Did any of the

73 to 91 Burbs come standard shift. I am really wanting to buy a burb to match the wifes in a 4x4 version. But it would have to be a standard shift as I am way to hard on autos.

I think some did, but they are hard to find.

Yeah they did. We had a 86 that was a 3/4 ton 4x4 with an SM465 4spd. Used to be a city truck i think it was yellow with no frills.

Yeah. I converted my Burb to a manual a few years back (it's now got an auto in it) and I bought the pedals and parts from a 73-87 truck and bolted them in.
