88mjmanche Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 i found a cherokee in the junk yard. its a 1984 chief 2 door with the 2.5 (carb) dana 30 front with a dana 44 rear i think 4.10s. for poops and jiggles i tried to put it in 5 gear it won't i belive it is a 4 speed. is a 4 speed good to put behind my jeep. mine is a 88 mj 4.0 6 cyl and a ba/10, 231 ext ext i want to get the tranny and axles but i don't know if the tranny will work.
Geonovast Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 The 4 cylinder transmissions (AX-4 and AX-5) will not bolt up behind a 4.0. Also, if that XJ is a 4 speed, the axles are most likely geared at 3.55. Chances are extremely remote that it's a D44 rear end.
88mjmanche Posted March 29, 2010 Author Posted March 29, 2010 there is another jeep cherokee next to it it also has a 4 cyl but it is a five speed witha dana 35 in te rear what are the odds of 4.10s in that its a 1989 4 door 2.5
Geonovast Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 2.5/5 speed has a pretty good chance of 4.10s. Can never say 100% for sure without checking the ratio yourself.
Pete M Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 axles can easily be swapped. You'll need to check everything personally to know for sure what ratio is there. :thumbsup:
88mjmanche Posted March 29, 2010 Author Posted March 29, 2010 sweet i will have to look at and see. anything else i sould be looking for in the junk yard? :dunno:
88mjmanche Posted March 29, 2010 Author Posted March 29, 2010 axles can easily be swapped. You'll need to check everything personally to know for sure what ratio is there. :thumbsup: i have 3.07s :fs1: anything is better then that :thumbsup:
Geonovast Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 If you're wanting a better transmission, look for an AX-15. If you grab those axles, see if you can't grab the speedo gear stuff out of the T-case.
88mjmanche Posted March 29, 2010 Author Posted March 29, 2010 i have a dana 44 in the rear i know i know but anyways i will probly take it out weld the dana 35 and stuff it under untill i get gears for the 44
Geonovast Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 Ah... just noticed the bigger tires in your sig. Factory speedo gear stuff won't do you any good.
88mjmanche Posted March 29, 2010 Author Posted March 29, 2010 yea got um on last week 100 bucks for the four practly brand new with a spare :banana: but yea how far off will the speedo be 10/20 mph :dunno: its off by about 5 right now
