The center diff is going in a friends 99 legacy outback. Binding on turns, so the viscous coupling is shot. It's a phase II transmission in it, so it has the redesigned center diff and transfer housing. I can get a 95 tranny for cheap, but I know the center diff is different. Can I swap the diff and the housing from the phase I tranny onto the Phase II? Or are the shafts that go into the center diff different too?

Might be simpler to just swap the entire 95 trans in place?

 

If the 99 has a hydraulic clutch you would just have to retrofit that and speed sensors (i believe the newer electric ones just thread right in place of the older cable driven jokers.
