pingpong Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 Nice concept, but I thought the point of running an auto was so you didnt have to shift :? The only thing I would change on my auto is the ability to go from low to reverse for those near endo situation. I got a ? while we are on the subject of aw4's, has anyone converted a column shifted one to a floor shifter using an aftermarket shifter?

BrettM Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Nice concept, but I thought the point of running an auto was so you didnt have to shift :? what, you can't chew gum and walk at the same time? :wink: :P I always get annoyed by how auto trannies shift, never at the right time or hunting between gears. However they are great for rock-crawling, so I made the best of both worlds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pingpong Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Brett, No I am not a very good multi tasker so chewing gum and walking at the same time is not an option :wink: NO if you can find a way to do that joystick thing with reverse and the 1-2 shift I would definately be intersted in that :D Most of the time my wheel speed rarely gets fast enough for it to make that shift, and when it does, it is cause I am flogging it, and need the wheel speed. BTW seen a small pic of your rig in one of those Mags.. good job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabz Posted March 22, 2006 Author Share Posted March 22, 2006 Brett ...... Can I get a discount for advertiseing? :D I am thinking about the swap for a few reasons 1. ax15's are difficult to find 2. bad knees and clutches don't play well together 3. the AW4 is probably the most bullet proof auto trans I have ever seen. I have seen them beat to snot , overheated and spanked for days on end and never complain. Brett if you could make a shifter or device that would allow full auto for a swap in setup you would probably make a ton of $ especialy if you don't have to rewire the whole jeep to do so. I know several people that would love to run the AW4 in YJ's & TJ's and just think of rebuilding an old CJ with a newer 4.0 and AW4 :shock: :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
