91 tranny in 90 FWD turbo

[Pimpin Dsmstyle]

I just installed a 91 tranny in a 90 turbo FWD laser. ( along with many other things). I messed up good and put gear lube in the bell housing.. haha laugh, newb mess up and it will cost more in the end.

It has a stock clutch that im sure is bad now. My questions are as follow ~

Do you need to swap any additional parts in order for proper engagement? Example shift linkage? I Left the 90 linkage in and it will go into gear but makes a sound EVERYTIME you put it into gear. This tranny was perfect.

If not, Any ideas why its making a grinding type sound? Keep in mind it does go into gears. I Havent attempted to drive it yet. Worst case scenerio, I just need it on the side of my house so i can use my garage for other things. Thank you for your time.

Shy of actually changing all the cables, shift box and shifter.....

I have gotten by plenty with just changing the little bracket on the tranny. I have a couple 91-94 style brackets. Swap me your 90 one (I'm out) and i'll send you this one. It puts the linkage back into alignment. I can elaborate if you want. Pics too.

elaboration would be good. So would pics. Feel free to post right in here. If that were the case, Id be willing to do that. However, I need this done fast.

Bracket, cables, and actual shifter to do it right (this will clear up your issues). The half-shafts are the same between those years so no worries there.

You can get buy using the 90 cables and shifter but swaping them would be the best way. I can elaberate on how I did it on my car when I have more time if you want.

any ideas and information is appreciated. I have a little bit more time to figure out what Im going to do so Id like to find a worth while method that is not too complex and doesnt take several hours. However, if complicated is the only way, so be it. Obviously im not afraid to try shit ;)
