A body 4 speed in a truck. Can this be done?

I've got an A body 4 speed OD under the bench in the garage that has been begging me to do something with it. Has anyone every installed one in a truck? In a perfect world a Truck 4 speed would be a direct swap. However, this is what I've got to work with. Would the shifter come out of the floor too far forward? If so, do you suppose I could just build a custom shifter with a few funky bends to clear the dash? Has anyone done this? Thanks.
