bigborebates Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Quick question, back to my projects and started hitting the JYs, found an 95 TJ with an AX-15 tranny, tranfer case gone with a 21 spline output shaft, external slave, is this the tranny i want for my comanche? its a 1988 with the puegot which has second gear clicking like crazy, i know i read somewhere that the 231 TC in the 88 won't work unless spline count is the same but i don't know yet, any help would be appreciated. I also had an awesome find which i have been searching for for quite some time,I heard that they were rare but I found an 87 comanche with the MT pkg and rear D44 so of course i will snag that for 200 bucks pulled and placed in my truck. Should i get the springs or anything else, Transfer case, ETC this is also for the 88 that the AX-15 is for, and i am also searching for a front axle for this truck what i have read is the 30 is weak unless shafts and joints are replaced, so what should i look for and what vehicle should i get it from, i found several with disc brakes and was going to put in the 8.8 rear but the 44 is a good find from what people here are saying, but i am stuck on which front axle. I will be running 35x12.50 and hit moab regularly. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 What engine was in that TJ? 21 splined output would indicate that the trans was an AX-5 and the engine the 2.5L. meaning that the trans won't work for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigborebates Posted April 9, 2010 Author Share Posted April 9, 2010 i am pretty sure the motor was a 4.0, i will have the check it out tomorrow, but i am sure the output shaft on the tranny was 21 spline, what is the count on the ax-15, you got a recommendation on front axle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 23 spline 35s are a lot of tire. But if you leave the front diff open and upgrade the shafts (and don't get stupid with the "fun pedal"), a Dana 30 can work. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
