Borg Warner T85N question...
I have a T85N trans with the yoke bolted to the rear. It has a tag that reads C5T3C. Can any one shed some more light on what I gots? I'm in the process of adapting it to my '55 F100. A little machining to open the bell to fit the input shaft cover, finding or making a longer pilot bearing to make up for the shorter input shaft, etc.

Thanks for the info! Are parts for these as hard to find as I imagine? Are any of the parts from my t86/r10 interchangable?
Shoulda asked this question in the 1964/72 forum.

I'd have to look up the T-86 O/D parts and compare with T-85. I'm not that far away from Riverside, if you'd like to do a comparo.

Thanks for the offer Bill. I grew up in Whittier and La Mirada. Might drop you a line sometime when I'm visiting the folks. Tomorrow I'm planing to pull the overdrive off of the t85 and have a look see inside before I mount it up. Think I might pull the t86/r10 apart too, just to see if anything broke in the OD. My t86 is 12v also so I'll be holding on to the solenoid and gov.
