Pete M Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 You can't build a Ba-10 any stronger. The case itself is weak. If you're looking for a lower first gear, I think the newer 3500 and 3550 may be what you're looking for. First gear for the AX-15 is 3.83 and I believe the 2550 had a 4.04 or something like that. The NSG 370 six-speed has a 4.46. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88swampedmj Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 that 6 speed looks tempting, i wonder what id need to do to get it to mate up to my I6.. would i need a different transfercase.. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87manche Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 the 6 speed is physically a larger box. You'd probably have to rework the tunnel sheetmetal and the trans crossmember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 are the expensive and hard to find????? The 6-speeds have only been around a couple years now, so yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnQ Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I've been tempted to gut my 2005 Rubicon and put the whole drive train on my MJ! :brows: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oizarod115 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 yep, they prolly just had their eggs mixed up... AX15 is definately the most efficient method of replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
