Default Transmission swap for a 94 3.3 41te

Great info Jackster had already found everything except the 4 types of cases. What I’m curious to find out is what else would bolt on to my 94 3.3 caravan. Apparently the 3.3 and 3.8 case is the same and all models from 90-95 should be the same. But what about a 2005 Neon? I don't know the engine size, but why limit the choices to 3 years (I wouldn't bother replacing with a junked 89-92 due to all the issues during that time with the a601). If I can find a 3.8 or a 3.8 liter that bolts up why not go with something made this decade? Or does none of the cars on your list have the 3.3 or 3.8 except for the 90-95 models? Or could I just change out the par that the cv joints mount to and everything would then work? would the speed sender from my van now work in another transmission? I have difficulty seeing how a transmission that is used in 20 different vehicles over 18 years would not just bolt up and go. where is the flaw in this? any help would be appreciated as I’m having to find a replacement after hearing that horrible noise that was mine dying. if I could afford the rebuild, I prefer that but can't wait for a month to get the money. hoping to just get the replacement and have that last until I can have the old one re-built. I'm asking about limits because the first yard I went to only had one to replace mine that was not older than 93 and if it doesn't work I get a credit at the yard. not too bad if I didn't have to actually have this tranny working. I can't afford to wait 3 or 4 weeks until another shows up and spend the time pulling another dud.

cuz chrysler wanted to protect the 3.3s & the 3.8s by having a weak A604 with its own bellhousing pattern take all the abuse, if it shared any other pattern, that meant someone could put a manual tranny in, & chrysler, just doesn't want anyone to truly see the potential of a 3.3/3.8 motor with a 5 speed, & have fun too, grrr...

BTW a 3.8 is a bored & stroked 3.3, everything else is the same, even the cam

& supposivly, altho not confirmed, that a 5-speed from a 2.7L stratus will bolt up, & i sure hope it does, cuz i'm sick of dealing with the A604s
