Had one for 6 years on my 72 2wd cheyenne. Used a trans from a 96 chev truck with hydro clutch. Mounted the master cylinder behind brake boster using the original manual clutch linkage rigged to activate. The 5 speed worked great but the clutch was a bit hard to push in.

If you don't want to cobble one together out of used parts, check out the setup from McCleoud. It uses a hydraulic throwout bearing..Summit carries it..It's pretty sweet.

i've had a jeep w/ the hydro bearing it in it and it is the smoothest by far but if you're hard on them like i am when it comes to shifitng. they have a tendency of blowing out a couple of orings a year and they cost alot to replace, not counting the time to remove the tranny to replace the bearing.
