AX15 transmission
I was wondering if we have a transmission god about? I have a problem
with my 93' 2.5L standard with a problem shifting between gears. I was told that this was "the syncronizers". Since there are hubs, rings, sleeves, keys and even springs, what are the common faults? Quadratec seems to be a vendor with parts at a reasonable price. An additional piece of information that would be helpful in a rebuild is tolerance information where I can put a caliper to a parts check. Being an electrical engineer, this is not total beyond my domain (in theory). An old problem that also bugs most YJ owners is water leaks. A short list is "lookies" (as compared to wookies) would not go stray. I am new to this group so, I do not know if there is a FAQ about? I might be able to help out those with electrical problems on these beasts, where I have a Chilton's... although I wonder if this could be opening Pandora's box? Any emails would be appreciated.

Re: AX15 transmission
Your 2.5L indicates your transmission is an AX-5. The AX-15 is only
used with the 4.0L six-cylinder engine. Synchronizers are the most likely problem with your transmission, they go out far more frequently with wear than just about anything else in a trannie. I'd be looking at just them, with maybe a question of how much more for a complete overhaul if you plan to keep your '93.

Hi Fabe,
Many times people complain about the syncros when it's actually that weird frog throw out, slave cylinder: http://www.----------.com/YJslave.jpg Maybe bleed it, refill it to make sure it is fully releasing.

Re: AX15 transmission
Both Chilton and the Quadratec catalog seem to indicate a AX-15 with
the AX-5 being models earlier to 91. Bill had some good comments. However, I had the master cylinder and slave replaced sometime back. Drat... that was the internal version too! Actually, over pumping the clutch to compensate for a slave cylinder on its last legs cost me that master cylinder, so I was told. The problem is consistent with 2-3 shifts. It is a seriously blocked shift. Rev'ing between gears does not help. I also have a transmission whine and grind that I will partially right off to a disintegrating transmission mount. Geez... a professional rebuild may cost me a fortune. With the price of vehicules these days, I might need to get burying in 'ye old YJ. Thanks! Fabe |
