I've been doing a lot of thinking lately on making my cherokee a 6 speed instead of 5, does anybody know if it'll work or if it'll bolt up? I think that it would be pretty sweet idea

 

it will bolt up to your engine and tcase if you get it from a wrangler. you'll have to do a lot of google searching to find out if it's really worth the $800 or so to source a used one. like most of these threads will say, I'd 10x rather have an NV3550

yeahh that's truee, but isn't the NV3550 a five speed!? and I was thinking that if I were to get a NSG-370 I would go to a junkyard and try to find a wrecked TJ with that trans and pull it out

 

not worth it to me. if you can ever find a TJ that isn't already completely picked clean go for it I guess. you're still gonna pay big buck$ for something that isn't all that special

 

You will have a lil lower first gear. 2nd-6 is about the same as the ax15. And there is some serious design flaws. Not worth it in my opinion. If you want the low-range, start working on the TCase. Check out Atlas, Novak, advanced adapters.
