    Since you're taking out the AOD and putting in a manual, i assume you'll probably want a T-5 (or stronger). I'll be putting together a T-5 swap page shortly, complete with pictures, if you can wait a week. I don't have a website so i'll just donate my page to someone else. What's wrong with the AOD??

    I have personally never gotten the aod to shift correctly. This is proabably my fault but the tension cable in my opinion is to much of a hassle to have and I would enjoy rolling throught the gears in my maverick. Thanks for any help in the details of your swap
