im going to be ordering parts today most likely so that i can install a transmission next weekend. i want to make sure that i'm ordering everything i need and not forgetting anything.

as of now i dont have anything that goes with the driveline except for the driveshaft

heres what ill be getting:

-transmission/bellhousing
-flywheel with bolts
-clutch/pressure plate
-pressure plate bolts and dowl pins
-steel bearing retainer
-rear main seal
-new pilot bearing
-throw out bearing
-clutch fork
-transmission mount and crossmember


So, is there anything in that list that i am forgetting that goes with the driveline? also the one thing i dont know much about is the throwout bearing. can someone explain to me where this goes/what this does?

are you doing a auto to manual or does it just not have a trans, or are you upgrading???

i thought there was a lot of info in the first post? hahah

but i probably should have mentioned....car was previously a 5 speed and i bought it as a roller. so it already has cable and pedal assembly

That harness requires removing the seat and carpet to remove it without damaging it. Unless madmaxin did this I would say that it is still there. To the left of the shifter hole in the tunnel there should be a harness going through the floorpan into the inside of the car. Thats the trans harness.
