I just grabbed a '92 sploder for the engine, wiring harnes etc. I have done a 4.0 upgrade into an ol' B2 so I'm OK with the nuts and bolts.
My question - Can I use the 5spd manual from behind the original 2.9 in my
'91Ranger SC with the original clutch/flywheel? It has the heavier front end (dana35?)and I don't know what the diff is between transmisions (Mitsub./Mazda) I read on a diff swap thread that the Mitsu trans won't hold up very well. Altho I am not the gear-head that I used to be and will just use this truck for a work vehicle.
Isn't there a 10 or 11 inch clutch upgrade?
Do I buy a used one and re-surface or just go new -flywheel, disc, press'plate
What about phasing/balancing? My old flywheel looked like you could put it on in any position - no balancing issues?
Thanks for your help and I didn't mean "gear-head" like it's a bad thing...
