So I desperately want a 5 speed in my truck since I do enough highway driving to make me crazy. I have a friend with a ZF5 laying around and I want to scrap my 4 speed T-19. Both are 2wd so I dont have to mess with 4wd stuff. I have heard that this is a direct bolt on replacement. Is this true?
I am trying to get a good idea of what considerations need to be made before starting this project. I want to hear from people with experience in this swap and what I will need other than the trans and clutch to do it. Any modifications such as shortening the drive line or parts I will need. And any heads up on problems or pitfalls I will encounter.
