When i did my swap I order the complete clutch hydraulic set up from Mighty Diesel. Ordered it for an 01 even though my trans came out of an 05 and everything worked perfect. W/ the 6 speed your going to need a starter spacer if you dont already have one.

hopefully it's at least a 2001 trans. if so, it's got the larger 1 3/8" input shaft as opposed to the prior 1 1/4"
