Re: Auto to manual tranny
I don’t know the specifics on your truck but I am assuming it’s a 2wd ½ ton. If so, I would look for a NV3500 5 speed from an 88+ full size truck. It won’t be a direct swap into your truck but a lot of guys have done it. The transmissions are pretty easy to come across and I believe they were offered in the S-10s as well. You will have to make custom transmission mounts, linkage, and driveshaft just to name the major stuff. If you are looking for something heavier duty for towing or offroading I would go with a NV4500. You can search this board a little and find lots of info on both swaps.
