Can anyone help me out?
I need to know how much difference there is between an AW-4 from a 1987 and one from a 1991?
And can all of the sensors, vacume switches and NSS be interchanged?
What I want to do is have the trans from the 87 rebulit and then swap it into the 91.

Thanks in advance.

The trans and all of the sensors will change over....but your T-case will not. 87-90 have the 21 spline and the 91+ have the 23 spline.

From some of the posts around here, I get the impression that the AW4 doesn't like being rebuilt. I've seen a number of posts of people complaining that the rebuild only lasted a year or so. Not sure why.
