I got an 89 cherokee lerado. Problem is im told i cant put a long arm lift on it because i have the 5 speed pendulam tranny. Is there any way to put a long arm lift on it without swaping trannys?

I ran into this bs myself.. I ended up fabbing the new cross member so the tranny would bolt up.
Then that crappy tranny grenaded and I up graded to the AX15 and had to refab it to fit that.
He has the puegot ba10. I'd just get a better tranny IMHO

I know it was a PITA when I found out what I had to do 
Up to you man..
But I'm glad I upgraded. No more weak tranny with the crappy internal slave design.
If you do..
Parts list:
AX15
tranny mount plate
4wd linkage
Newer clutch
T-case to go with tranny
Slave kit from dodge.
Had to measure and match up a brass pilot bearing and drill the bore larger on the rod that connects to the pedal.
Man I'm glad thats all over.. lol

if you do go ax15, try to get the post-95 bell housing....because like said above, the internal slave sucks. ive replaced mine twice in a year. and it would have been so much quicker to replace if i didnt have to remove the transmission to do it...lol
