You can reuse your clutch, you need the box,shifter,mount and Trans yoke. Easy conversion only takes about 4 hrs.Do that and you wont look back Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76625-2004-ba-turbo-gearbox-probem/#findComment-1135478 Share on other sites More sharing options...
