5spd to C4 swap??
I have a '91 2wd 4.0 5spd. I've killed my 5spd and want to go to a c4 with manual valve body. What all do i need for the swap?

No, I would use a standard Ranger crossmember just swing it end to end (from left side to right side) and enlarge the mounting holes to adjust for the mounting bolts.

well after more searches looks like th c4 is a bad idea. major loss in power and bad gas mileage. I guess its either stock replacement or t5 swap... hmm...

Too much jargon, what's a c4? Some kind of explosive?
