Default stick shift in a ecsb?

i tried to research but nothing found.. would it be possible to put a t-56 or something similiar in a ecsb? got an itch for a stick shift. anybody have one in the fatass truck? then if IT could hold up, think any of the clutches would?

it wouldnt be any harder to do than a swap into a rcsb I would think... just have to do something with the console if you have one. maybe you could fab something cool up for it.

Like he said, I don't think it would be any different than a reg cab. I know 1TrueSS put one in his truck, might even have a write up on his site.

theres a member on here, retsell, who has an ECSB with a t56. He even made it so the shifter is on the console and it looks factory.
