yes you can change the auto to manual hubs,
Or you can pull the auto hub off and dig out all the old grease and add new grease and you might get lucky and it will work fine.
The STX Package was made to compete with the Chevy S10 Baja, to have a sport Ford Ranger, you got Better Shocks, springs Etc, like mentioned already and then the Graphics on the Side. Also you could get a Factory Brush Guard, Roll Bar With Lights and a rear Tube Bumper. In 88 they Also Made STX High Rider that had a 1.5" factory Lift installed only avaible in the Standard Cab Ranger though.
good luck sublime out.

there is a swap from auto to manual here,
http://www.shockersgarage.com/Autohubswap.html
also the STX Package was made to compete with the Chevy S10 Baja, to offer a ford ranger Sport Model, you got the better Shocks, Springs, Etc already mentioned, and had the options of a factory Brush Guard and Roll Bar with lights if you wanted. also a 2 tube's style rear bumper. and the Graphics on the side. In 88 the Ford also made a High Rider STX Option on the regular Cab rangers that had a factory 1.5" lift installed
hope this helps you out, also you might get away with just taking the auto hubs off removing all the old grease and adding new grease might also solve your problem.
good luck
