Th700r4, mount -93 internals into -83 core??
Can i strip my cracked 1993 th700 and place all the internals, servo, 30spline shaft, and valve body in a 1983 core?
Visually they look the same except for some minor changes, even the aux valve body fits. same measures.
I know that you are supposed to look for a -87 and newer core but they dont come easy here in Sweden.

I didn't think i was so bad in english that no one would understand what i'm writing..
Are the housings/cases interchangeable, i would like to reuse all the parts that you can unscrew from the -93 housing.
Or should i consider this summer dedicated to jackstands while i look abroad for a newer housing?

As long as you also change the ft pump with all of the other hard parts it will work . Be sure to double check the valve body for alignmnet holse as improvement was also done there .

All the parts i'll take from the -93 transmission.
Only the aluminium housing i intend to use from the -83.

the 93 pump cannot be used in the older case. you will have a major internal leak.

I now have a empty(low/reverse piston is left) case from a -87 will this be better to transplant my -93 parts to?
The ID of the -87 is -7FAM if it makes any difference.

the 87-up should be interchangeable, the only difference I can think of is the electrical plug in the case. 1 is a square 4wire the other is multi wire round.

Re: Th700r4, mount -93 internals into -83 core??
I have the electrical plug from the -93 so that is not a problem.
Something that got me wondering is the measures of the low reverse piston.
The newer -93 is approximately 1mm higher(or 0.0393")
But it shouldn't be a problem since the rear planetary holder is mounted inside and the parking lever(not sure about the word here) still reaches and locks in the splines.
The newer part nr: 8685550-12 is to the right in the picture and the -87 is to the left.
