Well, if it's "just switching the bellhousing," then that makes me feel slightly better. Yes...the Rocky is a manual as of now anyway.
The more I think about it, the more I think I'll go for it. I assume I can simply steal everything I need off of the Tacoma and then put it, as time permits, onto the Rocky and see how we go. Like...take the entire fuel system and use that on the Rocky.
One of the POs for my Rocky added a much-larger-than-stock gas tank, which is pretty securely mounted...but to access the sending unit and all that, cut a hole in the floor and put a piano hinge in to have access to it via this flap. It's not a bad job, actually:
