ejndssn Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Here is my story sad but ture. My Tcase went bad and made a bunch of racket didnt have the time to do the swap my self at the moment since i initially thought that the throwout bearing was the culprit. So off the cottman trans. they have informed me that the clutch needed to be replaced and if i don't repair/replace the tcase i'll have to do another clutch job again. Here my question Can i use a tcase from a aw4 auto 94 and up or do i stick with ax-15 tcases only. I'll have to go to the JY saturday and see what's avail. I'll rebuild the other later. just need a quick turn around on this. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motion Offroad Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 They changed the spline counts on the TC's when they did away with the Renix (1990 (ish)). If you have a pre 1990 Jeep you'll need to find a TC out of a pre 1990 Jeep as well. The early models have 21 spline, the later models had 23 spline. The TC (242/231) is interchangeable among trannies. So no, they are not tranny specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjeff87 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 How did the t-case make the clutch go bad? X2.... I can help you swap a new TC into your rig for $100 (cost of a JY TC) and a 1/2 case of beer (my labor rate :D ) Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildman Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 How did the t-case make the clutch go bad? Easy answer..........He took it to Cottman Transmission :teehee: Motion is spot on, on his answer :thumbsup: You need to match what year your Transmission is, to get the correct output / input spline count.

Wildman Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Well......I was referring to what camjeep3 wrote :yes: Chatter could also be from the flywheel having hot spots, we covered this some time ago. The chatter would show up when you pulling off a dead stop, in 1st gear or reverse.......I have it on my DD, only because I didn't change the flywheel last year when I dropped a clutch plate in :roll: And your right.......some times we have to trust others, but we all know, that some of "them" places try to go for the gold when some one pulls in there shop :rant: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
