On some trucks its not all that bad to change them on others its a night mare BTDT a few times. You have to change flywheels, also need all the clutch pedel linkage and if the holes are not alraedy drilled for the parts you need to drill them. Also a truck with a auto tranny has higher gears in the rear end then in one that came with a 4 spped whcih can be good for gas mileage but can cause problems if 1st isn't low enough in the tranny, but most 4 speeds for a truck 1st is a granny gear so it works out well. My 1980 chev has an auto in it at one time and it works well for hauling tractor and I also get around 18MPG
