Has anyone done this to a 04 silverado? I am thinking of converting my truck to a manual and would like some advice/help if anyone has doen this.

Please include does and don'ts

 

Here is some info. There is more here if you spend some time to use the search like I did.

Absolutely amazing. Can you use the cross member from our trucks to bolt the T56 in?

 

You have to do no mods at all to a 5 speed crossmemeber but you can make a bracket to adapt the auto crossmember I believe.

 

I have an extra 5spd crossmember if you want it. I didn't use it, because it wouldn't fit on my truck. I have a write in .doc format if you want me to email it to you.

The bigger issue is mounting the clutch pedal and clutch master cylinder.

 

Oh yeah, don't forget tuning too if you want your SES light off and your speedo/odo to work.

 

I got my speedo to work fine by changing the # of reluctor teeth on the speed sensor in the tune but I havn't gotten my cruise control to work yet
Of course it hasn't really ran in the last 3 months to work on it either!

 

Now it is sounding like a true PIA

 

Now, how about putting the 5 or 6spd manual in AND be able to keep the transfer case for the 4x4!? Now that would be AWESOME!!!! I would love to have a manual in my truck but, i think i will just settel for adding a Rachet shifter though instead...

 

My cruise works, but I have no reverse lights!? I guess I just got lucky with my swap with all the parts working.
