85 PU Automatic to Manual Transmission Swap
Since I havn't been able to find a reasonably priced automatic tranny to go in my 85 2wd Pickup w/ 22R engine and long bed, I have decided to chang to a manual. Here is what I have figured I need. Have I overlooked anything?
Automatic Transmission
Pedal assembly
Hydraulic Clutch system with new clutch and lines
Manual Transmission mount on crossmember
Jump neutral safety switch
Cut hole for shifter in hump
A couple of issues I worry about:
Flywheel?
Drive Shaft lengths. (Donor Tranny from a short bed truck)
Any other issues, ideas, suggestions? All are welcome

You can add the wiring for the neutral safety switch, or you can just put a jumper wire in the plug. You will need to buy a complete clutch and a fly wheel, and once you get everything bolted up then worry about the drive shaft, if its to long you can have it shortened, and if its to short that can be fixed to.
