The stock 5.0 at least 87-93 is 60mm. The 5.0 explorers had 65mm tb on them. If you are looking for a 65mm tb just go to the junk yard and pull one off of an explorer. You will need to modify the linkage to work with the stock cable on a fox. It is fairly simple.

I thought the stock HO t bodies were a 58mm? I've done a few of these, and actually am going to do one this weekend on the bus. I have an extra t body if it's needed.

Well hell, I guess I was wrong. Either way if you are running a gt40 upper and lower I would not use the stock tb especially when the explorer tb are so easy to come by in the junk yard.

Yea I wasnt sure on the sizes. I was actually looking at bbk TB, but for a few less MM and a whole lot less money Ill just find one at a salvage yard. Thanks for the info!

Thats what I did, they are really easy to mod to fit the foxs too.
