Tremec TKO 600 FYI’s

Finished the transmission off during the week, there are a couple of points not mentioned in the previous discussion regarding Tremec TKO 600 transmissions which are of note:

1. The large rubber bung in the tail shaft needs to be removed (do not throw away), the best way to do this is by using a pair of needle nose pliers gentle sliding these inside of the outer seal at 12 o’clock, 4 and 8 o’clock gently working the bung out (12 o’clock marks can be seem in the picture).

This should be kept as this seals the tail nose if the driveshaft is removed and will stop transmission oil from spilling if the transmission needs pulling at a later date.

2. If the electronic speed sensor is to be used then the rubber plug on the driver’s side where the mechanical speed sensor would be mounted needs replacing with a cap fitted with an o ring and held in place by a ¼” bolt.

3. The holes on the gear leaver needed drilling out to match the shifter arm.
