W56 wont work unless you get the transfercase with it, you probably have a G-series which has the chain driven case. Look in your door jam, the code for which trans you have is in it. W56 is a way better option though. And like wabbit said the R150 won't work but a R151f would.

I don't know about the G58 transmission, but make sure it's the right one. I've recently run into that with my W56. Turns out there's a W56-A, B,C, and D and they're not all interchangeable. Not even the dealership could tell me which one i have in my 89 pickup. All I was told was that it was a 'W series' so don't trust everything they tell you either.

The G-series uses a gear drive case as well.

And the W and G series use the same bell housing bolt pattern to the engine. They will interchange. The variances are shifter locations and positioning and possibly overall length.

But the R150 from behind a V6 will not interchange. Different bolt pattern.

I think the w56 also went forward shift t-case with the C series and later.

I have a 90 2wd Toyota p/u with 22re engine. It currently has a four-speed manual transmission. I want to upgrade to a five-speed tranny. I've spotted what I think is a five-speed in a 2wd 94 Toyota p/u in a salvage yard. How can I determine if it is a five-speed? Are there any badges to identify it?

Check the tag/label in the door jamb/striker area. If this is non-existent, try shifting thru the gears.

If it's still in the truck why not just look at the gear stick knob? Does it have a 5 on it?
