Hello all! I have a 1990 Volvo 240dl with a bad transmission, it has an Aw-70 trannie in it, but I have been offered an Aw-71 from a 940 turbo. Are these transmissions swappable, and if so are there any extra parts needed, and how long would it take? Or if anyone has an Aw-70, I would be pleased to know! Thanks. And you can also get ahold of me at sethneeley@woh.rr.com

The 70 and 71 uses the same housing, linkage, etc., and would bolt right up. The differences are internal.

Swap the torque converter too, and replace the rear main seal while the tranny is out.
