Manual trans swap - 5 speed
The 318 dakotas and ram trannys up to '01 I believe will bolt right up. The flywheel is a little expensive if you can't find one used in decent shape. Watch out for the 5.9L magnum motors I think from '91 up because they are externally balanced where an older 318 should be internal. Anyone correct me if I'm wrong please. The hydraulic set up is expensive new. For my truck ebay wanted 200 and the dealer over 300. The hard part in going to be getting the pedals with the clutch master that will actually engage the slave cylinder correctly that goes with the trans. That's the problem I'm running into now its almost trial and error. You can do it I'm sure its going to take a little patience and some time and money. Good luck and let us know how it goes.
