Hello all, i haven't been to the junk yard yet to look around.. Thought i would ask while im at work before going. I have a GL wagon (1987) with the stick shift 4wd 5 spd tranny. Can i use any tranny that fits an EA82? Like from a newer push button Loyale? or does it have to be stick shift. I'm hoping to get to picknpull sometime this week to find out myself. Any help is appreciated!

depends...you can use any transmission you want if you got enough skills.

 

any EA82 or ER27 transmission is going to bolt up to the EA82 and fit rather easily. a loyale transmission should bolt up just fine, the button can be wired in later...or heck you can even put a manual lever in or your only controller for the 4WD lock.
