yes it will work, unless you have a carbed truck, then it will have forward shift t-case and you need top shift for the ealier trans and later injected trans. it will also be somewhat shorter. but no big deal. the shifter I believe will be in a slightly different place. if for some reason it is a side shift 4 speed you do not want it, top loader is better.

The 4spd is going to be shorter, So i would only do it if you are going to do dual cases, If not find a w-56 or R151f turbo tranny..
