There is a post on here search it. It tells you everything to switch to a man

Your just about better off trading trucks IMHO.

 

Ed I got a place close to me that has every part you might want for that swap. You could call them to get an idea of part cost. They deal in 2nd and 3rd gen. Dodges.

 

your probably gonna have to move your crossmember and rebuild your tranny support, match the flywheels to the new tranny and then worry about the pedals and the disk and the nuisance stick hanging from your steering collumn just below the steering wheel and ALOT of other unforseen crap... but hey Im putting a cummins in my f350 and i take the tops off coupe mustangs and replace them with fastbacks... so it dont bother me... good luck

 

not liking that goerends??? that was the best addition to my truck that i have done...but if you must swap,you're best off finding a doner truck...that way pretty much all the stuff is there...check out the threads on here (a couple of good ones over on the cummins forum too) and do your research...honestly, i think you're better finding someone who wants to trade (there are a couple out there)...but if you like the challenge, good luck and do your homework

 

Ed ( DazedandConfused ) also has a thread on here when he done his swap. It tells how it was done. Hope this Helps. Don't be scared
