I found a free jacket in 3ds format I would like to put on Micheal 3 with his morphs.  Could anyone tell what is needed and a tutorial on how to do that?

First identify if you want to make it a conforming clothing or a dynamic clothing or a hybrid.

For dynamic clothing I recommend going to:

www.poserfashion.net

For conforming:

www.poserpro.net

and look at the tutorials a-z and click on clothing creation.

In case you get problems like pointing mesh:

Hybrid:

For putting morphs on it, you can get yourself some of PhilC's Wardrobe Wizard in

another way is putting folds and gravity on it using the cloth room and creating morph targets.
