Massage the tunnel, make a new gearbox mount, get the jackshaft shortened.

I don't have photos sorry, but it's a fabrication job.

Do you already have a 1.6? if not you'll need a "lucky 13" adapter.

As steve said, Crossmember and jackshaft. Tunnel will need widening, you can remove the remote shifter with a little work, and you will need a 1.6 flywheel and clutch.

If you are considering toyota transfers or double transfers, buy this and a yota box.

Did you buy a manual box?

Seperate the gbox from the transfer, Motor/gbox adaptor plate, new gbox mount, wider tunnel, different shifter position through floor, I'm not sure about jackshaft to sierra transfer.

You don't drive it hard enough for lux stuff
