I wanna swap out my auto for a 5 speed, what trans should i get? what all do i need to make this happen? what tranny will work with my motor? will my np242 still be compatible?

 

Parts your going to need:

• Transmission
• TansferCase (5 speed is 23 spline Automatic is 21 Spline)
• flywheel
• Clutch and Pressure plate.
• Clutch master Cylinder and lines to the ThrowOut bearing/slave cylinder.

MAybe drive shafts, I can't say the Automatic is the same length as the Standard.

 

The transfer case is different between autos and manuals? Good to know.

 

Im pretty sure that was only back in the 80's.


And an amazing write up here,

The Better 5 speed AX15 uses a 23 Spline, if you get the weaker tranny you can just bolt it up but if your going to do the swap, why would you want to go with a lighter tranny?

I forgot to mention above you'll need a pilot bearing too.

what about the harness? am i going to need to change the computer?

and would an np231 be the better bet for a tcase?
