Yes I have done it and I can tell you how to do it. I did it on my 97. Not sure if it is the same on your 98.

The wiring is simple. The new master slave cylinder assembly has a black plug on it by the clutch pedal for the starting circuit. If you want the cruise control to work you cut the plug off. Take 1 black wire to ground and the other wire you run down to the 3 wire plug for the neutral safety switch/back up wires on the auto. The center wire is black and white and you run the wire from the clutch pedal plug down to it and connect them. The other two outside wires on the plug are for the back up lights. One is green and brown and one is purple and brown.

Pete97 Thanks For The Post. When I Get Home Tonight I Will Wire It The Way You Described. It Is Actually On My Brothers 97 2500. So Far We Didnt Pay Much Attention To It, But We Took It On A Trip The Other Day And That Was Kind Of A Bummer. Since I Just Be Become A Member, I Decided I Would Try This Out. Well, My Lunch Break Is Over So I Will Post Back After I Get To Work On The Truck. Thanks. Tim
