Well my 5 speed is screwed, it whines like a ***** and gets hot,very hot, wont go into 3rd or 4th about 30% of the time. i asked how much for a rebuild they guy told me that it would be cheaper to swap in the ax15 for $1500 due to me haveing the ****y ba10. well i cant afford that and my parents say sell it and get a reliable car. There is no way in hell i can get near enough from my jeep for that. How hard is it to do the switch myself if found a ax15 with an internal slave?

 

people have told me that it could be dun with 2 people in about 2 days with a jack. i herd that compared to most cars its not that hard.

sorry i cant be more help. good luck

 

if your good with cars it would take only a day if you have everything you need to swap it.. maybe time for a new clutch too while your down there

 

Its really not that hard with a couple of guys and a jack and a decent selection of tools. Should only take a day. 2 max. There are 2 bell housing bolts that are external torx so make sure you have a selection of those sockets. And like parkerbabco said, if you're already in there, replace the clutch (probably already have to due to different trannys) and maybe the slave. It would suck to have to pull it all apart again if the slave goes a couple weeks after the swap.

 

im looking for a AX15 myself BEFORE mine goes bad and ive found a couple on craigslist for around $200-250, new clutch probably 100-200,

why are you wanting an internal slave?

 

what state are you in

 

Well i heard that the internal slave was an easier swap?? And im in washington

 

o hey, my stepdads winery is in pasa robles, its Arciero (also NOS) winery

 

well have him kick down some of the long dollars he is making
and get a new tranny

 

lol yea right hes a jerk, i broke his nose and got kicked out of the house and now i live with my dad in washington

 

did you go to paso high

 

Maybe someone who lives in washington might be up for helping you with the swap. I'd help but you live way to far away..

 

*from what I've read* the internal slave is an easier swap but if you ever need to work on/replace your slave cylinder the external is easier to get to.

Where at in washington are you? I'm in hermiston

 

where in washington are you? i am in tri citys and have had my tranny in and out (by myself) in about 4 hours, getting it out isnt a problem, its getting it in and lining up the teeth thats a pain... i dont think it helps, but i have a 5spd out of an 85 that i would give you for 100 bucks worked great till the motor snapped the crankshaft. let me know if you are semi close and id be willing to come help you out

 

is it the BA10 or the AX5

this could work out great for xjchris
