AX15 swap into 91XJ
i origanlly put this on naxja and like it says im looking for all and any opinions so im also gonna post it here on CF.
basically looking to swap a 5 speed into my 91 jeep cherokee....below is the info and my questions
info:
91 xj with 23 spine origanlly had Aisin-Warner AW-4 4-speed auto with a 231 tcase
--
i bought a 1993 "donor" that had a rebuilt 1993 Aisin-Warner AX15 5-speed tranny. (still need to confirm havent climed under to check)
--
from what i have read the swap is hard mechanically but electrically is simple. Im gonna swap the blown auto out and put in my 5speed without its 242. instead just keep in the 231.
does the 231 just swap over to a 93 tranny just that easy? i read it should just bolt up if its a 23 spine???... and am I having to swap out the 91 TPS+CPS for the 93 TPS+CPS? and also what else should i grab from under the dash on this 93? im already working on the clutch setup....
i must admit im not the most mechanically inclined nor do i know what im doing.... thats why im trying to ask questions and do my research before i just jump in. i know im gonna have more questions once i really get into it, im hoping for any and all input atm. found a couple of write-up's on it but they dont answer all my questions. Thanks
