So i found a 98 v10 2500 that has caught fire, it had a 5spd, someone already got to that, but i want to get the rest of the manual conversion parts for cheap. I know that I need to get the pedal assembly, and hydraulics for the clutch, shifter boot and input shaft for the transfer case. What else do i need? Wiring? Does it need to be cut or is there a connection to take out the part i need? Are the drive lines the same? Is there anything that i am overlooking? I am going to get a southbend clutch kit so i dont think that i need flywheel, is starter the same for manual as auto? I know the v10 starter wont work, but was just wondering? Thanks for the help.

call them...they can answer all you questions. buddy used them and was very satisfied with there customer service.... although there a little pricey compared to piecing a kit together.

 

ok, they helped i got the pedals, hydraulics and boot for $50. My new question is, which they dont know the answer to, is the gasser also had a 241 in it, but backed up to a nv3500, is it the same case that i need with the correct input shaft? or would it be different between the two trannys? Thanks for everyones responses.;

 

i believe...nut not 100% that the 241 behind a nv3500 has a 27 spline shaft not 100% on that. just going off memory...im only 27 but my memory blows. also they got them on ebay for $85ish if u end up having to buy one

the transfer case in that v10 is a nv4500... so the transfer case will have the right shaft. the 3.9l and very few 5.2l had the nv3500

 

so just a waste to buy it then, as i already have a case if the input needs to be changed, thanks for your help, anyone think that i should go get the crossmember? its only $20, but do you think the mount will be the same
