ok guys sorry this is my first post so if its in the wrong section or whatever i apologize, so ill try and keep this short, my buddy has a 93 wrangler 4.0 with the ax-15, he had a 231 that we put a sye into, he ended up puttin a d60 out back with a different t-case and said i can have his for basically free, my question, i have searched all over and idk what the output spline count on my aw4 is, i have a '96 xj with the aw4/242 t case combo, can someone point me in the right direction or tell me if the will work or am i loking at a h&t for a sye
thanks a bunch

witch is better 242 or 231

huntingman2706217

i dont have experiance with the 242 but theres thread about this... most say ones not better then the other... although theres probly more out there in the aftermarket world for the 231

242 if you want 4x4 on asphalt. Case is a little more solid than the 231 but the central differential is a little delicate and must be used properly.

It won't work.
The '96 xj aw4 is a 23 spline and the '93 yj ax15 is a 21 spline.

huntingman2706217

what? the BA-10 was the 21 spline i thought and the AX-15's ran the 23 spline? or is the YJ different then the XJ? that what ive always been told anyways... and read...

fantic238

it's a matter of years: even the aw4 has 21 splines before '06

huntingman2706217

hmm... guess i needs to restudy that... then why when people say to swap the BA-10 to a AX-15 they always say youll need another transfer case... you could use the same if u get the right ax-15? either way couldnt he get the 231 slip yoke out and just swap it into his current 231? or does the spline count on the rear side make a difference to the slip yoke?

Don't know about the peugeot gearbox, but yes, he can change the TC input shaft.
