Try this in the 6.5 engine forum, this is the classifieds. I know, they are kind of hard to tell apart.

I did it on my K3500. It wasn't that bad of a project. You have to have the bracket that the clutch and brake pedal goes into( they share the same shaft). Factory has a welded bracket to the firewall to bolt the pedal bracket to. If memory serves me right I used a piece of 1" box tubing welded to the firewall with a bolt welded to it, so that the pedal braket would bolt up in the right location. The other thing i had to deal with was the manual trans is about 1"-1.5" shorter than the auto so the carrier bearing needed to be moved forward. I used a piece of 3/8 plate steel.

I would be interested in the TCM and ESS if you want to sell it from the auto set up. I have an oil pump drive from my 96 to replace your ESS. Its a direct replacement.
Problem is I am leaveing in a couple hours for 3 weeks and don't know if I will have coumputer access. Talk to you guys then.
