    LOL... you actually made me laugh out loud.

    My ultimate goal for this Trooper is to make it my "family" vehicle. The VX isn't very easy to get children under 4yrs old into...let alone into child seats.

    But, if I'm going to get a Trooper, I really want a sunroof and/or leather. I could live without one or the other.......I suppose... LOL

    I would "assume" that the swap would work either way. Small modifications might be nessisary to the linkages and center consule of course. Of course I don't know this as fact though.

    I've got a bunch of parts laying around the garage from my Troopers auto>5spd trans swap, let me know if you want any. You should try to pull the auto wiring harness from another Trooper. If it's a 00+, the ecu's are swappable and I can't see a problem with doing this. I don't know about the 98-99s though, might have to do some wiring.

    Definitely... actually it will be 2x the work (min) since the Trooper will need to be fully functional as well.

    Thank you!
    I'll let you know. It'll be a couple months before I'm ready. I'm in research mode right now.
