Any pictures would be appreciated - Rich

But it did work, what year MJ do you have?

Thanks everyone. I do have the bellhousing, but I want to switch over to the external. Have the shifter also, but no vent - that is ok ;) . I will try to use my old cross member. I am getting a new 23 spline shaft from NOVAK. Anyone have the part number on the AX15 trans mount?-Rich

I have never seen that, I love that clown. He did get his nose pulled off by the balck girl, was that the arse kick?

:D -< YAAH-Hoooo

I have a few questions about the AX15. I know a few of you on this board have done the swap, so I am seeking your wisdom before I get started. I just picked up a 1990 AX15 from a 4X4 Cherokee. I have read that the older AX15's don't have a vent - mine does not. How important is this, and where is it located on the transmission? I would also like to know if the transfercase linkage from an 4wd AX5 would work? I know that they are similar in design. I will need the input shaft for my 231, the linkage for the transfercase. Will I need to get the AX15 crossmember? Or will my factory BA10 work? Anything else that I am forgetting? So, my questions are; 1) Do I need the crossmember from an AX15? 2) What linkage do I need to make the conversion work? 3) Where is the vent tube located on the AX15, and how impotant is it? Thanks, Rich

Anyone try, or have an opinion on the X-factor steering set-up at http://www.rockkrawler.com ?

Could you tell me where you were able to find new locks? I need to replace mine. Thanks, Rich

Very interesting.....thanks for that little tidbit of info :cheers: Jeff That is a nice tip! Looks like Friday I will have an A15 with bellhousing. This one came out of an XJ, so it should be a perfect fit. I have been waiting a while for a XJ/MJ specific AX15

Thanks for the input. I will check Novak out.

I would like to know how to properly identify an AX15 when it is not attached to the engine, or in the vehicle. I know how to tell the difference between a BA10 and the AX15, I want to make sure it is not an AX5 for the 4 banger. Thanks, Rich

Sweet, another Florida Comanche. I am in the clearwater area, so I will keep an eye out for you. You didn't happen to have some work done at gear works?-Rich

Just waiting to put mine in. Grant steering wheel on a new tilt column.

I removed the cover from the lock :D . It appears that the spring that controls the hole cover broke off and was blocking the way :eek: . The key works but I am going to need a new cover. Thanks for input, Rich

The lock itself is messed up. The key will not go into it and parts are rattling in the lock. WD40 aint gonna fix this. I removed both locks fron the doors.-Rich

I never locked the doors on my Comanche or looked at the door locks when I bought it. When the paint shop said they could not lock the DS door, I was shocked. It looks pretty messed up and useless. Does anyone know where I can get new door lock from? I went to the pick-n-pull to get another set but they do not have the keys in the cars :headpop: Maybe I can have them repaired? Thanks - Rich

I would do as Pingpong suggested and go through a RE dealer. With my 5.5 RE MJ kit, I got the Adj upper and lower control arms and cross member support. With the shipping it still was lower than the 300 off retail. Try DC4WD.com before you make your decision - Rich

I have got one on my MJ right now. It is a functional cowl hood, so it reduces engine compartment temperatures. I never like the way some of the XJ owners used one+ inch spacers to raise the rear of the hood up to get the same effect. It has the same lines as the original hood and the same mounting holes. The hood looks pretty tough on the truck to boot. The down sides - It is damn exspensive for a "look," even if it does keep it a little cooler. Over-all it is a bit smaller than the original, I guess to ensure the fit. It would have to have a 1/4'' or so added to the front to match the factory gap. Not really a big deal, but I was a bit PO when I mounted it and thinking about the P$.

I have seen a picture with what they said was a S10 bumper on it. Looked good and it may have been on this forum. Do a quick seach and see if it pops up. I have been looking at the S10 bumper in the pick-n-pulls to give it a try myself. They have the trucks supported on the bumpers so it isn't going to happen for me. I hope it works. Give it a try and let me know-Rich

I am selling a set of MJ bucket brackets if you were inerested. They are in the classified section-Rich http://www.comancheclub.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1484

Insted of dream manche, I should have used purple haze manche 4sale :razz: Few years back when I was looking at it, it had 33" tires and a turbo/supercharger on it. At the time, the Guy wanted around 7 grand for it :eek:

Somebody buy this and sell me the topper! It's the one I have been looking for. :cry: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1986-Jee ... dZViewItem

This has a PDF of all the info on the AX15, including an exploded view. Hope it helps, Rich http://www.pirate4x4.com/tech/billavist ... n_AX15.pdf

they look like american racing torque thrust D's. . . maybe II's, but; I think D's. Both are Very popular with the muscle car crowd. :thumbsup: Thank you! They are muscle car tough looking-Rich

Very nice! That looks brand new. Can you tell me who makes the rims on your YJ? I like them :cheers:
