I'm guessing that the 92 is a 4.3 not a 4.6. The 94 should have a 4l60e trans, the 92 should have a 700r4 trans. The 94 is an electronic shifted trans, the 92 is a cable operated trans. Can it be swapped, probably, will it be worth the headache, probably not. I personly have this same problem going on right now and have opted to just spend the cash on the transmission that I know will work in my 94. Beside's that how many transmission's do you want to swap?

IIRC...both of these have the same transmission....a 700r4....I think they switched to the 4L60E in late 1995 early 1996 MY...again IIRC. If you have a throttle valve cable hooked to the throttle body on both of them, then you should be able to do a direct swap.

Both of my 94's have 4l60e transmissions in them. 1 is 2wd 1 is 4wd, neither is tbi. I have yet to see a 94 model tbi. I'am not saying they didn't make them, just haven't run across one yet.

yea from what I can see they quit using the tv cable after 1992....my mistake I thought they used it until at least 1995....sorry for the mis-info. By the way, they did offer 2 engine codes in 1994 Z which is CPI, and W which is TBI.

I don't now if they are interchangeable, but.....
Measure the length of the transmissions. The 2wd from the tail end to the engine block, The 4wd, well its got a t case in the back. measure the drive shafts too. Also, check wher the tranny and engine bolt holes are the same places, (on the block...)

If they are both throttle body like my 91's are they are a vin Z. If they are both cpi like my 94's are they are vin W. So in theory if they have the same vin code it should work.
