Type 9 (also Type N, T9, or T-9) is a gearbox from Ford that was used in the Ford Capri 1.6 L and 2.0 L from 1984 onward; the Capri 2.8 L from 1983 onward; the Ford Sierra 1.6 L, 1.8 L, and 2.0 L; the Sierra XR4i and the Sierra XR4x4 2.8 L; the Scorpio 4x4; as well as the US-market Merkur XR4Ti and Merkur Scorpio.
The Type 9 was Ford's first five-speed, rear-wheel-drive (RWD) gearbox, and it is based on the four-speed Type E gearbox. The fifth, or overdrive gear, was added to the four-speed gearbox by placing it in the extension (or tailshaft) housing. This made production easier and cheaper; however, it effectively limited torque capacity to around 200 lb. ft.
The Type 9 is a popular choice for five-speed conversions of older Ford cars, such as the Cortina and RWD Escorts, and also for kit car builders since it comes with a separate bell housing which can be easily swapped around. Engines that were originally in front-wheel-drive (FWD) layouts are fitted to these transmissions so that they can be placed into a RWD layout, such as in a hot rod engine swap or kit car. The gearbox has a 1-inch-diameter (25 mm) 23-spline input shaft, and the main gear housing is cast iron with a cast aluminum tailshaft housing.
Overall, the Type 9 is suited for vehicles with lower power levels and a lighter weight. However, in applications that require more power, the Type 9 is frequently replaced with the stronger Borg-Warner T-5 transmission.
