The swap is VERY straight foward minus swapping the rear diff. You use all the same parts as the stock tranny. Your parking brake issue is something unrelated

not the parking brake. The switch to shift when pressing the brake pedal

So it will still be harder on the wheel bearings. But you still got me.

OK, so when you have the key on, and push the brake pedal, do you hear a click at your shifter?
You should. And you should be able to feel the solenoid movement through the shifter. btw, do your brake lights work?

sounds like your shift lock computer is borked... they go out all the time, any suby shift lock "should" work but try to find one on the network, they are easy to come by from 5mt swaps
