Welcome to DF
If you asking about the flex plate. 1996 thru 1997 1/2 need to replace the flex plate when you replace the transmission. Also the pins going the TRS are not the same either. The early vans have round pins and the newer vans went to flat pins. There is an updated jumper connector for these transmission. If you need the part number i do have it.
