OK, I think the next major upgrade to the Bronco is going to be a transmission swap. I have the crap A4LD auto, that I think is starting to suffer after 120,000 miles, and I'm looking to swap in an M5OD-R1 Manual transmission!!! And also do the 4.0 clutch upgrade!
I went to the local JY and they have a few M5ODs from 4.0 explorers, and I think a few from 2.9 rangers. They want $200 regardless of whether or not I get it out of a 2.9 or a 4.0. I'm sure you guys are tired of people asking about this swap and what is needed to do it. I have read tons of threads and I think I have found all the parts that will work for this swap.
Here is a list of parts

My main question is, will all of these parts work for swapping in a 4.0 clutch into a 2.9 with an M50D-R1 Tranny??
Also will my T-case bolt to the back of the M5OD tranny? I'm not sure what it is, all I know right now is that it's an electric shit.
Thanks
