The are the same but Whirlpool beefed them up in the mid 60’s according to John Lefever/Combo52 and improved some of the tolerances on the parts but otherwise are the same mechanically. Bought a good used transmission off of eBay for my ‘63 Whirlpool and I didn’t have to make any modifications to it when I installed it back in the machine and the reason why I had to end up replacing the transmission is the top of the agitator shaft got a little damaged when I tried removing the suck on agitator drive block and the original transmission is still good but will need a replacement agitator shaft if I ever want to use it again.
