    Default 5-speed conversion

    Hello Everyone,

    I have been searching the forum and I am stuck. I have a doner car available and I need to know what parts I need to take from it to do a 5-speed conversion....I know the tranny, shifter, diff,....is there anywhere that there is a list of these items, so I don't forget anything.

    Thanks Maurice

    Ok I got all the parts from the doner car:
    tanny
    shifter parts
    drive shaft
    rear diff
    peddal assembly
    all hydraulic lines (will have to replace some lines)
    fly wheel
    wires for reverse switch

    I started yesterday taking my car apart so far I have taken out the tranny, drive shaft and automatic shifter assembly. This conversion looks straight forward.

    If there is any advice or things i should look at while doing this conversion please feel free to tell me.

    I have noticed a little oil leak on my oil pan so I am going to change the oil pan gasket and I am going to change the rear oil seal aswell.

    If there are any pionters on the electrical Auto to Manual that would help greatly....I know the info's here in the forum just have to read.

    Thanks for any help in advance
