New Owner, Transmission swap
I’m doing a manual swap in my 68 dart. The TKX would of been nice but the $6500 quote was a touch pill to swallow.. I managed to score a freshly rebuilt 833 4spd setup out of a 71 swinger that the owner wanted to swap to an auto.. I bought the odds and ends from brewers that I was lacking like pedals, floor hump and various hardware. I won’t be doing much interstate trips in it so I can live without the OD plus, I kinda wanted to OE with a lot of stuff.. keeps the guess work factor low. Now this swap still wasn’t what I would call cheap but a couple of grand cheaper than the TKX swap. That $6500 quote did include it all including the driveshaft that would arrive later after you measure for it. It always ends up being more than planned I swear lol
If an OD is a must, lots of people out there has used the T56 among other choices.. just need to be willing to fab a bit more to make it work. malwood makes a hydro kit that just adds the clutch pedal itself to your existing pedal assembly after ya cut down the brake pedal pad down to size.
Lots of possible routes to take.. in the end I’ll be glad I’ll give mine the 3 pedal solution despite the cost.
