    remaining IX auto to manual swap needs

    Needing:

    1. Manual transfer case and flex disc (good working condition) $100-350 depending on condition/history.

    2. Clutch Assembly - $50 - 100 {flywheel, clutch kit, clutch fork (not certain if this is IX specific or if I can even use some of my auto parts)}

    3. Z3 short shift kit that WILL fit- $75 - 115

      I have used pressure plate and disk, brand new throw out bearing, and brand new pilot bearing.

      $165 shipped for all 4 items.

      ix has specific part numbers for pressure plate, but regular rwd stuff fits and works.

              What does this mean? Does the clutch feel tighter in the IX?

                it just has more clamping force. I don't think it makes that big of a difference though.

                  Trust me, the regular clutch works perfectly in the iX. I have first hand experience.
