You cannot convert an automatic transmission to a manual one, but you can replace the automatic with a manual. It is a big job and if you do not do it your self would probably cost a lot more than selling the automatic truck and buying a manual truck. The manual will require different shift linkage, adding clutch pedal and parts to actuate the clutch, and you may need a drive shaft of different length. It is also common for automatics and manuals to use different rear axle ratios, and even the Electrinic Control Module and some wiring may need to be changed. Maybe that automatic is not so bad after all.
A518 is the transmission if it is an automatic, and if it is a manual then it is a Getrag 360.
yup
automatic or manual ?
automatic or manual? automatic, use mercron manual, use gear lube
Depends on the model of the truck
If the vehicle has an automatic transmission, it will have a dipstick. Manual transmissions do not have a dipstick.
an automatic transmission shifts through the 4 or 5 gears for you as you accelerate. a manual transmission must be shifted by hand using a shifter and a clutch (located next to the left of the brake pad).
It can cost between $500 and $2000 to change a manual transmission to an automatic transmission. The labor costs will depend on the specific shop charges.
A manual can; an automatic will not, as the 94 transmission will be electronically controlled, whereas the 86 would be mechanically controlled.
Manual transmission: Clutch Automatic transmission: possibly low transmission fluid
It all depends on the type of transmission the truck has, if it is manual than manual transmission fluid is used where if it is automatic, automatic transmission fluid is used Not always, my 91 302 with a 5 speed manual uses auto fluid, a lot of manuals do.
The owners manual shows Motorcraft BXT - 59 - for manual transmission and BXT - 65 - 750 for automatic transmission
