V8 swap from complete 95' F150

Hey everyone just curious about this. Was going to put engine back into the f150 but it needs alot of work so I'm thinking of putting the 5.0 302 into a ranger I have. I have the complete f150 motor wiring harness, computer, trans everything. Now it's 5 speed manual. Does it matter of the ranger was auto? Both trucks are RWD too thanks.

You will need a clutch pedal.

I heard all auto ranger are ready to be wired up for a clutch pedal as well? So it shouldn't be to hard. Also I was thinking of selling my trans and getting a mustang one. I want my lil truck to move good and have fun

I am not sure if all auto trans Rangers are wired for manual at the factory but I know both my 1998 and my 1999 were. There is a pigtail with a plastic cap tied up above the clutch/brake pedal assembly that can be uncapped and plugged into the clutch safety switch once you add the manual pedal assembly.

I don't have a ford ranger now I will be buying after I'm done the engine just getting ready. My daily driver is a b3000 but not swapping into that. I am just figuring out if I should use my f150 trans or get a mustang one. And I don't know of i really need the 8.8 31 spline rear axel or of the 8.8 28 spline would be fine.
