82 & 83 SX/4 Compatability
« on: July 08, 2017, 01:19:28 AM »
Hey all,
I found another SX/4 in my area for sale. It's an 83 automatic tranny. Mines an 82 manual tranny. Both are 258's. How much of everything is compatibly?
It's in decent shape, missing a few things like the radiator, starter, and I think the alternator but other than that it's seems intact.
I need quite of A few parts for my 82 but want to make sure everything will work before I buy it.  Any insite on this would be great.

Thanks in advance.

Most everything will be the same, and should be compatible.
