Is it possible to rebuild a t-19 to a 5sp?

That can't be done to my knowledge.
To many parts would have to added or replaced or modified.

The T 19 case don't leave much room to add the gear, and the shifting mechanism would have to be completely modified.

That would make an awsome transmission though.

I agree the only stupid question is one you don't ask.

That would be one heck of a stout transmission. I do know that there use to be a kit to turn vw 5speeds into 6speed trannies. If only it was offered for a ford.

Well don't stop there!!! How did he do it?

There's always the option of a gear splitter.

i was thinking of trying to figgure out how to add a like two speed tranny to add a couple gears after fifth, i like to shift at about 1500 for best fuel economy, but it would be nice going down the highway cruising, especially with my 4.10s...
