change my m5od from 2wd to 4wd. i have found the new output shaft, annd i think i found a tailhousig for it. ive never done anything like that, but i do have the ford tech manual(u know the 30lb one). i think it might be a little out of my skill range and was wondering if anyone would be willing to help do it. i will buy food and beverages for the helper(s). fm146 has a lot of bearing noise like they all do and im wanting to put the heavier duty m5od in

Im no trans guy or I would help {toast}

manual makes it looks easy until it gets to the "remove cluster shaft" part lol. i scared im gonna get to doing it and get everything mixed up lol. i might get a bearing and seal kit while im at it. i already have the shifter bushing repair kit and the little plug deals for the shift rail cover

its not that hard. just use a big table or something you can mark and lay all the parts on in the order they came out.and take your time don't get in a hurry.

When I would restore a bike, I would get a binder, make drawings, take notes, bag & lable every part I took off. Being organized & working in a clean area helps doing any type of work. Just take your time & you'll get it done.

Don't come to mine or Richards shop then, we may keep up with the parts but we are far from organized or clean. ;)

Hell doing it yourselve is the best part because having bolts and parts leftover just means weight reduction. {hihi}

Amen to that.
