Tremec TKX Ford 5-Speed Transmission 2.87 First Gear .68 OD – TCET17765

Compact high-torque manual transmission engineered specifically for aftermarket Ford performance builds.

The Tremec TKX platform provides modern drivetrain strength with improved transmission tunnel clearance, high-RPM shift capability, and proven durability for street performance, restomod, and pro-touring applications.

This ratio configuration offers strong launch characteristics with reduced cruising RPM, making it a balanced solution for high-horsepower vehicles that require both acceleration performance and highway drivability.


Transmission Configuration

  • Ford TKX case pattern
  • 26-spline input shaft
  • 31-spline output shaft
  • Single overdrive 5-speed design
  • Compact low-profile aluminum housing

Gear Ratios

1st — 2.87
2nd — 1.89
3rd — 1.28
4th — 1.00
5th — 0.68


Torque & RPM Capability

  • Rated for 600 lb-ft torque capacity
  • Supports engine speeds up to 8,000 RPM
  • Designed for performance shifting near 7,500 RPM

Design & Performance Engineering

  • Three-piece aluminum case construction increases structural rigidity
  • Compact end-loaded architecture improves transmission tunnel clearance
  • Multi-cone synchronizers provide smoother high-RPM gear engagement
  • Internal three-rail shift system improves shift precision and durability
  • Wide gear face width increases gear life and torque capacity
  • Alloy steel gears and shafts manufactured from ASTM 4615 material
  • Caged needle bearings reduce friction and gear end-play
  • Optimized gear geometry helps control noise, vibration, and harshness
  • Integrated reverse light and cruise control safety switch provisions

Fitment & Installation Advantages

  • Multiple shifter location provisions for improved interior positioning
  • Designed to fit many performance applications with minimal tunnel modification
  • Ford-specific case configuration for proper drivetrain alignment
  • Integrated transmission mount pattern provisions

Technical Specifications

Transmission Type — 5-Speed Manual Overdrive
Torque Capacity — 600 lb-ft
Input Shaft — 26 spline
Output Shaft — 31 spline
Case Construction — Aluminum 3-piece housing
