Default 05 Ram transmission swap

This will be the 2nd Transmission I have put in. I do a lot of towing figured it would be better to have Manual transmission. Does anyone know what the average cost is to do the swap? With a good clutch.

I don't think there is an average cost as I have not heard of any of these really being successful. You will need the pedal assembly from a 2500 hemi stick shift, the trans obviously, I'm assuming these use hyd clutches so clutch master and slave cylinders, remove the portion of your harness for the auto, new PCM or reflash yours to either ignore the lack of trans inputs or the program from a 2500 hemi stick, cut a hole in the floor or open it up if there is one, change the column, etc. The mechanicals are usually the easy part with newer vehicles, it's getting the electronics to play nice so your vehicle functions like it's supposed to.
