1965–1966 Mustang T5 Transmission Crossmember Bar with E-Brake Bracket — TRA-656-522
Upgrade your classic 1965–1966 Mustang with confidence using California Pony Cars' heavy-duty T5 5-Speed Transmission Crossmember Bar, featuring an integrated parking brake bracket. Whether you're swapping in a World Class T5 or the newer TREMEC T5 (1352-000-251), this is the most trusted crossmember solution for a clean, secure installation — no cutting required.
Made in the USA from high-strength .090 wall tubular steel and welded for precision, this crossmember doubles as a subframe stiffener, improving structural rigidity and reducing engine torque flex. It’s a must-have component for T5 transmission conversions and everyday performance driving.
Beware of low quality imported copies made with thin steel and poor welds — our crossmembers are CNC-bent, fixture-welded, and powder-coated for strength, fitment, and durability.
