i have a 85 nissan 720 petrol 4x4, the gearbox looses the gears if you try and change gear in a hurry {just like a ford toploader if the shifter is worn} this is a borg warner type 4spd box , would it be just as ezy to replace for a 5spd ????

Good Day Mate! 5 speed requites a shorter drive shaft relocated cross member the Nissan manual transmission is a tunnel designed it is not to hard to rebuild But I warn you 21 year old truck it will be hard to find parts.

I don't know nissan vehicles well, but it is likely that a 5speed would be longer so the tcase would have to be moved back and new crossmember fitted. ALso you would then have to modify your drive shafts accordingly.It may be cheaper to fix what you have and trade it for a 5speed that you want.

You will have to change the cross-member which involves some welding.

You may just need new selectors put into you existing box.
