I haven’t been able to find any that have a warranty the one on summit says that it is a ford performance part which do not have warrantiesThing is, if you buy a new T5z, you void the warranty if you crack open the trans to replace the speedo gear. Not worth it.
If you have your trans rebuilt, buy a 6 or 7 tooth drive gear and zip tie it to the trans and ask it be swapped in place.
Honestly, these trans are pretty easy to rebuild if you want a winter project. There are a few really good rebuild vids on YouTube I can recommend as well.
I used to do them for friends in my younger days.

2 grand on a t5 is a tough pill to swallow.
While i have someone that spent years rebuilding them professionally (in which i would not have to pay), if i had to, at the current price i would learn to do it myself.
That's where all the value is. You start spending 2 grand on one and it would be hard to avoid the TKX vs t5 debate.
Hell, it makes me think i should sell my tko600 and buy the t56 magnum i don't really need.
Yes, its all over... usually it says Dexron III / Mercon........So I just called tremec and the guy told me they recommend dexron iii for the t5z. Can you even buy that anymore?

I have rebuilt a bunch of T5's myself and it's expensive
Using Ford parts a synchro alone is around 400
Total parts and labor for an overhaul is around 2500 these days
Input bearing, both synchros, first gear and a seal kit (for starters)
