Xj Ax15?

[mpace6a]

Would the transmission in a '94 XJ, 4x4, be an ax15? I'm looking for one for a 318 swap in the mj, and wasnt sure if it would be the ba10 or not.

If it's a 5 speed manual behind the 4.0L then it would be an AX15. They stopped using the BA10/5 in early '89.

Yes, that will have the AX-15... it will also be the good bellhousing with the external clutch slave cylinder instead of the integrated throwout bearing/slave cylinder inside the bellhousing. Grab it.

 

PS Garvin I know you probably didn't mean "it" in terms of all XJ's, but specificially this one the OP talked about... but just so anyone who might be looking at this topic in the future isn't confused... the DID put the Peugeot BA10 behind 4.0L rigs, in 87, 88 and possibly early 89. Late 89 they switched to the AX-15.

I was referring to the one the OP was talking about in my first sentence. The main reason I added the 4.0L part is because the OP didn't mention what engine the XJ had. '94 was also the swap to the external slave cylinder so early '94's had the internal as they were clearing out the warehouses.

I have a '94 XJ with a 2.5 has a AX5 tranny. I thought they quit using The AX 5 when they came out with the AX15, although I'm thinking maybe they only used the AX5 behind the 4 cylinder.

The AX4 and AX5 transmissions only came behind the 4 cylinder. The BA10/5 and later the AX15 came behind the 6 cylinder.

 

AX15 can be made to fit a 4 cylinder engine by using the bellhousing from a 4 cylinder/AX15 Dodge Dakota.
