Well, at this stage of its build-up, trading it off is out of the question,
plus after 12 years of ownership and thousands of off-road miles me & this
YJ are basically inseparable. Still, it would be great to only have to use
two feet on the rocks, instead of three. :-)
Anyway, it being a '94, it would have come from the factory with a 32RH,
which is only electronic for lock-up. The 32RH has the same output spline
count as the AX15 so my Atlas II should bolt up. The throttle linkage has
all the attachment points for the kickdown cable, etc. Looks like we just
need a donor vehicle for the trans and all the little bits. Since it's all
factory, and mostly bolt on, it sounds doable, if not cheap. FWIW, Novak and
Advance have adapter kits for the GM 700r, which might even be easier.

Simple summary, getting tired of shifting on the trail, want an automatic!
(Hey, maybe this is the ewxcuse I was looking for for the GM crate engine &
trans, eh?)

Thanks, I chose to ignore his tone. Unfortunately, we often find this kind
of response to questions on this Forum. (I've got $35k+ in mods & equipment
on this YJ: SURE, I'll just trade it off for an automatic! ;-)

It's true thought, the poster will probably save thousands, selling
his and buying something equipped the way he wants it.
