manual transmission choices for a 93YJ
Hey Folks
I have a 93YJ, 2.5" spring lift, 31" bfg AT's and have a couple of
questions.
the ax15 in it needs to be replaced or repaired. 3rd gear synchros dont
work, and I have to double clutch to shift. It's the OEM trans, and
would like to know should I replace, repair or upgrade.
I have heard good things about the chevy nvg4500 and it looks like all
I would need to do is to
get the bellhousing and trans mount adapters.
I do light fourwheeling, and camping. I plan on lower gearing, and
installing rear lockers, <love it on my truck>
I know if I stay stock, ax15 it should just bolt in, but if I spring
for the bigger trans, I can do more aggressive stuff, not extreme
wheeling, rock climbing or mud bogs.
please advise
Mike

Re: manual transmission choices for a 93YJ
The 4500 might be overkill unless you're planning on big power
upgrades. It's big, heavy, and expensive. But, it's also bullet
proof.
You'll probably need a 2 or 3 inch body lift before it'll fit between
the cross member and the body.

Re: manual transmission choices for a 93YJ
How many miles are on your Jeep? Unless you plan on going really big, a
rebuilt ax15 should be up to the task (as long as you maintain it).

Re: manual transmission choices for a 93YJ
Hi Mike,
Usually it done in conjunction with a stronger Dana 300, that could
be clocked to drive your front end:
