Hello everyone,

Installing a new D&D input shaft on T56. The issue is it roates freely until 180* point then feels like slight jam until it passes that point. Its consistant each time same pleace. Installed old Input shaft and roates freely. Swaped it back and forth a few times with same results. Bearing was pressed in by D&D.

Local Mustang shop took a look and spun it by hand and think its most likely burr on the teeth. They said it happened to then 2 times last year with D&D shaft, and they had to file the burr to get it smooth..

Im going to call D&D monday, anyone ever had a smiliar issue?

Do your self a favor and get the Tremec 26 spline input shaft if you can find one. Part number TUFM 6132.

Just to update this, got the new input shaft and it turned smooth. So the problem was the 1st shaft. Tranny is in the car 70 miles on it. 4 races and all is well!
