Back at the beginning of the year i was getting tips from a gentleman about swapping my auto tranny to manual. i have 94 4.0 4WD. i just have a few questions that i can't find any of the old threads.

 

was it lifted97ranger? if so i think he got banned

 

yeah but his thread is still around

 

Yea it was him but i didn't want to say his name since he was banned.

 

hes over on generation-edge.info and therangerstation.com alot as mjones

 

Whats your questions?

 

oh ok, well i was just looking for someone to help me out on a couple of things thats all. i just went out to look for my PCM in my truck and its not there, i have a donor truck with everything i need but where is the PCM on my truck and the other thing electrical i need to swap out

 

The PCM should be in the passengers kick panel if I remember correct. As for the manuals wiring, it should be located on the trans of the donor truck and plugs into your truck harness. Should trade out one trans harness for another, should be plug and play I believe.

 

The book says its on the firewall on the passenger side but i am not seeing it. does my year truck even have one?

 

ok i found it, it think, its silver and square right? so i need to take that from the donor truck and will the wiring harness plug right into the other PCM from the donor? Also what are the 2 plugs that plug into the master cylinder by the pedal?

 

Yes the PCM should plug right in, i'm not sure if anything has to be repinned though, hopefully someone else will chim in. The two plugs by the master cylinder are for the neutral safety switch and the clutch safety switch. Its so the clutch has to be depressed in order to start the truck, or in neutral, so it doesn't take off when you start it. You will need those or the truck won't start.

 

But they look like they are a part of the main harness coming from the firewall. i had heard someone esle had found them up stored up under the dash some where.

 

why were you afraid to say his name they arent going to ban you for saying he helped alot around here and just made a bad choice but anyway here is the thread for this manual to auto swap


here

 

Yea I know but i didnt know the reason for the ban and i didn't want to stir up up anything , sorry i have read his thread i just a couple of extra questions thats all. i had read something about someone finding the electrical plugs for the master cylinder under the dash, I just wanted to know if that is true

 

o ok i didnt read it all i just figured you wanted that thread so good luck man im stating my manual tcase swap this weekend so best of luck to you
