Anyone know where I can get a front plate for the FM-146 to have the newer style slave cylinder?

Here are some pictures to show that the FM-146 that I have has the old style front plate.

What? There should only be one slave cylinder for it, it's the same as the M5OD.

There are 3 different style slaves for Rangers/BII's. One is an external slave and then there are 2 different internal styles. One style is like the one in the picture below while the other style is like the M50D's.

The one pictured in the bellhousing is a FM145 slave, FM146 only had one slave and it's the same as the M5OD. I'm confused with your problem...
 
Correct. The one pictured is for a FM-145. I need one for a FM-146. The front plates of the transmission is different from the FM-145 to the FM-146. The FM-146 plate has a spot for the slave to mount too; both front plates are the ones for the FM-145.
 
He is looking for an FM146/FM132 bearing retainer that uses the '88-92 type slave cylinder, I just hope he's aware he would also need to use the '88-92 bellhousing with it.

You said "new" and "old" not FM145-FM146, that's what confused me.

correct.

I do have the correct bell housing for that type slave cylinder.
 
would you ship just the front cover to me? West Chester is WAY too far just for that. If I would have knew when I was up there before Christmas, I would have got it then (worked on the new Lowe's store); I didn't have the BII then though...
