ax15 ?
Got this setup also and DO HAVE PICS!!
Pic of the shifter location using the shifter handle out of a 96 Dakota
pic of the 5spd installed
The trany mount is somewhat crude but works for me, still in the process of making a better one!
Used the stock slave cylinder from the Dakota
and replaced the cable for the e brake to install the clutch master cylinder that I got out of a late 80s f250.
Did require some fab work and what I did was move the engine forward 1 inch by modifying the motor mounts and cutting only half of the torsion bar crossmember where the trany fits in , not completely because I didn't want to mess up the structural integrity of it. Other guys that did this setup did it a lot better than mine but I just did it this way. Cut the hole for the shifter and made a bulky goofy trany mount that I had no problems with even tho I beat the hell out of it for 2 years now.
