Transmission swap


Recommended Posts

I'm planning a swap a 5 speed from a 4.0 liter to a 2.5 liter with a 4 speed. I know the bell housings will need to be swapped as well, which I believe is possible. The next issue is the input shaft compatibility.

Before I pull the trans, can someone confirm that this will work?

Sorry, but that can't be done. If you had an AX-15, you could use a Dakota bellhousing to mount it up to the 2.5L (at one point in time the Daks used both the AX-15 and 2.5L together), but the 4.0L trans in 88 was the Peugeot and no such adapter bellhousing exists. The 4.0L and 2.5L have different bolt patterns for their bellhousings.

Jeep on!
