2006 tacoma auto to manual swap

hey there so I took on the task of manual swapping my 2006 tacoma has a 4.0 in it.
I happened to have an entire parts truck (2005 tacoma) to do the swap which made it nice for a few of the pedal mounts / ebrake

took me 3 days to swap everything
swapped both diffs
trans, transfer case
interior pieces

took about 6 hours to screw around with pedals and mounting tried to take a few photos for you guys

the factory connectors for the manual pedal where tucked in my harness so no need on adapting,only thing I had to extend inside truck was my e brake plug to reach new location

More pics! Good job dude!

 

Its the only thing I wish my truck had. Nice job!

 

Damn man props for having the balls and commitment to do that swap.

 

Congratulations you just devalued your truck

 

Yeah! Congrats and good work. Thank you for sharing.

Color’s go to correct holes on wires

Connect blue with white line to yellow wire to be able to shift into 4low

Run red and yellow wire to plug on right side of transmission to have reverse lights reverse switch manual trans manual transfer case output shaft face to steady bearing
(New length for top section of driveshaft)factory hole for reference on location for you guys

 

Will keep updating with photos trying to put all the info in this post I couldn’t find else where

 

Nice job on the write up, thanks for sharing.
Actually fortunate enough to find and purchase a 6 speed at the stealership, IMHO standard is the way to go.

 

I think you cut the Downhill assist switch connector instead of the clutch start cancel switch....

 

What're you going with for a shifter setup?
Stock TOB?
FJ assembly for the cylinder/pedal or just the doner 'Taco parts?
Big props to ya.
When mine finally goes - here's to hoping no time soon - looking at the RA62 for a swap.

 

Some information here that may assist with your write up . Good job so far

OP

 

I pulled all the pedals outta another Tacoma which was really handy for the swap, I was going to just use a wilwood pedal and then modify my brake pedal would be a easy option

the ebrake assembly would be the hardest part I think outta the system I’d say

 

I used a manual ecu and then did the paper clip Immobilize trick to get my
Keys to work, worked really well here are some photos

Would be pin 4 and pin 13 you have to jump for 30 mins with key in the on position
