I think the trans and bellhousing would cover it, unless for some reason you needed a new pressure plate or something. I've got a copy of the '91 FSM, if you need anything from it, let me know and I'll try to get it scanned for ya.

I think the '93 trans is stronger than the '91 trans. One other thing to measure would be the driveline. Over on Dak-Dur, a fellow with a '91 swapped in a '93 tranny and had to have a new driveline made. His, however, is a lowered 2wd.

They will interchange with no problem just remove the sensor and housing that is bolted on the side of the tranny and gear and install the Pieces exactly how you take it off.
