So far I have the following let me know what im missing.

5 speed trans (94) with bell housing and shifter
Fly wheel
clutch pedal assembly
drive shaft
clutch

Will the cross member from a 94 fit a fox body?
Wiring will that be needed from a 5 speed car or keep what is on the car now? Thanks for the feed back!

if your putting a 94 t5 in a foxbody i belive the bellhousing and input shaft are longer

not true you will have to change the input shaft and a 93 and down bellhousing the 94 has 5/8 of an inch longer bellhousing and input shaft i just did the same swap and found out the hard way i couldnt figure out why in the hell it wouldnt go all the way in

That is another option. But it will also work as long as you use a 94-95 bell housing.It will set you shifter back about I think 3/8 in.c and I had no issues at all.

Make sure you have all the bolts and clips.. When I did my swap that was my major problem, was missing a couple of flywheel, tranny and one of the starter bolts.

Also make sure you have the correct speedo gear in the transmission. And you will need to swap the clutch and speedo cables.
