Hello, I'm looking for information on wether or not a similar model 1998 Subaru liberty Rx 2.5L gearbox is s interchanable with the Legacy GT 2.0L gearbox.
Gearbox codes are;
Liberty 2.5L - TY752V4DAA
Legacy 2.0L - Ty752VBBAA
Ratios are the same, 4.11. the mounting looks almost identical ( I can't confirm because my liberty gearbox is still in the car and I can't find any photos of another).
The main reason for asking is I've been trying to hunt down the same box that is in my liberty 2.5L so i can swap it straight over, however I have been unable to find any for a reasonable price, and the only one I did find was $850, which honestly is quite ridiculous, considering I'm being offered a full gc8 WRX 5 speed with rear diff for that price. I just don't want to go through the hassle of doing the swap. The legacy gearbox is being sold for $500.
If anyone has information of wether these gearboxes are the same or if I'm able to get ahold of another liberty gearbox it would be much appreciated. Thank you.
