Will A 86 Trans Fit A 91

[BRYANS93]

I Just Picked Up A Free Truck Its A 91 Ranger 2wd 5spd With A Locked Up Trans, However I Have A Good 5spd Trans Out Of A 86 Ranger 2.3 2wd. Ive Checked And The Only Difference With The Clutch Is The T/o Bearing. Will these trannys swap out?

Any Help Would Be Great
Thanks

The '86 should be a FM145 or FM146 wheras the '91 will be a Mazda tranny. As long as you swap hydraulic line over as well it should go smoothly. You may have to swap over the crossmember. Double check the tranny length too though
