I want to swap out my A4LD to a manual but dont know which one to go for. Ive got an 88 2.9L. What is the better trans? M5OD or FM146?
From the research ive done I think I want/need:
M50D from a 4.0L (lower 1st-3rd gear ratio)
4.0 Starter, block plate, flywheel, clutch assembly, starter wiring
Clutch and brake pedals,
Slave cylinder assembly
Do I need to get a 4wd trans or will a 2wd work?
How about transmission crossmember?
Im also assuming that a trans from a exploder will work?
Any advice/thoughts/concerns are greatly appreciated.
Thanks guys.
