Is the 84 car using a torque arm? If so then I think yes. They are both 7.5 rears and I know they accept the same lower control arms. You will be missing the abs reluctor wheel(s) though. 98 and up is a two channel vs 93-97 single.

Yes it's a torque arm disc brake rear. I think it's the Aussie version which is supposed to be better? My friend grenaded his rear at the track and I'm gettn ready to scrap this car so if it fits it would be great. Would the abs swap over from his brakes/rotors?

3rd-gen and 4th-gen rear ends will interchange but the 4th-gen is about 4" wider. It will require different rims or spacers.
