1g transmission questions, please help

My car is a 1991 Eagle Talon AWD 5 speed


How many spline should a 91 be and what does the spline count refer to (is it input shaft output shaft or t-case output?)

Trying to figure out what I should be looking for for a trans

[Matt D.]

The spline count refers to the shafts going to/from the transmission and transfer case. There was a split in 91 depending on when the car was made, earlier cars (89-91) are 22 splines and 91+ had 23.

Is there a way I can tell without taking the t-case off???

No.

Its 5 bolts if your DSM is all together + 2 for the downpipe to swing it out of the way.
