Fiesta 2005 1.6 2nd hand gearbox replacement options

Hi new guy here, 

Hoping someone can help. I’m looking to swap the gearbox on my 2005 Fiesta 1.6 petrol 5speed manual for a second hand unit. I believe my car has the FYJB engine and the following part numbers for the gearbox:

98WT-7F096-AC

and

2S6R 7082 GO

my question is, how accurate do I have to match the part numbers for the replacement gearbox? Could I use a gearbox from a 1.6 petrol FYJA/B Ford Fusion up to 2012 with similar part numbers to the 98WT part number as a direct swap I.e. to keep final drive ratio the same etc?

many thanks in advance,

khuram

    None of those part numbers sound right.

    You should fit the exact same part number, the Fusion box will/may have a different final ratio and a box from a Zetec-S certainly will.

    I would imagine a 5-Speed 1.6 Focus box may be suitable too.

    Main thing is, just ensure the full part number matches, last letter can be higher
