I race my XJ. It's a 91 model. I have 4:11 gears. What's the best tranny and t- case that I can get for my jeep? One that'll be good for what I am doing.

What engine, tires, do you know how to drive a stick?

The AW4 automatic was installed in Toyota Supras. It's very stout and will take a lot of abuse.

Not really looking to change over to a stick. Tires are 15" turkey treads. Not sure what size at this moment ill have to check. Lol. 4.0 engine.

If you have an automatic you have an AW4. Does your t case shifter say 2hi 4 hi N 4 low? That's a 231 which is what I'm pretty sure you have. Your drivetrain is fine, there isn't some magic upgrade to do. Just add a transmission cooler an go.

+1. The only thing I have to add is that since you're racing it, you might wanna consider synthetic fluids, to better stand up to heat.
