T4 in an 86 CJ7
I have a four speed manual in my recently acquired '86 CJ7 (258). Saw
a thread from a while back (Mike Romain) suggesting that the four speed was not a stock option in 1986. According to this resource it was: http://www.off-road.com/jeep/swb/articles/specgrid.htm Anyone know for a fact whether it is even possible that I have a stock tranny or not? Dean |

Hi Dean,
If you have the 2.5 liter four cylinder, but the six (258 CID) would have had a beefier input shaft of the Borg Warner T-5: http://www.coximport.com/daikin/jeep.html God Bless America, Bill O|||||||O mailto:-------------------- http://www.----------.com/ Deano wrote: > > I have a four speed manual in my recently acquired '86 CJ7 (258).

I had a factory Tremec T-176 4sp in my '86 CJ7 Laredo. I knew the Jeep since it had 11k miles on it back in '88 and subsequently bought it from the owner at 24k miles. Are you sure that's not what's in yours?

Re: T4 in an 86 CJ7
Thanks for the responses.
In fact, all I really know is that it is a 4 speed and I didn't really suspect it had been replaced (nothing else has obviously been modified on the vehicle). Given this, it most likely is the T176. I should have read the link I included a little more carefully as the T4 was only listed for the 4 banger ;) In follow-up, is this a good solid transmission? I have no complaints, but again it is a new rig for me and my first jeep. Any quirks/issues I should know about?
