What els would i need to Swap to a 5spd or 6spd transmission, and where could i find a built one that will be cheaper than a delership? and are there any modifications that have to be done to the truck like drive shaft and anything else?

trying to see if it would be cheaper to do a swap or buy or build my auto, becasue i want to countinue to get more power but as it is right now im pushing the stock transmission.


Thanks,
Lonnie

I'm not sure if you are interested in going to an automatic transmission but here is a link to a company that builds very high quality transmissions for the Dodge Cummins Diesel and will warranty it for I believe 100k miles.
