Default Grand Cherokee transmission swap

So long story short, I am in the middle of swapping my GC transmission. I have a 93 jeep grand Cherokee 5.2lv8 engine with a bad trans. I had pulled a transmission from a 94 grand Cherokee with the 5.2l V8 engine. the interchange years from what I've read are 93-95 for the 5.2 318 engines.(correct me if I'm wrong) . So today I pulled my original transmission set the old trans and the new/used trans I got side by side to kinda match em up !! Well let's just say they don't match lol. The original trans is a lot longer then the new trans they have the same bell housing bolt patterns same transfetvases that are jnerchangeable from what I can tell the original drive line is shorter then the new drive line that was attached to new trans in the 94 !!!

So I guess my question is is it possible that someone swapped a transmission from a dodge pickup into the 94 with the 318 engine and if so then It should just be a direct swap for me to correct

My understanding is the Dodge and Jeep 5.2L are different.

My understanding is the Jeep starter is on the passenger side and Dodge on driver side.
