Its the same as the au one that came out in the 90's 1998 to be exact and they've still got those bloody hinges on the out side. The hinges on my 1967 falcon ute were built into the tailgate so why cant they do it now more than 40 years later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donating Members 337 Member For: 17y 9m 16d Gender: Male Posted 19/02/08 06:20 AM Share Posted 19/02/08 06:20 AM guys,ive been doing some reading on the new ford, and read on the new gearbox they are going to use in the T, which I think is the tremec T36060, same as used in the dodge viper RT/10 and corvette in the states. This new car is going to have launch control, in a manual, does anyone know more about this box or read up on this option or know anything based upon it? it would be interesting to see if it could be used on our current T's!

Hopefully better vision, cos the bulge is shocking to see around! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shift is shorter and the individual gears are thicker - so judging by how tuff the T56 is, this thing should be just about unbreakable!
