For those who have already done this, what kit did you use,
ie has anyone used the ESM kit was it OK?
I believe frontline has a 6 month lead time.
Any other suggestions I already have a gearbox but not the short tail one.

Hi so just fitted one, believe it's ex dave manners /esm . All quite simple , came with a modified shorter handbrake, I don't find the gearstick a problem tbh full length box, clutch is a mechanical one using original mechanism, hydraulic would be a better option, the gearbox crossmember is not so good, we have strengthened this one by bracing it , JLH do a box one or make your own.
