AX5 Syncos
Well.. My synchros are going.. I have problems shifting into 4th gear.. I
can shift into all the rest just fine.. I know I can double clutch and get into gear but that is getting old.. I am thinking of getting a new/good used Tranny.. Like an NV4500.. I was thinking if I get that tranny... I can then later upgrade to a 4.0L or whatever later.. From what I have seen at Advance Adapter, I can get adapters for almost any engine... I would rather get an NV4500 then invest in another AX5... What do you think? Good idea, bad idea, in different... Thanks, Ben 95 YJ 2.5L |
Re: AX5 Syncos
Hi Ben,
I think you should make the switch with a bigger engine at the same time. The big problem is no one thinks enough of the little four banger to make a clutch disk bigger than nine inches for it, and those disks don't make the centers big enough, nor the spline count for say an NV4500: http://www.----------.com/YJclutch.jpg I see someone thought enough to bolt a fifties Chevy Muncie with the granny to it: http://www.jeeptech.com/convtrans/sm420yj/ using a clutch disk from an '83 four.
