Drivetrain What shifter comes with a TKX??

limp · Mar 10, 2021

So help me with what I get and what I need for a shifter/linkage on a TKX
I am more familiar with external linkage, such as Hurst linkage on a Muncie or 883 4 speed
I see some of the Tremec dealers offer a "shifter" with there TKX 'Packages"..
So my question is what exactly comes on a stock TKX or even a TKO for a shifter?? is there some sort of stock shifter it comes with and then I would buy and attach a shifter "lever" to it, that would fit my brand and model of car? Or does the transmission come without any type of shifter and I have to buy it AND a shift lever for my car??
School me please....

Don't know of anyone who has had a TKX shipped yet but when I purchased my tremec 3550 new it came with a shifter without a handle or lever as you mentioned.

The few unboxing vids I've seen some far show a generic shifter base without a handle. I'd imagine it's nothing special, just tremec's own shifter base that has been used for a few decades now.

Which would work fine for most street cars?

Yes. No different than people who drove Mustangs with Stock T5 or T56 shifters.

The aftermarket is just starting to make shifters for the TKX.

sorry for bumping an old post but it seemed relevant. Does anyone know what shift lever will work with the factory tkx shifter?

Pretty sure all of the TKO and Magnum shifter arms fit.... Google TKX shifter arms..... I am waiting until mine is in the car to pick what I want to use...
