QUOTE (Ray @ Jan 10 2009, 12:24 PM)  Actually, it's easy to say... much harder to do. Unbolt and remove auto tranny (Enjoy that if you've never...) Bolt up 5 speed <-- make sure your flywheel, clutch, bearings ok <-- make sure you have a 5 speed drive shaft too Remove and replace brake pedal to a 5 speed version or be ghetto and cut Cut hole/drill in firewall for clutch placement / run lines Rewire neutral safety switch etc etc... Theres a lot of odds and ends in between, knock yourself out. Remember, it always costs more to fix your mistakes. Don't forget the ever important: 43. try to use automatic trans crossmember 44. post thread asking why it won't work 45. source manual crossmember, throw auto in trash |
