How difficult would it be to swap an automatic with a 6 speed? My master game plan is to take out my automatic and trade or sell it while it still works and put a 6 speed in with a southbend dd clutch to handle the performance mods from my engine. Have any of you done this or know how much this would cost?

I can't help you with your question, but what will you be doing with the truck? Sled Pull?

sledpulling and pulling a 6k dovetail with 18 rd bales or jd w/ baler mostly trans gets to 230 degrees right now and that only on a 30mile drive with the trailer

Gotcha. Just making sure you were not thinking about drag racing...

AndyD

nah im not too big on drag racing, i can shift pretty quick and around here i had a 99 f350 with a 140horse ts on it and beat most of the trucks in town lol but i plan to just pull

Member cbrahs is doing the same swap to his 2007. He does have a thread that lists ALL of what you will need to get it done, the parts list might be a good help for you to know everything needed.

cheapest way is probably to sell your truck and buy a 6 speed.
