can i swap my automatic for a manual and what would it take. I have 2000 f-150 with a 4.6 its a reg cab short bed.

 

A manual doner truck to swap everything over. Not as easy as the pre 97's but anything is possible. 4x4?

its a two wheel drive. about how hard, would i need anything special.

 

why do all that work. The automatic trucks sell for more money. Sell your truck and buy a stick

 

Here are a few things to look at.

You will need. Flywheel, pilot bearing, clutch assy, slave cylinder, hydraulic system including master and resevoir, pedal assy, tranny, tranny mount. Your driveshaft length may have to be adjusted.

Electrical concerns. Your PCM is programmed to run an automatic so this function will have to be disabled. Your truck will not start if the PCM thinks it is in gear. The manual trucks have a clutch pedal switch that will not allow current to flow to the starter if the clutch is not depressed. This also turns off the cruse control if you press on it while on. If you wish to have this function you will need to wire it in.

Body issues
Your floor will have to be cut for the shift lever. You will have to cut the firewall for the clutch master cylinder and rod to go through.
