Curious, what modifications were involved to do this Frank?

Nothing! It just bolts right up. Splines are the same, pump tube is the same and shift rod is in the same location. When I did it, I didn't even know that they had changed to a two piece drive shaft. Only way I found out was when I went to order a drive shaft seal. Woman showed me the diagram for a 1990 and it was different.
