[terryknight]

you want to know what parts you need to do an auto to manual swap? is that what you are asking?

[madpogue]

4x4 or 2WD?

[forttravis]

4x4 and i know most of what i need but have other questions on like what clutch to run or what 5 speed i know the zf5 but what other model numbers. what drive shafts will work in it or will a f150 floor pan work for my truck for the trans hump

Please use punctuation. My brain hurts from trying to decipher.

Thanks

your current driveshafts should work the floor pan from a 1/2 ton will work, but the zf5 needs to be from a DIESEL no gasser has the same bell housing bolt pattern

i got told i would have to get the shafts from another manual. i was also told that my transfer case wouldn't work. is their anyother clutches other than south bend and valtrain that will do as good as them

[terryknight]

transfer cases are the same, the front drive shaft is the same and i believe the rear is the same as well

as for clutches valair, luk, and southbend make them

ok so i got a phoenix friction clutch and flywheel and pedals are in and have the trans waiting to go in . the next thing is where do i get the neutral safety switch wiring. and the master and slave cylinder i am guessing has to be out of a 97 also and the wonderful ford shop near me told me they couldn't flash the pcm to make it a manual pcm

If you're getting the hydraulics out of a donor truck, just leave the switch on the pushrod. If you're buying new, buy the complete pre-bled kit, and look for one that includes the switch.
