Tri-ax install

AnglicoGT98 · January 19th, 2008, 01:49 PM

So I got the Steeda tri-ax from my local mustang shop. I was talking to them about the install and they said that I should keep the shift stops in. HMUSN - I know you were saying that the t-56 has its own internal stops. But I don't know what to do and I don't want to screw up the tranny....please help!

take the 4 bolts out, remove stock shifter, clean RTV silicone resedue off the tranny, apply light layer of new RTV sylicone, set new shifter in place, and torque to about 10FT LBS. not too tight, you can and will strip the trans.

gsjohnson · January 19th, 2008, 01:52 PM

Remove the stops. HMUSN is correct, they are not necessary. I removed mine on my MGW.

KingChronic · January 19th, 2008, 01:53 PM

yeah, and remove the shifter stops screws completely

AnglicoGT98 · January 19th, 2008, 01:55 PM

GS - but you have a GT. They have a different tranny than a 03 Cobra. But I do believe you.

Chronic - You didn't mention the shift stops on your install instructions...lol.

00vabchgt · January 19th, 2008, 01:59 PM

as far as i know, only the T45 needs the stops on the shifter due to lack of internal stops like on the 3650. i think the T56 also has internal stops...

You are correct, I missed that. I'm not sure which trany would com in the 03 Cobra. I just pulled out my MGW installation guide and they show that the 3650 and the T56 have internal stops and the supplied shifter stops should be removed.

00vabchgt · January 19th, 2008, 02:22 PM

the 03 Cobra has a T56 with internal stops...

yes, the 03 has a T56 6 speed with internal stops, and you have a T3650 5 speed with internal stops.

stroker408 · January 19th, 2008, 02:45 PM

AnglicoGT98 · January 19th, 2008, 03:12 PM

I don't know do you?

If you do, take them out. If you have them in and they are not adjusted just right then you can actually damage the tranny.

KingChronic · January 19th, 2008, 03:15 PM

the 4 bolts on the shifter arent, but the 4 bolts on the little dust cover provide resistance the whole time they come out.

the dust boot i beleave uses little 7, or 8MM bolts, and then the shifter uses a 13MM.
