Default 1992 mustang turbo swap question

hey there im possibly about to buy a complete 87' xr4ti, and im planning on swaping everything over to my 2.3 92' mustang. i know the engine and everything is pretty much the exact same but i was just wondering if the trasmission is a direct swap as well? since i know its not a t5. and my other question is would the rear gears hook up as well? thanks

The XR's had a T9. You need a T5. Completely different trannys.

Your Mustang T5 and bellhousing will bolt right up. The XR rearend will NOT work.
