    The parts books on Ricambi America are a great source of info in cases like this. If something has the same part number through all the years, it's generally an indicator that it remains unchanged.

    I haven't done any research, but from memory the only difference is that the '95s have a slightly taller 6th gear. 96-99' were one tooth lower in 6th than the '95s. You should be able to swap a trans from one year to another, but I can't speak to the rest of the internals being identical. The cases will fit from one year to the next though in the chassis.
