Pete M Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Yes. Extra bonus points if you get them from a Wrangler. There are differences from the XJ/MJ versions that will have to be worked around (trans mount, t-case shifter linkage, trans shifter tower/stick) but the YJ/TJ trans clocks (rotates) the t-case up a bit which equates to a bit more ground clearance. :brows: And if you're going with leafs, you'll want to strengthen up the front frame.

jeepaholic Posted August 19, 2008 Author Share Posted August 19, 2008 so.......I reckon I am gonna need the computer and harness for it as well...Right. :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Huh? A manual tranny is a manual tranny. No computers involved with our Jeeps. I think the only wiring I did was to splice the backup lights into the new transmission's switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
