In other words, the differential came apart and blew out the case. Yes you can use a transmission from a SXT or a PT. You may need to use the torque converter from your old transmission and make sure the pin connections are the same too.

Ok this is an R/T and is also a 5 speed. I was told the only thing that would fit or bolt up to the block was another r/t trans. Since the 1st 3rd and 5th gear ratios are differen... So with that being said where do I find the parts if I'm going to rebuild this or even buy a new one...

There are only two different standard transmissions for Neons. THe T350 is used on all non-SRT models, while the T850 which has different gear ratios and a limited slip differential is used in SRTs. The R/T uses the T350 tranny, if I'm not mistaken. Although, even if it didn't a T350 should bolt up to the block.

call the parts or service department at the dealership and find out what type of transmission the R/T can use then call around to get one.
