1969 changing 3 speed auto to T5 transmission

[Jacob22 0]

Hello, I was wondering if anybody had some info. I am converting my 1969 Mustang 302 with the 3 speed auto transmission to a t5 transmission. I recently bought a 92 mustang for the transmission and for parts. I was wanting to know what I would need for conversion and also if the foot assembly would work. Thanks

Reach out to Modern Driveline.  They will have everything you need with different options on the clutch engagement.

I second that suggestion. 

Along with a search on here. Lots of information to be had. Helped me in my conversion.

Welcome to the forum. With enough mods just about anything can be made to fit. But you're gonna wanna use the 69 pedals cuz you need the pivots and master cylinder push rod to be at the correct ratio. Just some fyi, manual and power brake pedals and hangers are different.

I would recommexnd doing the Mustang Steve hanger bearing mod.

Welcome to the forum. I did the same conversion to my 69 Coupe. I used the T-5 trans out of a 1987 Mustang, purchased a new clutch pedal, had the pedal hanger converted to a roller bearing (much smother operation) & installed a Modern Driveline hydraulic clutch conversion kit, with a Hurst shifter. Here are links to the stuff I used on my conversion.

Interested in this. I have a C4 so I’m guessing it is more complicated

Ed, it should not be any more complicated then what I did to my 69 Coupe which was originally equipped with a C-4 auto even though my car was an almost bare shell when I acquired it. I also installed a hydraulic clutch  & had a roller bearing conversion performed on the pedal hanger.
