Thanks Simon,
When you say be careful not to drop the sleeve, do you mean it may drop down inside the tranny?

When you say add one, if there isn't one, do I just ask for a T5 tranny input sleeve at the auto parts store. Do I have to worry about different sizes, or bring info on the particular T5 that I have? I know it's a World Class T5, but other than that I can't find much info on it in particular (other than gear ratios).

Thanks, Bill

I think what Simon is after is the following:

(The picture may not be exact - but should be real close to your T5)

1. If your input sleeve (number 12 below) is aluminum or cast, replace it with a steel unit. They're available from Ford in their parts department as an after market.

2. Replace the seal (number 13 below)

3. Be careful not to loose the shim

Great tips fellows. Glenn that picture helps explain it better, thanks.

Bill
