2nd gen trans swap question

So I've been looking at buying another truck for a while now and I can't find any 2.2's with autos around here so how hard would it be to swap the 5 speed out for an auto? It would be on a 2wd 98+ since thats what I'm looking for, thanks for your help.

I don't know about how hard it would be but I think the differential gears will have to be changed too. The ratio for a standard is different than the auto.
