like the title says, do you think you could swap in a manual trans in a raptor? how about even a manual t-case?:dunno:
 
Probably, either an M5OD from a 04-08 truck for sure (maybe 97-03 as well) or a ZF from a fullsize gasser.

The ZF would probably be better for durability but neither is really suited for what a Raptor is.

You could get a manual t-case in the 04-08's.
 
I can see some serious fitment issues from that stupid huge center console involved in this idea.
 
isnt a manual better and stronger for dessert racing?

The M5OD won't like being strapped to either a 5.4 or 6.2 and the ZF is geared to pull houses not win off road races.
 
I dunno, the 6R80 is a pretty strong trans.
