'89 M5R2 in a '96?
I have a chance to buy a used '89 M5R2 trans. It will need a rebuild (just like my current '96). I was thinking of offering $50 for the used tranny and then I would be able to rebuild it at my leisure. I understand the backup light switch is in a different location - is there anything else? Will this tranny work out for my '96? Both our trucks are 2wd - the donor vehicle was an F150.
Thanks,
John

No, but that is not a bad thing - the speedo on your 96 truck is driven off the rearend. So the speedo drive hole in the 89 trans will need to be blocked off.
Here is a block off that should work:
D&D Performance - R75 Speedo Blockoff Plug
Oh and these guys should be able to answer any other M5OD questions - they work on LOTS of them. They have been very helpful to me in the past and are fair on their prices.
