ok i just got a 97 ax-5 with the external slave on it for my 4x4 swap on my 89 2x4 comanche with the internal slave. i got the whole tranny with the engine connected with it for 250 woot woot anyway. i should have to do anything but bolt the trANNY back in and hook my clutch line up to the external slave right? or do i have to get anything for i throw the tranny back in.

 

IIRC you need a bigger pilot bushing for the external slave AX-15 (gets pressed into your existing flywheel), and I believe the plumbing for the external slave needs to be routed a bit differently, but not too bad.

 

Is it this easy to swap an internal slave bellhousing to an external slave?

 

fairly

Nice! Thanks for the info!!

 

so since i am using a tranny thats external slave i dont need to do anything except get my clutch line in the right spot? im dumping my whole internal slave tranny for a whole new external one so i should not have to do anything but put here back in right?

 

so just to clarify - you're swapping in an ax-15 or ax-5?

 

Im not exactly sure what you are asking

But when bolting an external slave AX-15 trans back up to the block, all you have to do is:

line up the clutch
make sure the throwout bearing and fork is installed correctly

then install it.

that should be all.

 

this is what i thought and im am using ax-5s not that it matters but i well be putting my tranny in on sat i well let you guys know what happens
