ba10 to ax15 drivshafts?

[Cabz]

When I get ready to swap out the ole pukegoat and 231 , will the old drivshafts work with the ax15 and 231?.

 

Or will I have to redo the 2 new shafts I allready have

[DirtyComanche]

They should. The trans are only about 1/2" different in length.

 

 

I think.

he's right only bout 1/2 inch difference

[Cabz]

Cool :D I had to shorten the rear 3/4 " when I swapped in the d44 and did the lift and the front sahft is just about done .

 

I would hate to have to the same thing twice.

Cbaz,

Did you get an AX15? I thought you were leaning toward the AW4?

I lean back and forth :D I want an aw4 I just don't want the wiring headaches. I have a few other thing to do before a trans / tcase swap .

 

just trying to get my ducks in a row :D

I have an aw4 from a 88 XJ if your interested... no removed yet so I could snag the wires for you... or heck take the whole drivetrain :)

thanks for the offer, But CT is a ways away from FL :D . I have access to about 5 aw4's and 231's Even a few 242's.

 

I am still pondering what to do with it, The ole pukegoat is still haning in for now

Yeah, I would like to have the AW4 too. I was thinking that you would do it and tell me how it went :D When you started this post, I was really considering doing it as well. So I went to NAXJA and did a bit of research. It changed my mind. I'm not trying to say it could not be done, just that it would be MUCH easier for me to do the AX15. And I can rebuild it myself :twisted:

It's been said that there's no point in rebuilding an AW-4. They seem to last forever and take any abuse, but if it does fail, they are still pretty cheap in the junkyards. As long as the junkyard one isn't already dead, it should just need new fluid.

Jeep on!

I tell ya I have never seen an auto trans take the abuses I have seen handed out to an aw4 and still live.

 

I am going over to a freinds yard some time this month and I am going to pull an entire harness , If for no other reason to se if I can make a standalone harnesss for the aw4.
