You will probably need a driveshaft from a ton truck with an automatic (different lengths), PCM (no automatic shifter is built into a 5 speed pcm), some extra wiring (lacking in the 5 speed for the automatic) , and a steering column. There may be more but at least this much is needed for this swap. The 5 speed 3/4 tons came with a dana 80. The 3/4 ton automatics came with a dana 70. All ton trucks came with a dana 80. Since the dana 80 has a thicker middle your driveshaft probably will not be the same length as the automatic version. Measuring would let you know for sure.
