Swap Idea

I got a 98 Prerunner 2.7L 2wd ext cab last night. Runs decent but I don't like automatic.

I found a 96 Taco with 4x4 manual trans and a bad motor.

I am thinking swap the trans from the 96 and make the 98 a 4x4 manual.

Deal or no deal? Any better ideas out there?

The whole truck is only 1k and has almost new wheels and tires..this ensures
I will have everything I need, from clutch master cylinder to pedal assembly to transmission. I just hope the standard cab truck parts fits the prerunner ext cab body?
