1995 AWD turbo auto, to 5 speed manual - January 19, 2009 06:08 am UTC

I have an 1995 eagle talon awd turbo the trans just stopped working. So i was wondering if it would be easy to just buy the 5 speed and swap it in? Are the any modifications needed.
Any help would be appreciated.

You need to get a lot of parts besides the tranny/ xfer case.

The clutch pedal assembly, clutch MS cylinder, slave cylinder, shifter base, shifter cables, manual ECU and those are just on the top of my head. Im sure im missing something else, let someone else chime in.

I'm pretty sure the rear end is different too.

The transmission, transfercase, rear are all different.

You will need an entire drivetrain from either a 95-96 awd or 97-99. They also are not interchangable between the 2ga and 2gb years.

The ecu is the same between auto and manual 95-99 dsm's.

Then you will need the clutch pedal assembly, clutch MS cylinder, slave cylinder, shifter base, shifter cables.

IF you have all the parts it is an easy swap. Also if you are looking for a donor car there is a 1995 Awd for sale in the Hamiliton Kijiji for $1000.
