This is similar to the swap I am in the middle of. Click here to follow the thread
To answer your questions:
1. Not sure about the stud, my cases are Jeep and Ford. Could be the one on the driver side front.
2. AFAIK Yes you can swap all the Ford gears into the scout case. The granny low (6.32:1) and the other low (4.01:1) gears are not interchangeable unless you change the Cluster gears as well. If the Scout is a granny low, then you can swap in the Ford Input (front) shaft only, or you can swap all the ford gears (onto the scout shaft so that it will still fit the Tcase)
3. Depends on your flywheel. The ford input shaft uses a 1 1/16 X 10 spline. Scout is 1 1/8 X 10 I think. Anyway, if you have an 11" flywheel then a Ford truck clutch disc will work, if you have a 10.5" flywheel a Mustang or '76 jeep clutch disc will work. (By the way, the '76 Jeep clutch disc is available at Advance Auto Parts).
My swap is underway with both trannies partly dissasembled. The plan at the moment is to assemble in this order from the Engine (304 V8) back:
Novak Pilot Bushing (AMC / Ford)
'76 Jeep Clutch Disc
Existing ('75) clutch housing/pressure plate
'76 Clutch Fork and Throwout Bearing
All above inside a '80 T-176 Bellhousing
FSJ T18 with ford input shaft and gears
FSJ Dana 20 that came with the T18
If you go to the other thread, I listed some other swap stories and resources that helped me figure this stuff out. Also Novak is very helpful if you send email questions.
Good luck.
