UNL1MTD Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I think I know the answer, but ... would a 4cy 5 speed work behind a 6 cyl? This is the only description I have of the rig that I'm considering taking the drivetrain out of. 1995 Jeep Cherokee 4-Door, Hatchback 4WD, 5-SPD manual transmission 4-CYL, 2.5 liter my rig is a 1987 Renix 4.0L 6 cyl, I currently have a BA10.

Pete M Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Even if you could (you can't), the AX-5 isn't capable of handling the 4.0's power. The axles from that rig should have 4.10s in them though. Depending on price, that alone could be worth the money. Then sell off the trans/t-case to someone with a 2.5 looking to convert. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNL1MTD Posted September 23, 2008 Author Share Posted September 23, 2008 yea I figured it would be an AX5, but I was hoping that they might have switched it to an AX15 some time in the early 90s. I do need the front 4.10 axle, as I have that as my rear currently and I thought I could get away with one cheap donor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 An AX-15 won't bolt to a 2.5L. (not without the complicated use of a Dakota bellhousing at least) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjtjnj Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Interestingly, if you had an AW4 auto trans, it can be used behind either the 4 or 6cyl engine, with a change of bellhousing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
