Default 1985 ram 350

I have a 1985 Dodge RAM 350 "Power RAM" with the 4x4 shifter on the floor. It has the 727 TorqueFlite Automatic 3 in it. I was wondering if it is possible to swap for a manual trans (yes I will cut a hole in the floor). Will the clutch pedal and shifter fit in with the 4x4 stick and Ram-Trac 4x4 or will it be impossible. Thanks in advance.

I'm sure it will. Will it be worth the effort? Only you can decide that.

Oh yeah very doable. Spline count on the input from the transfer case might be different between auto and stick.
