I have an 87 nissan XE hardbody 4x4 2.4L 4 cyl. 5speed. I just bought an 87 SE hardbody with the VG30 3.0L V6 5speed. to make an engine swap. Can I drop the VG30 V6 into my XE replacing the 2.4L will it work with the transmission and rear diff ? I have in the truck now or will I have to swap everything? Any info would be greatly appreciated guy's. I am supplying the wiring harness computer and gauges from the VG30

You need to take the V6 trans as well for the swap. The rear axle will live.
