Why not go the whole hog and stretch it so you can have both manual and auto...
Now that would be stupid but there you go Matt, make that work lol

Has been done, have a very old (early 80's) overlander somewhere with a rangie that has BOTH an LT95 AND an auto. Owner apparently needed the auto because of polio or cerebral palsy (?) - couldn't use a clutch easily - but kept the manual for offroad gearing.Why not go the whole hog and stretch it so you can have both manual and auto...

I investigated this road a bit with mine, see my tag line. I was able to source a tdi ZF gearbox with about 140k's for about $1200, and they would give me $600 back for the R380, plus about $600 for the parts (pedal box etc..). Didn't have the cash at the time and went back when I did, but couldn't source the parts anymore. Then I lost my Workshop, so I gave up.
From What I gathered was that its not too hard a conversion, but very time consuming, You've basically got to strip the dash to get the pedal box in, plus the radiator or transmission cooler.
In the end I would of given it a go, but not an option now. Ritters wanted about $8000 drive in drive out.
