Correct Slip Yoke for 1965–1973 Mustang T5/AOD Transmission Conversions
This driveshaft slip yoke is engineered specifically for 1965–1973 Ford Mustangs converted to a T5 5-speed manual transmission or a AOD Automatic overdrive transmission, providing proper spline engagement, seal surface alignment, and driveline geometry for early model Mustangs.
It is designed to work with standard 28 spline T5 output shafts and allows the use of 1310-style U-joints at the transmission slip yoke, which is the industry standard for T5 and AOD conversion applications. This ensures compatibility with factory driveline components used during overdrive transmission swaps.
This yoke is selected and validated for early Mustang T5 and AOD conversions, helping reduce driveline vibration, tailshaft seal wear, and improper spline engagement.
