[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 427801, member: 18789"] That’s pretty good pricing for those parts. I would buy a pre bled master/slave assembly and probably wouldn’t use the plain slave that comes with the trans. The whole assembly can be bought for like $80 at rockauto, and not dealing with trying to bleed that system is a huge plus. It is more difficult to bleed than brakes, seems like it never bleeds properly. Luk flywheels are cheap, and I’m going to run the Luk 05-901 pro gold clutch. Have it all on my shelf just haven’t installed yet. Slip Yoke Eliminator would be a good idea since you may have to swap the trans input gear too. It would be a good idea regardless though. As for the PCMs, that part is a mess. Some people say they’re the exact same thing and you just unplug the Torque converter lockup relay on the firewall. On the manuals that harness just dangles with nothing plugged in. And of course I believe you’d have to ground out the park side of the neutral safety switch. You’d also have to redo the wiring for the reverse switch to hook it up to the manual trans. I believe manual and auto Jeeps have the Exact same harness down to the trans and then there is a different jumper harness for manual and auto based on the trans to make the connections. So you might even be able to buy the manual jumper, plug it in on yours, remove the TCC relay and call it good. Although if there is a difference between manual/auto PCM, then it might be looking for that park circuit to be grounded. I’m just not sure if there is a difference in PCMs or not. Wondering if installing manual wiring takes care of all that regardless of pcm. [/QUOTE]
