I have a manual 5 speed for a 98 F150 thats just rebuilt and I stuck it on craigslist and someone asked what years it would fit, does anyone know what years used the F65 or F85 Mitsubishi 5 speed transmission, thanks, Larry

 

That's not a Mitsubishi tranny, it's a Mazda M5OD-R2.

Do you have a V-6 or V-8, and is it 2wd or 4wd?

 

It's a V8 four wheel drive

 

All that one will fit is a 97-03 4wd 4.6 V8. It will bolt to a 5.4 but it won't hold up. I think there also may be an issue with the location of the shifter between years.

 

Thanks, I appreciate the info, Larry
