Hey guys I just picked up a 86 xj w/ 2.5 4 banger, t4 4speed manual, and np 207 transfer case for $75 The engine runs excellent but after beating on the thing for awhile the tranny is on its way out and the np207 grinds alot (chains probably skipping teeth) and doesn't go into 4 lo anymore. Basically i want to upgrade and not rebuild the pos 86 driveline while retaining the 2.5. I tried to search for this stuff but didn't find much info for 2.5's
anyway my question is will an ax15 and np231 out of a 4.0 cherokee work ( i am not sure if this tranny for the 2.5 is the same as the 4.0 one) I also don't care about the vacuum actuator swith on the t-case because it already has 4x4 posilock cable actuator. if they are the same would there be any reason not to run the 23 spline versions of the tranny and t-case
thanks,
chuck
