New here - '90 legacy tranny ?s/help


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know which years might work for me if I need to replace the auto 4WD transmission? I have heard conflicting reports from a variety of sources: some say '90-'94 work and others say only '90 and '91, and '93 - '95?

 

it is non-turbo and 2.2L Legacy L

 

Also - if the '93-'95s might work do they have to be 2.2L? or can i swap one in from a 2.5L?

thanks - Bret

they'll pretty much all work.

 

The electronics have changed a little from year to year in how the TCU logic controls things, but you can pretty much swap trannies around fine, as long as the gear ratio matches. That's the most important part!

well.....depending on the year......you can figure it out....or by the owner's manual.

 

right now....all I have to offer is this vin decoder. There is probably one similar for the transmissions...

I suppose you could swap stuff around in the differential, but that's a fair amount of work....you'd be better just finding a different transmission.
