Thirds (3rds) - What's the diff & will it fit?

[longarch]

I've searched this forum for sound technical information regarding Gen 1 and Gen 2 thirds and have been unable to locate precise information.

1) Can someone list the years, tranny, and ratios for all Trackicks?

2) What Gen 1 3rds work in a Gen 2, if any?

My personal endeavor and desired answer is will 3rds from a '95 manual (5.12:1) slide right into the diff housings of a 2000 Tracker auto with 2.0L engine? Will the axle/CV splines match up?
