So, I managed to break this into two - or more accurately - the aluminum casting under the floorpan that pivots somewhere at it's top is in two pieces...

I have a '95 with the 5-speed / 300
I'm wondering if I need to specifically look for one off a 5-speed, or will the one off the Auto work?
What about other models - will it likely be the same on F250's / F350's?

Any advice on where to search for one of these - aside from the local u-wrench it yards that are not going to be pleasant at this time of year...

 

For that type of part, suggest that junking may be your best route.

Don't know that the tranny type is important - need to get the shifter from the same transfer case.

Can't help much beyond that - my Chiltons only covers 87-91 model years and lists the Borg-Warner 1345 and 1356 transfer cases as possibilities.

Some of the higher end junkyards have already disassembled the vehicle and have the parts on shelves indoors.
