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.

Re: AX15 transmission
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!
