A PM from Jerry:
"YES MANUAL SHIFT T/C WILL BOLT RIGHT ON, AND BEA RELATIVELY EAYS SWAP AS LONG AS YOU USE A 92-95 TROOPER OR 93-95 RODEO, ANYTHING LATER WILL HAVE THE SHIFT ON THE FLY MOTOR ON THE T/C AND THAT WILL HAVE TO BE WIRED UP TO WORK, EASIER TO USE THE MANUAL T/C ,,
DRIVE SHAFTS WILL HAVE TO MODIFIED, SLIGHTLY JUST THE LENGTH, I THINK THE DRIVE FLANGES ARE THE SAME ON THE V/X AS THE EARLY T/C , THE LATER ONES LIKE ON THE 98 AND UP TROOPER ARE MUCH BIGGER, I DONT THINK THE VX HAS THE LARGER YOKE FLANGES , BUT THEY ARE NOT HARD TO SWAP ANYWAY , ANY DRIVE SHAFT SHOP AND SW THEM ,
ANY OF TH E 5SPD 4WD MUAS WILL BOLT RIGHT TO THE ENG AND ANY 3.2 0R 3.5 FLYWHEEL AND CLUTCH SET WILL WORK, , THE PEDAL ASSY UNDER THE DASH IS ALMOST IDENTICAL FROM A TROOPER TO THE RODEO , WHERE IT BOLTS TO THE FIREWALL, BUT THE PEDALS ARE DIFF LENGTH AND DIFF ARCH , AND I AM NOT SURE OF THE ARC ON THE VX , PROB CLOSER TO THE SAME AS THE RODEO, THAN THE TROOPER , WHICH HAS A LONG PEDAL, ARM. ON THE MANUAL 5SPD YOU WILL PROB HAVE TO MODIFY THE CROSS MEMBER AT THE MOUNT , SINCE THEY ARE A DIFF LENGTH THAN THE TOD SET UP FOR THE MUA,"
I thought I had pics of the case I pulled out of a 93' Rodeo when we rebuilt my friends Rodeo but I don't. Here is an ebay link to a case from a 95' passport showing it's removable
