Tranny Swap

Its finally time to undertake the swap of my trucks life! I'm gettin rid of the tired 47rh and replacing it with a rebuilt 5 speed. If anybody has a parts list or full step by step instructions for this swap that would be great. I think I know what all the parts I'll need are, but I'm sure I'm forgetting something. Also any particular clutches you guys like?

The link listed below has plenty of good information. You may have to cut and paste it.

My suggestion for parts is to find a donor truck. It will make your project go smoothly and of course, less headaches.

I located a donor truck in the wrecking yard and had every part I needed to convert from the automatic to a NV4500.
