Re: Going Manual

Probably the whole pedal setup out of a mini truck with a hydraulic clutch and a booster on the master cylinder would be your best bet.
Mechanical linkage to the clutch could be done but that would be the hardest part of the whole swap and probably send you down the driveway screaming before it was done.

I went out and looked under the hood of my 92 Dakota donor rig and it has the biggest ugliest booster you can imagine. no sign of the clutch linkage so it must be a cable that runs down through the floor. That might work with a small booster and be reasonable clean on the firewall though.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
