Re: transmission swap,will it work?

If they are the same trans it will work, for the most part. The wiring harness may be different, so you may have to do some wiring. Also, the 3.9l usually has the lighter duty A-500 transmission and the 5.2l (318) usually has the A-518 heavy duty trans. If the 318 has an A-500, then that may explain in part why you need a new trans, as the A-500 usually doesn't last very long behind a V8 that gets some serious use.
