88 pickup 5 speed in 82 pickup?

Hi I currently have a '88 pickup with a good 5 speed transmission and bad motor, and came across a deal on an '82 with good motor but bad 5 speed transmission. Both pickups are 4 wheel drive. guess what I am wondering is there any difference in the mounting of these two transmission to where it would make a difference in putting my '88 transmission in the '82 pickup

Thanks and best regards,

JP99

Thanks bud, I have both pickups so hopefully one of the cross members work and hopefully the driveshaft if not I guess I'll have to have one made xD.
