So I have this Saturday off and next Saturday. The next whole week I have to drive the jeep 200 plus miles for a work trip. I will have all my parts by this Friday to do my ax15 swap I have a tranny from a 90 cherokee with small input shaft a 231 from a 95 auto that I have done the sye in already clutch kit with slave and a new fly wheel. Do any of y'all for seee having an issue completing this in a 8 hour period with the correct tools and a fully stocked shop to do the work in ? Or should I wait untill next Saturday when I don't have to rely on the jeep ?

Maybe just me but I've had "Murphey" visit too many times in those situations. I'd wait unless you have a back up vehicle.

I do have a daily driver but the motor mounts have gone out on it and makes it a ***** to drive comfortably for that distance and the mounts won't be here till next week while I'm gone. I'm not sure about Murphy on this one the transfer case went painless. But this morning the jeep wouldn't do anything but crank and crank I think it's time for a new sensor also
