I'm trying to get my parts list in order for my rebuild and eventual install of the T-176 in place of the current T-5 . I'm going to do a new flywheel and clutch when I do it (just want to do it). It'll come with a new throw out bearing and pilot bearing. Please let me know if I am missing something, or should look at another part/manufacturer.

Flywheel
Luk Clutch

Stabilizer mounting stud
Bushings for stud

Transmission boot
backup switch
backup switch pigtail
floor cover

For the Master Rebuild kit, should I go with the Crown or spend the extra bucks and go with the NOVAK kits?

Crown
Novak
Crown Shifter kit
Novak Kit

Finally with the Transmission mount do I need both a solid and a flexible mount?

Solid
Flexible

Did I miss anything?

Thanks in advance.
 
I say stay away from Crown about all they sell is cheap :dung:. You only what to do this once spend a little more and get parts that fit and will last. IMO
 
Interior shift boot combo
Both driveshafts
T case lever when T-176 is used
T-176 bellhousing or drill/ tap yours
Make sure the clutch kit comes with pilot bushing and throwout bearing

the T-176 is shorter than the T-5 so the shifter comes up through the floor in a more forward location. Thus the different tunnel cover and different length driveshafts. As attached, the Dana 300 also moves forward, BUT they didnt want the shifter to be out of reach or under the dash when in 4Low. Both the T-176 Jeeps and the T-5 Jeeps have the Dana 300 shifter come up through the floor in the same place. They do this with two different offset shifters.
I snapped a pic when I had the two side by side one day.
