BORG WARNER T10 4 SPEEDS - THICK HUB DESIGN:
The Borg Warner T10 4 speed transmission is available in four different basic styles. The styles are GM, Ford Short, Ford
Long & AMC. They are super strong, excellent gear ratio selection and fast shifting. They have been available as OEM
transmissions and aftermarket performance transmissions. The adapter kits are available for all of the different models.
It is very important that you compare the new shaft furnished with your kit to the shaft that you are removing from your
4 speed transmission. If the shaft is different, then you should call the factory immediately for obtaining the correct shaft.
The tailhousings have been identical since 1961 and the adapter should interchange perfectly with your original 2 wheel
drive extension housing. There have been two instances where the reversed gear pocket depth on the second design. Super
T10 transmissions were 1.060" deep. The casting that you have received is only 1" in depth. You should check this to
see if your tailhousing will need any modifications. Advance Adapters will be happy to modify your tailhousing free of
charge if you have come across one of these special items. The gear ratios that apply to the different model numbers on
the Super T10 transmissions are as follows:
Gear Ratios:
Series 1st Gear 2nd Gear 3rd Gear 4th Gear Reverse
T10-U 3:44 2:28 1:46 1:00 3:33
T10-W 2:64 1:75 1:33 1:00 2:71
T10-X 2:64 1:61 1:23 1:00 2:49
T10-Y 2:88 1:75 1:33 1:00 2:49
The adapter housing is a direct copy of the original tailhousing that your transmission was equipped with. You will need
to disassembled the shift lever shaft, steel ball and spring for re-assembly into the new adapter. The original tapper pin
must be reinstalled to hold the reverse gear shaft in position.
The total overall length of the transmission and adapter will require driveshaft modifications on most installations. The
adapter has provisions for mounting an optional crossmember mount as illustrated on the opposite page. Depending on
the exact vehicle that this transmission is being installed into, you may require clutch linkage modification, overdrive shifter
bracket modifications and transfer case control linkage modifications.
On installations using a 2 piece main shaft, make sure that the coupler and the output shaft do not bottom out. We have
found on occasion that a transmission output shaft may be slightly longer than we have allowed for and when coupling
into our new spud shaft, we find a small amount of interference. The adapter housing and spud shaft must be assembled
to the back of the transmission without interference.
DO NOT FORCE THE NEW TAILHOUSINGONTO THE
TRANSMISSION. If assistance is needed, please feel free to call the number listed above.
The adapter is set up for use with a Hurst Competition Plus shifter that can be bolted onto the new casting by using shifter
bracket No. 715502-NS. This bracket will accept all Hurst shifters. Special shifter linkage will be required since the shift
tower location is so much further forward than on two wheel drive installations. We offer a modified rod kit for use with
this transmission, Part No. 715627-NS. We recommend that you inspect all of the gears end play prior to installation of
the shifter assembly. This inspection should be done after the transfer case output gear has been installed.
In order to prevent the transmission fluid from mixing with the transfer case fluid, we recommend that you leave the original
transfer case seal in the stock location. The original 3 speed output bearing must be reused in the back of the adapter casting.
An optional item would be to use a sealed bearing, Advance Adapter Part No. 716301.
