Tail Housing

Usually tail housing refers to that portion of the transmission (manual or automatic) which extends off the rear of the tranny and houses the output shaft of the unit. Depending on the application it can vary in length. On the M5R2 the shifter is actually bolted to the tail housing also called the extension housing in some circles. How big you ask? Depends on the version of tranny you are asking about.
