===T-96=== * It was a heavy-duty option behind the 196 engine only, base tranny was the T-96. *Also used in Jeeps (CJ2-up), Studebaker sixes, and early Falcons. *T-96 and Borg-Warner aluminum automatics have the same spline and are the same length. *T-96 shaft length is 6.5" *T-96 came in only the Hornet and Gremlin for 1970-'72: the “H” for 199, “J” for 232. *The T-14 was used in all others with the 232 cid inline 6. *The different models are distinguished by different letters. These indicated a "minor" internal change, sometimes a different gear ratio, different bearings, etc. Cases remained the same, as did overall internal design. *It is not exactly the same for all years, there are different versions that have slightly different internals. *1964 T-96E overdrive has a 1.83:1 second gear, even though it is not a “Twin-Stick”. *1966 T-96F has a bigger front bearing and synchro rings than the T-96E overdrive. *T-96E overdrive case has a bigger hole in the back than T-96F. *T-96F has the rear bearing in the case, not in the adapter like T-96E. The rear bearings are the same. *T-96H might also be the same tranny as T-96, just an indication to differ it from the J series. *T-96J was only used by AMC so it’s much harder to find parts for it. *T-96J was used in Rebel and American in 1967 as well as 1970-'72 Hornets and Gremlins. *T-96J is a heavy-duty version of the T-96 with a larger first hear (3:01:1 vs. 2.60:1 in T-96), a larger front bearing, and a larger mainshaft. The standard gear cluster should fit the J model as well. *Some were prone to premature failure due to improper hardening of internal shafts circa 1971. *T-96 and automatic B-W M-37 have the same number of splines. *T-96 and automatic B-W M-35 also have identical universal yokes. *The T-10 1971-up used a smaller diameter, thinner bearing cap, with the 11-inch clutch and short throw out bearing. This was also the same bearing that T-96 and T-14 used. *A complete T-96 w/OD is 18-3/4" long from front of case to end of tailshaft housing. The OD unit is the same for all. *AMC used a multi-pattern bellhousing from the late 1970s through’83 which had patterns drilled for T-96, T-14/T-4, T-5 and SR-4. <br>
