Ive done 2 auto to manual conversions now.
The d/shafts are the same, the xmembers and rear mounts are the same.
The transfers are possibly the same.
You need the removable floor plate above the gear lever, they are different.
The flexplate/flywheel bolts are the same

Yes they seem to be. We swapped a 5 speed manual in place of the auto box last night on a LWB GQ. Everything bolted up fine.

When trying to get a new x-member for my GU auto I looked at a manual one and it was different (but only minor, enough to not allow it to work I would have thought). How come. I thought the GQ and GU chassis were near enough identical.
