Have an 87 . With a T-5 in it. Want to swap it out with an AOD. Will the crossmember thats in it work or do I have to change it. Also the driveshaft. Will that work as well. Want an automatic in it. Can get the tranny for free and the T-5 is junk.:SNSign:

I used the driveshaft and crossmember on my AOD to T-5, so I would say it would work the other way too!

IT is a straight forward conversion, everything work with the auto,but will need a new computer. I also recomend Lentech for any parts you may buy for the AOD in the future.

T5 junk or not if it is free i'll take it.
