tranny issues?

Ok quick question. I have a 94 7.3 4x4 auto. It's idi and turbo. And am looking to switch it to a 5speed transmission. I can get a good deal on one out of a 95 powerstroke. My concerns are. Will it work and what all will I need for this change. I'm a newbie in the diesel world. Any help and advise is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Should work. You'll need the crossmember, front and rear driveshafts, pedal assembly from the same truck (NOT 87-91 they aren't the same), I got the dog house cover since it already has the hole for the shifter as well or you can cut your own. Shifter, boot, PRNDL cover (option, it's just cosmetic), flywheel, clutch, slave, clutch master, throw out bearing, fork, etc ( you can probably buy it all in a kit like I did) and the clutch hydraulic line coming from the master to the slave. I think i hit the big things I can't think of anything else on the top of my head I'm sure people will chime in as well! Good luck! It's not that difficult of a job, really.

edit: you can also switch the column out so that it doesn't have the auto shifter. Again it's only cosmetic. My truck still has the original auto shifter.
