Tranny Swap: AW72L from 87-740 into my 90-240(Aw70)

I want to make sure Im not overlooking anything. Heres what I know:
*The 87-740 came with the german made tranny. I got rid of the german and installed Aw72L.
*Now I want to remove the Aw72L from the 87-740 and install it in my 90-240(Aw70).

Im thinking this will be a direct swap. The only issue, Im thinking, will be to
install the crank sensor from the AW70 into the AW72L(there is a space for it).

Im assuming the kickdown cable is the same?

Please comment if there is more I should be concerned about on the swap.



The fate of the 740 is undecided, but its no longer useful for me. It has a very strong engine(270000), solid, but flawed body(been hit , at lease, twice,though not so noticeable). The tranny from the 240 has intermittent first to second shift issues.

Thank you
And happy new years all!
