Gojira94 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Part # 27 - 52003939: I think this is used for manual trans applications but I'm not 100% sure. If so, how thick is it? I made one from 1/4" HDPE just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 #27 in the image? the one that goes with the automatic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89 MJ Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I don't think that is for manual transmissions. When I pulled my AX-15 out of a 97 XJ, it didn't have that. My MJ has been probably 10,000 miles without one with no issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the diagram seems to indicate it's for auto, but I filtered the lookup for ERH/DDQ/4WD and it shows in the list of applicable parts. That's why I'm asking, if anyone has a late 89-92 4.0/AX-15 or ever seen a rig that came with this spacer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My MJ has been probably 10,000 miles without one with no issue. Thanks for confirming. The crossmember I snagged was from a 96 XJ and I didn't see one on that either. But you never know with older vehicles, people change out mounts and sometimes forget to put everything back. FWIW, if you have an AW4 and it's missing, 1/4" HDPE makes a pretty decent substitute if you don't have 1/4" mild steel plate handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you never know with older vehicles, people change out mounts and sometimes forget to put everything back. You bet. The XJ was a 313k mile trail rig, so I can't guarantee that it hadn't been messed with either, but I would doubt that it was being that 2nd gear was out of it and it had stock gearing. I don't think it was messed with at all, just was abused. Now that I think about it more, my 90 MJ (that I forgot I owned at one point in my earlier post) had an AX-15 and definitely did not have the cushion. Granted again, it was a 238k mile truck, but seemed all stock to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gojira94 Posted January 23 Author Share Posted January 23 This truck is a jigsaw puzzle with no box/ picture. And half the pieces were missing when I got it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fiatslug87 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 My ‘90 does not have it and I’m the original owner, clutch replacement was done by me and I highly doubt I didn’t reinstall it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
