Would a 2002-2008 Mazda 6 manual transmission fit in a 1996 Mercury Sable Wagon?
I have a 1996 Mercury Sable Wagon with an automatic transmission on its last leg. The car has a 3.0 L Duratec 30 (Mazda AJ) which was widely used in both Ford and Mazda powertrains. So here's the question, would a 2002-2008 Mazda 6 manual transmission be transferable to my 1996 Mercury Sable Wagon? My main concern is that all the hardware line's up and the drive shaft is the right radius. I choose this car because they were pretty avidly fitted with manual transmissions; meaning it would be easy for me to find a salvaged model. However this powertrain was also found in other models such as the 2004-2007 Jaguar S-type and the 1989-1999 Mazda MPV so if the Mazda 6 manual doesn't have compatible mounts is their any other car I could find a manual transmission that would fit in my 1996 Mercury Sable?
"avidly fitted?" Who writes this way? Where did you get the idea that this will work? Doing a manual conversion to an already automatic car is not "plug and play," there's much more work involved. That 'family truckster,' will be down longer that it is to find and install a good, used automatic from a Sable or a Taurus.
- Will 17 rims with (225, 60r17) fit my 2000 Mercury Sable/Ford Taurus? I obtained a full set of factory rims from a different vehicle, and they DO have the same bolt pattern as my Sable. I'm currently riding on 215 60r16, but want to upgrade to these, if possible. Any ideas, folks?
- Can you get a 2015 ford mustang and Chevy camaro in automatic transmission instead of manual transmission? Hi, I'm thinking about buying a 2015 ford mustang or Chevy camaro. Both of the cars come in manual transmission! Is it possible to get it in automatic transmission instead? Can I just ask the dealer (dealership) to give me the car with automatic transmission or do I have to change it myself?

- Is the Ford Header Panel 30VBGXBY and 30VCGFFY interchangeable? (Mercury Sable)? Wondering if the are Interchangeable IE either can replace the other. The Parts number is the portion included. Tried to upload photos but wasn't able to. The Header Panel is in the Nose of the Car holds the Car Lights and Next to the Radiator.
