Ford Gearboxes For Sale

It ranges widely. Small-car manuals (Fiesta, Figo, Focus, EcoSport — iB5 / MTX-75) start as low as R850 and typically run R4,500 – R6,500. The Ranger / Everest MT82 manual sits around R13,000 – R28,750 depending on engine and 4x4. A used 6R80 torque-converter auto starts around R12,500. The PowerShift dual-clutch boxes are rarely priced openly — a reconditioned wet 6DCT450 is around R21,500, and the dry 6DCT250 is usually quoted on request. Submit one quote request and compare verified suppliers for your exact model.

These are three different gearboxes that share no parts. The DRY PowerShift (6DCT250 / DPS6) is a dual-clutch box in the Fiesta, EcoSport and small Focus — it is the headline failure unit (shudder, dry-clutch contamination, TCM faults). The WET PowerShift (6DCT450 / MPS6) is a different dual-clutch behind the Focus 2.0 and Kuga, with clutches running in oil. A conventional automatic (6R80, 10R80, 6F35) is a torque-converter auto — a completely different design used on the Ranger, Everest and some Kuga / EcoSport models. When you request a quote, give your model, year and engine so suppliers match the correct unit.

Often yes, but get it diagnosed first. Many PowerShift complaints (shudder, harsh shifts, limp-mode) come down to the dry-clutch pack or the TCM (control module) rather than a totally dead gearbox, and on the dry 6DCT250 Ford generally treats these as replace-only. Because the box rarely has a clean published price, it pays to compare a used or reconditioned full unit against a clutch / TCM assembly. If the car is older and the spend is hard to justify, it is worth checking what it is worth for scrap first. Either way, request a quote and let verified suppliers price the options for your exact car.

Three things decide it: model and year, manual vs automatic, and the engine. A few traps to watch — the Kuga can be a wet PowerShift (6DCT450) OR a 6F35 torque-converter auto; the Everest automatic is a 6R80 on the 2.2 / 3.2 but a 10R80 on the 2.0 BiTurbo; the Figo manual code varies by generation; and the Bantam runs a 5-speed manual. The safest approach is to confirm by VIN. Give your VIN and engine code when you request a quote and suppliers will confirm the exact unit before you commit.

It varies by supplier. Used units typically carry a 30–90 day warranty; reconditioned and new aftermarket boxes usually 6–12 months. On PowerShift units, check specifically whether the clutch pack and TCM are covered, since those are the common failure points. Always get the warranty terms in writing and confirm whether fitment at a qualified workshop is required.
