89-91 5-speed will go in. 92-94 5-speed will need the axles and hubs to go along with it.
i'm trying to find other trannies to swap in because even the 5-speed aren't as strong as they should be. ****ing borg warner

thanks guys...I have an automatic (obviously) with +/- 170,000 and just did a rebuild on it. I am still experiencing the same problems i did with it before i did the rebuild. Some of these problems are skipping between gears, where it will shift from 1st into neutral and at that point i let go of the gas so i don't blow the engine and wait for the tranny to behave. Another one is that sometimes when i stop at a light, then take my foot off the brake when its time to move, the car wont go! i give it a lil gas and it still doesnt go. After doing this in like 10-20sec after, it sounds like the gears change (VERY LOUD) and the car jerks and takes off....very bad. So i'm looking for a 5sp tranny right now not only cause of this, but its just a good time to do the swap.

YOU did the rebuild or a shop did it?
bring it back if a shop did it.
