I am doing the 4.0L swap and swaping the M50D manual trans. The doner vehicle was a 1998 explorer with auto trans. My final issue is finding a hydraulic line from the master cylinder to the trans. I bought a line from a 1990 ranger but the connection to the trans was not correct. It looked like it would fit with the same design but the male connection was slightly larger and would not connect. The master cylinder end was ok.
What I need is a line from the master cyl which uses a pin to secure the line (from a 1986 B2) and at the other end a connection that fits the 1998 trans. I would be glad to change the master cylinder but when I look at my doner (it has a plate to cover up the hole in the fire wall) the plate is not the same shape as my B2. So a 1998 explorer master cylinder would not fit.
I also see line kits on the internet but I can not tell if they contain the correct connectors.
This is my final roadblock. NEED HELP!
