I found a guy that has a ax5 for a 2.5, been told that the 3rd gear grinds a little. How hard would it be to overhaul it???

 

He has it for $50 OBO , only problem is it's in AZ so shipping is going to run about $85 to get it back to Ohio.

mudrunt has a 4x4 ax-15 out of a 4.0 and I have a 2x4 ax-4 hooked to the 2.5 in the MJ. Any way to fit the ax-15 to the 2.5 using my ax-4 bell and clutch???

not that I know of, however, I "believe" that you can use the bellhousing from an early 90's dakota, as they had the AX-15 as well.

The local JY has a couple bell housings from 88-93 2.5 Dakotas. Would that work to fit the ax-15 to my 2.5??

yep, or I heard, (mjeff87 posted this) that AdvanceAdapters has an adapter out to mate a ax-15 to a 2.5L

[mjeff87]

AA has a kit, if you're loaded....

 

You can cobble together the same thing with a Dakota bellhousing, a Camaro clutch and a CJ pilot bushing/bearing. There's a huge post over on Pirate that explains it all.

Thanks,

 

Been over to Pirate today looking at it. Found a bell housing at the local JY, just need to sale my 21 spline t-case so I can get a 23 spline one.
