REQUIRED...

Gearbox with bellhousing and transfer case with sticks
clutch pedal kit
slave cylinder
master cylinder,
slave to master cylinder hydraulic lines
manual flywheel
clutch plate
pressure plate
boot to suit gearbox and transfer case.
MAYBE new crossmember for gearbox if auto is different
console if you want.

I think thats it mate.. may have missed one or two bits..

Its a big job but may be worth it. Isnt it possible to have your tranny rebuilt and an extreme valve job to it??

You could always get a set of eyebolts and an a-frame and tow it all the way back yourself :). You'd need two drivers and alot of patients though.
