99 TJ AX-15 in a 92 XJ

Hello All,

I was wondering if anyone can tell me if a 99 TJ AX-15 will work in a 92 XJ without any modifications. I got a really good deal on a rebuilt tranny from Collins Brothers Jeep for $500, but it is an AX-15 for a 99 TJ. I'm hoping all I have to do is slap on my old Bell Housing & Transfer Case and slap the sucker in. Help!

The tranny that I bought is only the core with no bell housing and Adapter housing/transfer case. My XJ is a 2WD. So it is basically a swap. But my question is. Do the 92 AX-15 and the 99 TJ AX-15 have the same pilot diameters?

sorry, it is a 4.0 5 speed manual. I just found out that the new tranny is a YJ AX-15 tranny. I measured the Pilot Diameter on the YJ tranny at 6/8. does anybody know what size the shaft is on the 92 XJ AX-15?
