Aftermarket Manual Shift Collars

[knightfire83]

If you search for "Ford shift collar" there are several listed on e-bay. Some OEM, some aftermarket for a decent price.

I had one break on my '70 automatic long ago and replaced it with a collar for the 73-78 and it worked fine. I believe the manual ones are interchangeable as well between 68-77.

Hope this helps....

Thanks.

I think i have learned that a lot of the aftermarket have a D5TZ 7228 part # and go for $15-$30. The true Ford originals have a C0DZ 7228 B and sell for $60+

I would like to know if there is anything truly different in quality between them.

the D5 number is the upgraded ford part number.
