The 1998 had the AX4S transmission and the 2002 has the AX4N transmission. Simply put, it may physically "fit" but the transmissions do not interchange without substantial issues (mostly due to computer differences and the two having different driven sprocket tooth counts, you'll get a number of error codes at a minimum).
Here's an article that may help. It clarifies the driven sprocket tooth count issue that may or may not be an issue for you.

Yes it will but u may need to change the powertrain control module (computer) to make it work correctly.
