Drive shafts were the same, when i did my swap. so i wouldn't worry too much about those.

you'll need the sub harness that goes on the trans. (has 4wd indicator and reverse light crap. when i did my swap i swaped in an engine with a 5 speed engine harness (slightly different) so i'm not 100% sure the harness will plug into yours. i'm prretty sure it will though.
 
For the pedals its easiest to get the whole bracket with pedals out of another truck because it already has the studs welded to it.you can use the auto bracket as a template because it has holes there the studs would be.

The trans mount is different but you CAN use the same cross member. to keep it clean you'll want the shift boots and bezel for the interior.

you need to jump the auto trans neutral saftey switch. if you have a fsm you can find the wires where they come out of the computer or you can short them at the plug off of the engine harness where it conects to the trans sub harness.

My sig is my build thread. i did the 5 speed swap on my truck. theres not a whole lot of info in it but feel free to pm me if you have any more questions.
