zf 5speed

i have a 1989 ford f150 with a 351w, my current tranny is a c6. i have been looking at a possible 5 speed tranny swap and have seen my two main options are the zf five speed and the mazda 5speed. i defenitly like the idea of the zf better and I was wondering what a complete list of parts would be to make this swap happen. any help is greatly apreciated, thank you.

Assuming your truck is a 4wd, Clutch, Flywheel, Clutch Master cylinder, hydraulic hose to the slave, Clutch/brake pedal assembly, possibly driveshaft lengthing/shortening.

Two-wheel drive will require a drive shaft that will allow for the 1/2 ton U-joints on the drive shaft and 3/4 ton Ujoints on the transmission where the transfer case would eliminate this problem.
