gaucho919 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Hi gents, I'm currently looking for a transfer case for my '92 MJ. I have a couple junkyards around with XJ's from 87-99. What year T/C would work better? as far as speedo compatibility? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Sam Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 91-01 XJ, granted that you remove the electronic sender and install the mechanical sender. other years of ZJ should work as well, but I am less knowledgeable on those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaucho919 Posted April 10, 2011 Author Share Posted April 10, 2011 My sender from the 2wd ax-15 has an electrical plug on it, making it and electronic sender right? would the xj sender plug right in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe either 1996 or 1997 was the first year for the newer style of sender plug, so you would need a sender from an older XJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeepers Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 your 92 should have a 231 i m pretty sure. that should bolt behind you (envy)3550 lol . and the spedo sender should be easly removed via the 1 7/16 bolt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaucho919 Posted April 11, 2011 Author Share Posted April 11, 2011 I should've been more descriptive, my '92 was factory 2wd. I'm doing a ground up rebuild on it, using a '97 motor, '01 intake, and 04 nv3550. I got everything except for the tcase right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Sam Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Is the 04 NV3550 from a TJ or KJ? If its from a TJ it will be clocked differently, than the KJ or XJ units are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaucho919 Posted April 11, 2011 Author Share Posted April 11, 2011 It is from a TJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaucho919 Posted April 11, 2011 Author Share Posted April 11, 2011 Where is this clocking difference located? in the t-case or transmission? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Sam Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Where is this clocking difference located? in the t-case or transmission? Transmission, either you need to redrill the mounting holes to rotate the transfer case down some, or you will need to "modify" your floorboard with a hammer. I hammered the hell out of my floor to get it to clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaucho919 Posted April 12, 2011 Author Share Posted April 12, 2011 looks like I'm gonna need a big hammer then, Sir Sam- what transmission mount did you use? will the stock one work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Sam Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 looks like I'm gonna need a big hammer then, Sir Sam- what transmission mount did you use? will the stock one work? The mount is the same between the AX15 and the NV3550 XJ's, but there is a plate that bolts to the bottom of the transmission and that then bolts to the tranny mount, that is different than the ax15 plate, either make your own or consider buying that part new from Jeep. I did not use that part in my application because with my engine swap my tranny sits back ~4" from where it is supposed to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
