hey guys i have a 93 cherokee with the inline 6 and manual tranny. i have to change out the slave cylinder and i was wondering since i have to pull the tranny what would it take to put the AW4 auto tranny in it? would it be easy? what else would i need to do to make it work?

I'm not sure what you would have to do for the swap, but I just replaced the slave cylinder on my 93 and I wanted to tell you (in case this is your daily driver) that the coupling that connects the main line to the external tube of the slave cylinder might not want to reconnect properly. I was fortunate enough to find a compression fitting at work that worked fine, but NOBODY had the same coupling. Just a heads up.

Besides running tranny lines to a cooler and hoping there is are existing plugs in the wiring harness for it. Which mine dosint have. and you will have to move your cross member back. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong

Flex plate, shifter, tranny, cooler, speedo gear/sensor, at a minimum. I'm not sure if the aw4 is the same length as the manual or not so you might need new driveshafts too.

Just put a new slave and clutch in it IMHO. I wish I had a manual.

I found out the hard way when I got my long arm kit. it was for a Automatic and I had to cut the new cross member and redo it for my trans mount and apparently they didint have anything for a 5 spd. So....... my tranny is shorter. May have to swap the drive shafts to.
