I'm going shopping this weekend and with any luck will score the whole drivetrain for my '97 V6 automatic ranger to 5.0/T5 swap. I'm willing to bet that I am forgetting something, or that there is something I don't know I need...can some of you chime in with suggestions?

Here's my list so far:
5.0 and T5 combo (if I'm lucky)
8.8 rear from explorer or Ranger
steering column
Gage Cluster
Clutch pedal assembly from Ranger

Also, does any one know what years will be good donors for the last 3 items?
 
1995 and newer for the column and pedal assembly. You could keep the stock cluster and just pull the PRND2L piece if you want to save a couple dollars.

Don't think the dash changed until 2002 again.

Grab a manual trans (Ranger) driveshaft also, if you really want to keep the cost down.
 
The dash in my '03' looks just like my 2000. Now, don't know how electicaly similar they are.
