Default tranny swap

So ive decided im going to do a tranny swap from a auto to a manual. Im going to slowly buy the things I need to do the swap that way I wont be broke But my problem is im a totall noob at this. So my question is what would I need to make this swap happen. I have a 97 4x4 single cab long bed. Ive herd guys need different parts for different trucks, for example shortning/lengthin your drive lines? If anyone could help me out with a parts list that would be great! Thanks!!

transmission, bell housing, pedals, hydralic assy, clutch kit w/ flywheel, shorten rear drive shaft, transfer case for manual or try to swap out input shaft on your current one(5-speed is 29-spline). where are you at? i have all the parts in oklahoma.

Im in california. Not planing on buying anything yet. Just trying to get all my ducks in a row before I start this swap. Besides the tranny what would be the most expensive thing I would need? Again thanks for helping me out!!

You should get the trans first, then your clutch ( go over boad here , can always grow in to the power it could handle) ... then all the periferial stuff
