Complete trans rebuild kit
 
Tranny went belly up so I'm searching for the most complete rebuild kit
available on the market.
Any suggestions ?

I have gotten several rebuild kits through TCI no complaints.

Thankyou but I can't seem to find any jeep related parts on their website.
Is it something that needs to be ''special ordered'' ?

Here's one:

Another:

But I dont know if it has the same inventory as the one on eBay.

RockAuto also has two kits on their site for around $330 or so but there is a question if the AW4 uses the same valve body gasket as the A340
You can get a 5% discount with code 2515823922272710

Have you rebuilt transmissions before? After rebuilding some 700R4's and 4L60E's I can tell you that it takes time and specific tools. It may be more feasible to grab an AW4 from a JY for less than the rebuild kit price + time involved.

If you decide to do the undertaking, there is a video series on youtube that shows the takedown of the AW4, it is listed under Toyota A340 and there are 7 videos:

I also looked into rebuilding. I replaced the AW4 instead, which was cheaper and easier.
A good donor would be a 'part out' by another jeeper. Or one with a good warranty if from a salvage yard.

Thanks alot, I saw the 2 on rock auto but they seam to miss a seal that another kit on morris 4x4 sells (not a real bother though)

I have never rebuild anything car related and I'm not planing on doing this
myself either.
I do have a couple of friends who are experienced mechanics and who all
love Jeeps.
I was thinking of bringing to XJ to one of them and helping them out with rebuilding it.
