Given all the things that are falling off my gen 1 4- door, I've been window shopping for a later truck.
There have been no manual transmissions whatsoever.
Did they not come that way, or is it just a case of people liking the stick so much that they never sell it?
Is it possible to do a 'trans- plant' of a gen 1 gearbox into an auto gen 2?
Inquiring minds want a drink...

I intend to convert my 95 SR to a stick. The Montero Sport came with a stick, a few at least, as well as some early gen2s. The gen1 as well as the Mighty Max can provide the iron case gearbox. For simplicity you will need the transfer that is on the doner transmission. I would like to get another transfer from an SR so I can install the shift hardware into it for the standard, might need to get some parts from over seas though.

If it helps, in the NAPA lookup, there are clutches and hydraulics for them, listed for GenII's. Can't say as I've ever seen one, though.

There's a '92 for sale down the street for me, and it's a 5 spd. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

My genII is a stick... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
If you're going to swap em, the number is the same, V5MT1, from V6 genI to V6 early genII. But I would keep the genII t-case. Superselect with AWD mode is the shiznit... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> Don't wanna lose that to the old part-time system.

Yeah, but did they ever put them behind the 3.5 in the Gen2's in the US? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

According to Alldata, yes, there was a manual transmission in a 96 SR <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> Didn't check any other years. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/patriot.gif" alt="" />

They do exist, but are super rare. I have seen more Ferrari Enzos on public roads (not counting the Ferrari show in NOLA) than manual gen2s.
I just want to tell you both good luck, and we're all counting on you.
