Not sure on the Matty, but most AMC used the GM Saginaw box. Mid 90s Jeep quick ratio boxes are a popular swap but sometimes one mounting hole is off, which requires some fabrication. I did this in my '72 Javelin and love it.

Most early boxes (68 up, all models) will interchange, the box adapter to the frame is unique for big car, compared to small body and AMX and Javelin.

If you find a compatible unit and need it rebuilt, I just used powersteering.com and for the pump and the gearbox (had it changed to fast ratio) and they did great work.
