The 4.0 Explorer tranny will not bolt onto a 5.0. The 4.0 is a "Cologne" V6 engine with a different bell housing than the Windsor V8.

If you can't find a 5.0 T5 you might find a 2.3 T5 and installing a 5.0 bellhousing. Many people say they won't stand up to a 5.0, but lots of people say they will as long as you keep the engine "mild", and you're probably more likely to find a 2.3 in Asia or even Europe than you would a 5.0.


Yeah, I know that 4.0 is Cologne.
2.3 is a more rare than 5.0 here. Never see it alive)

OK. Will try to find MTX from 5.0 Explorer...

Oh yeah, that may be a bit harder to get American car parts. Trinom is from that end of the world he may be able to help you.


There is no problem with small light parts.
I'm using USPS Express usually.
But too expensive shipping for heavy parts like tranny, engines...
