MJ trans question.

Does an 89 Comanche with a 4.0L and 5 spd. have the Peugot BA 10/5 or the AX 15.

I would assume that is has the Peugot Trans. I'd crawl under and check the housing

It's easy to tell from above. Undo the boot around the shifter and see if the tower has 3 screws (BA 10/5) or 4 screws (AX trans) holding it to the trans.

Its easier than that guys.

The peugeot tranny splits lengthwise in 2 halves, like a hot dog bun and is bolted together that way. The split between each piece will be at the bottom. The AX-15 has pieces that come off on each end, its innards are accessed that way. Just crawl under and look, if it can't be opened down the middle, its AX-15, if it can split in 2 down the middle its ba10/5. No removal of anything required.

Edit: Heres a site with information about all engines/transmissions used in jeeps (w/ pics). http://www.jeeptech.com/

It could be either as Jeep started using the AX15 mid-year '89.

The AX15 has a 1" thick intermediate plate between the front and rear case halves. The Peugeot has a right and left case half.
