I have an AX-5 and an AX-15 tranny.
the 15 has some problems so that will mean repairs (apparently $$$)

My question is, can I use the AX-5 with a 6cyl engine without any problems? Or is it simply too small weight of a unit?

Input would be great.. thanks!

I believe they have different bolt patterns, so I don't think you can even bolt an ax-5 to a 6 cylinder. Someone correct me if I'm wrong

It'll work, I think. This page has a good breakdown of what trannies go with what engine. AX 5 is known for being week though. If you're wheeling or running big rubber you may want to rethink, or refinance ;0)

BTW, if you decide to unload the ax15, I'm toying with putting one (+ dana 300)in my cj. Lemme know k?

Didn't think this would work with the different shaft sizes between the 5 and the 15... If anyone's done it, would love to hear about it though!

Did some reading... looks like it cant be done because of the shaft sizes (righto newfie)

Looks like I gotta get this 15 working...

Hey, there ya go, I missed that. I really think (based on wayyy too many common opinions) that you're better off with the 15 guy. Still, it can't be "that" hard a swap as lots of people swap the 5 out in favour of a 15.
