kmack Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 what specialty tools are required for rebuilding a transmision? and is the HO i6 a 4.2l? how many miles do you get out of the xjs and mjs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 -don't know, but sockets and snap ring pliers are on the list -Nope, the HO is a 4.0L -If properly taken care of, 200k+ miles is quite common. Accidents, rust, and misuse are the big killers of MJ/XJs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james750 Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Auto or manual? I wouldn't touch an auto with a 10 foot pole unless I knew what I was doing. As for a manual. you will need a press to get the gear sets on the main shaft off. The cluster shaft should be a solid one piece unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly true... more specifically, you need the press to get the gears back on. A gear puller will get them off. As for the cluster shaft, it is mostly a one piece, the 5th gear stuff will be separate, as the collar/synchro setup is on the layshaft. I'm basing this off of the AX-5, AX-15 should be practically identical, can't vouch for the BA 10/5 though. kmack, you are going to need basic sockets, snap ring pliars, possibly some torx stuff, and a very light touch when putting it back together. If you're referring to rebuilding a BA 10/5, your money is better spent throwing it out and upgrading to the AX-15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmack Posted March 25, 2009 Author Share Posted March 25, 2009 I'm currently rolling (grinding) with an ax 15 i suppose. howcome there is a clutch assembly listed for a 4.2l comanche? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 I'm currently rolling (grinding) with an ax 15 i suppose. What year is your truck? 87-mid 89 will have the Pukey BA 10/5, and mid 89-92 will have an AX-15. Provided it's the stock trans. howcome there is a clutch assembly listed for a 4.2l comanche? Because the parts stores/catalogs usually don't know what they're talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmack Posted March 25, 2009 Author Share Posted March 25, 2009 its an 89 :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Well then you could have either. On the left is the BA 10/5. Right is the AX-15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james750 Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Mine was made in 10/89 and it has an AX-15 if that helps, though it is a 90 model year so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmack Posted April 3, 2009 Author Share Posted April 3, 2009 mines a peugeot with the two peices bolted together. :fs1: so if this tranny dies. what other damage will it do to my truck? because i might as well just wait for that to happen and then find an ax 15 down the path.

Geonovast Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 mines a peugeot with the two peices bolted together. :fs1: Make it a paper weight and use the money slated for the tranny rebuild to find an AX-15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmack Posted April 3, 2009 Author Share Posted April 3, 2009 well. I'm going to see how much a new ax 15 is. :shake: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
