You'll need to put your VIN up here - as those are not the only references - I can't go by those.

There is very little info I have on this given that it's 25 years old now - but I know that there was a change during your build date for the 2nd gear ratio on the BE3 box for the XU10J4 engine. The gearbox reference for the 2lt engine I think changed from 20 CL 46 (20/37) to 20 CL 80 (23/43).

As for the the 5 and 6FG - I think these relate to the final gear and I can't find any references to those - but on the BE3 they have a push rod instead of cable operated - so I would doubt the other one would fit.
