The axles fit

The speed sensors are different, but attach to the same spot on the trans, you'll need to remove the electronic sender from the top/right of the front diff and put it where the speedo cable went on the Leg

Also, I sort of remember having to swap dipstick tubes, but I'm not sure which swap that was during, so check that out.

You'll want to use the SVX TC, but since the SVX trans was fried, at minimum you'll want to flush it out very well.

Are you using a 4.44, or a 4.11?
A 4.44 TQ is ok with a 4.44 trans, but I would bet money a 4.11 TQ wont last very long at all.

Do you know what it came out of?

Did you get the diff from the same car? Or, did you pull a 4.11 rear from another car?

To use the Legacy TC, you'll need a Legacy flexplate....just FYI.

And you HAVE to pull the gears out of the rear diff, so count the teeth on the ring gear, and divide that number by the number of teeth on th epinion gear, and that is the Gear ratio... (since you already told me that the tranny and rear diff came out of the same car)

And make SURE the TC is seated all the way befoe installing the tranny
