onlyinajeep726 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Went to the junkyard today with my sights on getting a Durango steering box and brake master cylinder for my XJ. There were a ton of Durangos and Dakotas out there. When I'm there, I always check the Dakotas for the infamous AMC 2.5L and 5-speed. Sure enough, the last one I checked, a '98, had the engine removed but the 5-speed was still there and still intact. I jumped into the engine bay and snatched her up. Can't believe I found one after all this time of searching... With that said, I have no use for it at the moment since I did the 4.0 swap... If I could've found this last year, I would have been more tempted to stick with a 2.5 and done the AX15 upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onlyinajeep726 Posted April 1, 2014 Author Share Posted April 1, 2014 It mates the AMC/Jeep 2.5L to an AX15 5-speed, the AX15 being an upgrade to the stock AX4 or AX5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onlyinajeep726 Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 Write ups for what? Swapping an AX4/5 to the AX15? I don't know any off hand, but I'm sure it can be found via Google or something. Did you pick up that Waggy front clip at the same time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
