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

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:

'83 four.
