We looked over the tranny today and found that it was off(gears) so it was acting funny for the previous owner. His loss my gain I guess. It all looks fine from here.
Thanks again for the parts needed list. I'll be sure to take pics.

 

this is the information i got from someone else on here: you would need
92-00 tranny
92-00 shift linkages(d series exc. del sol)
92-00 pedal assembly(or choose to use only the clutch pedal and cut down the brake pedal)
clutch master with resevoir
hyd. master line(line fr clutch master cyl to slave cyl.)
slave cy
92-00 front tranmission mount and brakets(auto willnotwork)
92-00 5spd ecu, and your factory automatic axles will work with the 5spd conversion.

 

oh i forgot this is for 92 ex auto to a 92 lx manual
