I have a Toploader 4 speed out of a 1969 mustang 390 4v car. I purchased it for my ‘64 custom 500 to do a manual swap. I didn’t realize I needed a longer tail shaft. So up for sale is a Toploader with the data tag reading RUG-AD1 with close ratio, 28 spline. I am in need of a toploader with a longer tail shaft (27”) ideally with an HEH-D tag. Any other help or suggestions would be appreciated.

64Custom, I got your private message,  and sent you a reply regarding my Galaxie Toploader

I have a C8OA-7515-D clutch fork for big shaft input , originally for a 68-69 428CJ.
Would this also work without modifications on a 1970 with a 429 and toploader with original 429SCJ bellhousing ?
I realize ford made a different fork for the Boss 429 , but how was it different from a 69 428CJ fork?
Length? specific bend? clip location?

thanks

This transmission is still available.

I recently saw a set of 427 pistons on craigslist los angeles , dont recall if they were original ford or TRW ?

I used to frequent  both this site and the other FE forum (FordFE.com)

Does anyone know what happened with the quality of the other site fordfe.com ? did they sell out to advertisers?
When I go there its hard to do anything because of  constant pop ups , ads on the left of the screen, ads on the right of the screen ,  ads on the bottom , click here for this click there for that etc
 Every time I go there I leave within 1 min  because of all the ads,
It only happens on that site no other sites or forums , its horrible.

Is this happening to anyone else ?

I dont have the crank youre looking for , but do have a 391 flywheel and block seperator plate if needed

I have up for sale a professionally rebuilt 4 speed toploader.
This is a close ratio Galaxie toploader, but could work in other applications and custom builds as well.
Big Input , big 31 spline output,  close ratio . C5AR main case , C6AR tail.
Professionally rebuilt by Anaheim Gear in Anaheim CA , (Randy Gillis last work place , im pretty sure he rebuilt this before his passing)
Original shifter assembly was completely taken apart , inspected , cleaned up and re assembled and re greased. No stick included.
Never mind the 1-2 lever being accidently upside down in these pics , I will filp it over before sale.

Besides Galaxie, this far forward shifter position may be perfect for a Thunderbolt , and other custom FE builds.

$3400.
located in southern California
