no where near, The 97 and earlier ranger have the ones that reach up into the dash where as the 98 + ones have the ones with 4 brake booster bolts and 2 upper support bolts with the clutch being a small side piece. The old ones the brake and clutch use the same hinge pin. It can be made to work but not well and Id rather not use it

Now most of you know I'm going to be swapping the auto out this week. I'm hoping by Saturday, but if not before then... Then on Saturday for sure.
I have all the compenents I need for the swap.
Picked up my stock shifter from Shane tonight as well as a manual trans tail housing for my trans. Imagine that, shane has enough parts to build a new ranger from the ground up lol.
Also took my flywheel I pulled off that 02 that was wrecked into the machine shop and had it resurfaced for $35.
Shane picked me up my floor plate and steering column shroud today too for $5. Oh and I also picked up my clutch line from Billy's dad at Ford for $78 and some change.... Happy to say, I'll have an FX4 ball soon as well. Thanks Billy's dad!
I'm going to go full blown OEM swap. I even took the factory wiring tied to that PCM from the truck I pulled everything from. New clutch and slave and i'll be good for quite some time! Oh and can't forget about my already 31 spline swap that took place 2 days ago!
I'll have pics soon guys, when I do it... Just wanted to make this thread to get it going. Shane will probably take more pics than me, but eventually, all the pics will be up!
Parts list:
Manual trans with tail housing (Year and motor dependent) - $145
Flywheel (New or machined) - Wasn't charged but $35 for it to be machined
Starter (adaptive to manual trans) - Wasn't charged for this
PCM (manual trans, preferably the PCM from the truck you pulled the tranny from) - Wasn't charged for this
Wiring harness - $5
Pedal assembly - Wasn't charged for this
Master clyinder - Wasn't charged for this
Clutch resevoir - Wasn't charged for this
Clutch line - $78.56 from Ford direct
Slave cylinder - $64 from Schucks/Kreger
Clutch kit - $230 from Schucks
New steering column surrounding plastic - $2.50 (split between this and the floor plate, at least what I was charged for)
Floor plate with hole cut for manual trans shifter - $2.50
Plastic piece with rubber boot that goes on top of the floor plate - Wasn't charged for this
Trans shifter - Free from Shane, making my own setup
Shifter extension (If body lifted) - Making my own
Shifter Ball - FX4 BALL!!! - Around $50
Shifter Boot - Unsure yet, going to have one made I think
Floor bezel (bezel with cup holders, expo console or what have you) - Using my console
Right now I'm sitting at just over $600 for the swap. Just depends on who you know and what you can get in your tool box when you leave a junk yard lol
If I'm leaving something else lemme know, but that should be everything.

Now kind of a stupid question but why do you need a new PCM and starter? Looking into swapping my 01' 2wd to standard

I just bought a 1995 ranger 4x4 4.0 5spd. It won’t rev passed 3500 or go into 4LO (electronic t-case). I found what I think it a neutral safety switch zip tied to the frame and there is no clutch sensor. I think the previous owner manual swapped it because according to the dealership trans code t on the door sticker means the it came with an A4OD auto. I don’t think they swaped the pcm and the harness. Idk what to do because I’m not sure what is and isn’t hooked up or how bad the harness is hacked would it be best to go get a pcm from a JY. Also is there any way to get the cruise from the auto to work.
