================ You are opening a BIG can of worms wanting to go from a auto to manual. Dont forget about all the things that a manual needs to work that your truck doesnt have. Clutch pedal and all related stuff, stick shifter, cross member, speedo cable, drive shaft length, the list goes on and on.

I've read that. I got the feeling he was the kind of guy to "miss" something when writing it out. Just my $0.02
