will a 1995 grand cherokee limited tranny work on my 1994 or do i have to get a 1994?

 

Where are you located, and whats wrong with the tranny. Those things are cake to rebuild.

 

If it's an AW4 then (IIRC) you could only get it outta a 93. I don't even think they have the AX15 either though. But I've been wrong before lol.
Personally I would look into getting one out of an XJ provided we are talking about an XJ lol.

 

'94 what?

P.S. The AX15 was an option on the GC but they were very rare. Only available from 93-94 and only 2,000 built.

 

its a 1994 jeep grand cherokee limited and the tranny just started slipping,i looked at rebuild kit and your rite it doesent look to be that hard ive never done a transmission but i have rebuilt a transfer case on a carpet cleaning van
Im located in Fair Oaks Ca. near Sacramento

 

its a 1994 jeep grand cherokee limited 5.2 motor my transmission is a 42RE

 

A slipping transmission is probably one of the easiest problems to fix.

Which gears are slipping. And is it actually slipping, or is it kind of going into nuetral?

 

its slipping from 2nd to 3rd.......thx for responding

 

Could be the 2/3 accumulator and or spring.

Direct clutch seals, clutch plates.

IF its just the accumulator you can do it without removing the tranny.


IF its slipping between 2-3( or going into third) Then it very well could be the accumulator.

Its cheap, just get a new piston and spring. Drop the pan and the valve body. And you can access it.

IF its slipping while in the gears 2 and 3 then most likely its internal.

 

it dont slip once im in gear only when i take off from a stop,is it hard to rebuild my tranny

 

how hard is it to rebuild tranny myself, ive rebuilt a transfercase before

 

i appreciate you helping with your answers its nice that someone knows what their talking about

 

Transmissions are a little time consuming. You got to keep everything clean and be able to use feeler gauges to check tolerances.

 

Its cheap to rebuild it yourself. But if you don't get it together right, its a lot of word to do over.

I am not a master by any means. I have rebuilt about a dozen or so.

If its slipping when you start out also it most likely will need taken apart and rebuilt.

If you can get a good used one for cheap, it may be easier to just buy one.

If you have time and not much funds, you might attempt doing it yourself.

 

They are really not hard to do. But its critical like I said to get it together right.

IF you do it yourself, first thing is buy a manual for that transmission.

Have an area set aside specifically for the work. There are a LOT of parts in that small tranny.

Don't take anything apart until you read the manual.

You will need a complete gasket and seal kit for certain.

After dissasembly you will know exactly what you will need.

Its not rocket science by any means. But the first one will take you a while.
