84 to 87 tranny swap

[tmar04]

just one question. will 84 5 spd manual tranny swap into 87 with no major problems? thx to all. this is B2, of course.

I sold my auto trans 1984 b2 with a 2.8 to a buddy and he put it in his 1988 b2 with a 2.9 no problems

i belive the slave cylinder will be differeent the 84 should be external and the 87 has an internal slave i dont know if that is interchangeable but other than that it should bolt up.... not sure if u will need the driveshaft from the donor or not though

I thought the bolt patern on the 84 wich had the 2.8 was diferent than the 2.9. I dont know for sure just what I was told or read somewere
