plastic transmissions?

Nov 15, 2003 1 Replies

I have heard that Ford (GM also) uses plastic gears in transmissions? Is this true?


Don't know if plastic is right word; maybe nylon?


The speedometer gears have always been plastic...at least in the modern era. I seriously doubt that the power transmission gears would be plastic...
