TREMEC TKX 5 Speed Manual Transmission

This is the all-new TREMEC TKX 5-speed overdrive manual transmission. The TKX replaces the legendary TKO 5-speed and features major shift quality improvements in a more compact size for better tunnel fit. Models for Chevy, Ford, Mopar, and many more.

The TKX is conservatively rated for 600ft-lbs of torque with oversized gears and five integrated shaft supports to withstand higher shock loads. New hybrid synchros allow shifts up to 8000rpms, a vast improvement over the outgoing TKO.

The new TKX carries over familiar features like multiple shift positions, mechanical and electronic speedo outputs, and a reverse light switch.

GM and Ford models offer several gear set options to match your project goals. All models are compatible with mechanical or our hydraulic clutch release systems.

Eastside Motorsports has been working with TREMEC to bring you complete, bolt-in solutions to install the TKX in your muscle car, track car, or street rod.

 

• The TKX has 600 lb.-ft. of torque capacity and is capable of engine speeds of 8,000 RPMs with shifts at 7,500 RPMs. It is available in multiple gear ratio configurations (See chart below).
• Designed for multiple applications with three shifter locations. Compact, end-loaded design provides clearance in most transmission tunnels without floor modifications.
• Increased case strength with three-piece aluminum housing provides outstanding structural stiffness (includes main case, intermediate plate and rear extension). Gaskets at all flanges simplifies installation and eliminates fluid leaks.
• Superior shift-ability through use of multi-cone synchronizers and hybrid synchronizer rings made of sintered bronze and carbon
• Noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) minimized with gear layout to best control stress levels. All gears supported by caged needle bearings to reduce end play on the gears.
• All gears and shafts made from special grade steel (ASTM 4615) providing increased torque carrying capacity.
• Equipped with a high-performance short-throw billet aluminum shifter that isolates road noise, while providing clean, crisp shifts.
• Robust design with internal three-rail shift system and steel shift forks.
• Wide gear width increases gear life and torque capacity.
• 26-spline input shaft with a 31-spline output shaft for added strength.
• Built-in reverse light switch and cruise control safety switch.
• Separate GM and Ford case patterns and input configurations. Integrated GM and Ford transmission mount patterns.
