Syncro silent T98 transmission 48 to 52 truck
The 48 to 52 T98 synrco silent 4 speed. Is it the same as the 4 speed used behind Y block ford big trucks 1954 and up? Also the 1953 truck 4 speed, was it a T98 or did they still use both spure gear 4 speeds and the T98?

HI; I have a original '72 came with a T-98 optional as the floor pan uses a 2" higher bump. T-98's are common and preferred by some 4x4 racers. Syncros very good 2,3,and 4th . Newc

According to Novak, t98s were not used after 1964 in fords. The t18s were and for a few years the t18s used t98 covers

T98s are common, but 48-52 versions, not so much.

Also used in Towmotor, Hyster, and other material handling equipment. Often with a forward and reverse box.

Re: Syncro silent T98 transmission 48 to 52 truck
As noted above the 48-52 transmission uses a different case than the 53 and later transmissions. The fragile part of this transmission is the rear bearing retainer / mount which likes to crack. I found a transmission out of a Ditch Witch trencher that is identical in the case and gears to the 48-52 transmission. I had to find a Ford rear bearing retainer / mount.
To further confuse things in 1956 or so the gear teeth direction was reversed. |
