Installing clutch linkage

I'm considering swapping cabs, putting an '78 automatic cab where I now have a 4 spd 4 x 4 cab. I'm thinking it will be a matter of installing the under dash clutch linkage from one to the other so I can keep the 4 spd. Can anyone confirm? I'm also assuming the floor pan will be the same from auto to 4 spd (haven't pulled the mats up yet). Here's hoping it's an easy swap.

Yes, you need to remove the whole pedal assembly & replace it with an auto set-up

floor pans are the same, the transmission pan bolts to the floor.

swapping the pedal asseblies involves removing most of the dash.

Hmmm, the plot thickens. Is that the only way, or does it just make it much easier?

Thanks, you da man.
I need to stick my head under the dash on both to compare. Something tells me I got a sore back coming up.
