I can take a pic of anything you want to see

This is going to sound like an odd request, but would you mind giving me your VIN so that I can buy that steering wheel from the dealer? My truck has the slate steering wheel, and I want a black one! :eek:

I'm going to have to look into it. I know a ZF6 in a truck optioned like mine is going to be pretty hard to find so that is why I am going to have to do it myself

We built a manual manual tranny truck for a guy. His was loaded. Almost every option available. The truck got 100% over objectors and my twin cp3 setup. It it just awesome to drive. 3600 all billet double disk clutch. We added a little to the clutch rod to give the pedal a little more travel and that helped out a lot with shifting. Waiting on the short throw shifter for it. I think that will make it even better.

Can you post any pics of the 3600 DD billet clutch your using?

"100% over objectors" ... I like the sound of that.

Thats good to hear lubeowner. Anyway you could throw out a parts list of what is needed to make the swap. Also about what a used 5R110 goes for.

IF you want to race or anything like that ever, id say auto.

If you dont ever race and dont mind dealing with it in traffic then a manual is awesome.

There is a reason i sold my M5rd for an e4od in my F150 :evil

Its a dually...no plan on racing. More than likely will do this once I get out of the military or once I'm stationed somewhere thats less big city. There is only like 5 stop lights in my whole home town so once I'm there traffic won't be an issue....really wish someone had a complete kit to do the swap available

I can definitely get you the clutch and shifter when your ready, everything really is just fab work.

I have a manual and I dont mind it in the city and stop and go driving. If I raced, definetly a built auto, I just like my manual because I can hold the gears for as long as I want.
