88pioneer Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Just found this on CL. 96 ax-15, reverse is shot apparently. 75 bones takes it. Is it a good deal? Seems to be worth it to me. http://newjersey.craigslist.org/pts/1956409808.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 That external bellhousing/bearing retainer/fork alone could be worth $50... also, that looks like it may have the T-case still on it. Unless he's selling just the gearbox, it's definitely worth it, if he's only letting the box go, it could still be worth it depending on why reverse won't work.

64 Cheyenne Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Yeah why wouldn't reverse work. Nearest I've heard is it could be caused by a bent fork caused by "jamming" into reverse. My friend has an AX, same problem, no reverse. Hopefully in the next week or so were going to put it on the bench see if we can take it apart and fix it. We got the tools, manual and a shop. We shall see. As stated the bell housing and front retainer is worth the $75, heck the parts to make an external conversion would cost more than that. If you don't want to fix the tranny, offer $50, make $50. Win Win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Reverse doesn't have a regular fork like the other gears, so as long as there's nothing wrong with the 1/2 shift collar, which is also the output shaft's reverse gear, it would be rather easy to fix as you wouldn't need to use a press for anything.

88pioneer Posted September 19, 2010 Author Share Posted September 19, 2010 I think i might buy it. Probably won't do much with it for now. Will probably end up using it in my 4x4 conversion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
