Suspension swap-over
The manual cross-member is different from
the 3/4 speed autos.
Porsche moved the manual forward about 30mm - not just the
mount, as the diff/axle line is noticeably more forward than the
auto.
 This
pic was taken after I had lined up the bell-housing, torque
tube, of both trans & gearbox. Note where both the gearbox
rubber mounts are and the CV joint plates. The manual is more
forward than the auto - why?? - must be better something.
 So,
you must strip down the cross-member, remove trailing arms, top
link - out to the disk brakes and springs/shocks and handbrake
cables and transfer them to the manual cross-member.
