I am considering installing one.
Mine is stock k-member and stock motor mounts, using a Milidon oil pan with no issues rubbing. I haven’t read every post but, dial indicating the bell housing is a must. If you did not.I was under the impression I would be able to get the tail of this up to create a better angle for the drive shaft. Also the center link rubs on the oil pan. Finally just had a channel welded into the oiil pan to give it room.
