skybren Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I have a 1994 loyale 4wd auto. I have a chance to get a 1989 turbo auto. I guess these are 4eat. I have been told they are better trannys. I want to stay with auto because I am tired of shifting. Anywho can someone tell me what I will need to do this. will it bolt up to the rear . What parts besides tranny should I take, This is all new to me so I want to make sure I get everything I need, Also will this fit or will it be junk. I don't know I need advice, thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TROGDOR! Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 The 1989 turbo auto trans is probably a 4EAT, and in 94 they only offered the 3 speed in the Loyale. Sorry to break it to you, but if that's the case, this swap requires so much rewiring, you're better off not even bothering. The 4EAT takes a wiring harness as big as the engine's, has its own computer, and is also tied into the ECM I believe. If the 89 trans is a 3 speed, it'll be a direct swap- but you must make sure the diffs match. IIRC the 89 turbo is a 3.7 final drive and the Loyale is a 3.9, so you'd need to swap the rear diff too.
