Hey all, ive got a 93 surf 3litre TD and am wanting to convert it to manual transimission, i was just wondering if any one else has done this and how they went about it,

Are the tansfer, gearbox and pedal assembly from the 2.8 surfs or the australian 3litre hiluxs the same

Ive got a 1993?4?5?6? surf halfcut 3.0TD manual- its got an R151 gearbox behind it, which is what the 3.0TD prado runs..

Your best bet would either find a 3.0TD manual surf thats been rolled, and rob the gearbox from that, or see if one from a prado will fit.

A 3.0TD hilux runs an R150 gearbox, which is whats behind the V6 in a 4 Runner.
