I have a 1996 1500 Ram 4X2, 5.2 engine, 4 speed auto, extended cab, and 8 foot bed. It has 280K miles on it and the transmission has about 100K since the last rebuild. At the moment I am having no problems with the transmission, however I know it will not last forever. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with swapping the auto trans with a manual. I did it with a few cars back in the late 60's - early 70's. However I realize things are much different with today's trucks, sensors, computers etc. I am just wondering if it is ;
- Possible
- Worth the effort and cost. The bottom line being, I plan to hang onto this truck from as long as possible Thanks David
