I need to source a new T98. It can either be in good condition or rebuilt. I can travel to the states of PA, DE, MD, or in NJ.
Since I have your attention and your reading this- I have a couple of questions also:
Can you swap in a t18 with little or no modification?
Where to find a t18, if this can be done.
Is there a site that sells these new or rebuilt- not for 1300$+?
What is the best way to have them shipped?
Thanks for all your help in advance. This site is great.
I believe I have a "good when pulled" and stored indoors one you can have in CT....Let me look tonight...
Novak's sells a pretty comprehensive rebuild kit for T98's. Novak-adapt.com
I actually purchased this kit. But according to my mechanic, my 1st and reverse are almost gone. Those don’t come in the kit, and both together will cost more than a slightly used transmission. Novak does sell a t18 for 13k, but I’m trying not to head down that road, yet.
I have a T98 for sale. See for sale section. Am willing to ship but it is a bit pricey (around $250)
Will early T18 innards fit in the T98? I know this has come up before but don't remember what's interchangable.
I know the early T18s used the T98 casting, the one I pulled from a 71 Ford is like that.
Ray, wanted to thank you again, for the t98. It was a pleasure meeting you, the wife and the dogs. I am seriously impressed with all the work you are doing on your vehicle.

No problem, nice meeting you as well....Good luck and Take Care!
Ray,
Just wanted you to know: cracked the transmission open befor install. It is almost pristine inside. Little wear on the first gear, but other than that it is fantastic. Thanks again.
Great! Glad it is getting a new home with you!
From what I remember...there are different input shaft lengths and spline counts with the T18...also some have a reverse direction on the gear at the end of the input shaft...both right and left hand.
All the T98's are the same if I remember right...though input shaft lengths may vary...
