Transmission change and shift linkage differences?


Recommended Posts

Bought a used 5 spd. transmission to put in my '96 Legacy. The used unit is from a '98 Legacy, a TY752VACAA. Much to my horror while getting ready to install it I found the shift linkage is actually different than the one on my '96. When I get the correct linkage will it still work on this newer transmission. Are the linkages interchangeable on the transmissions? That is once I get that stubborn pin out to remove the wrong linkage... grr. Thanks for any advice.

I should have mentioned that the old transmission was turned in when I got the new one. Never though it would be an issue. Removed just about everything else from it. Lesson learned.

Turned in to where? Too long ago to call them and say, "Hey I need to swap a few things off that old trans real quick to make this one work"?

 

Knock the roll pins out of the knuckle on the selector shaft and the knuckle will pull off. Possibly with some persuasion because it's probably rusted on.
