Hey guys i am stumped. I have a 1989 Roller Rocker 5.0 that i am dropping into my 1991 Explorer Sport. Long Story but here is my situation. I have a 1993 Explorer with a 5spd tranny. The 1991 is auto 4x4. In order to get the 4x4 to work i am going to use the 4.0 5spd tranny from the 1993, (pedals, steering wheel, and hydrolic clutch system already installed in the 1991. What clutch, flywheel, and pressure plate do i need to get the 5.0 on the 4.0 5spd?

DNE - does not exist. The 5-speed manual transmission will not bolt up to the 5.0L's bellhousing pattern.

5.0 and the 4.0 have the same bell housing. at least for the motor and tranny i got.

Will do. I hope on having it in finished by Sunday, if everything goes right. I'll put a build log up.
