Ok, I know this is probably a very easy question, but I can't find any definative information through a search. I have a 22re with a 5spd, I just bought a 22ret with an auto.

I want to put the 22ret into my 5spd truck. Now, I have found that the 22ret came with a r151 trans (23 spline), and my 22re trans is a w58 (or is it a w56??? I am not sure, whatever was stock for 1986) (21 spline).

Can I just use my 22re flywheel, clutch, disk, and w58 (or w56?) with the 22rte? I know it won't be as strong, but thats not really a concern. If this doesn't work, how about a 22rte flywheel, p-plate, and 22re disk?

As for the auto trans, it is for sale if anyone is interested (located in Winnipeg, or Calgary).

Wait... I think I figured it out. It's the output shaft on the r151 that is a different spine count. So, this means that using a regular w series 5spd with a 22rte I can use either the stock 22re clutch flywheel setup, or the larger 22rte setup.

Is this correct?? Anyone can confirm it? I need to buy some parts tomorow or Tuesday.

i am trying to find that same info, cause i have a 22re engine and was wondering if i can use a 22rte flywheel, pressure plate and disk with the stock w series tranny will it bolt right in with no problems or would i have to get a turbo bell houseing

I managed to mate my 22rte to the w series transmission with no trouble at all. I used the 22re flywheel and clutch set. From what I gathered, and what I saw within the transmission you should be able to interchange any of these parts with no modification. If you want more information go to www.22rte-trucks.com , there is alot of good information on that site.

Everything you have is a bolt on deal. No modifications. The only thing you need is a driveshaft out of a 4 cyl truck which are easy to find.

if u want to keep the turbo flywheel and pressure plate, get a clutch disc for a 92.5-94 22re, its the same size as the 22rte disc with 21 splines.
