Yup, she has the six banger, tired as hell!!! It has 230k on it, I am lookin for a new motor to put in soon, hers is smog exempt so the sky's the limit Her dads 44 won't work for you wrong side drop, she has 5.38's in her diffs and it is fine on the freeway. As for yours I think you should hang on too it, maybe tilton can get a front waggy 44 from J&W for ya. And as far as springs I have some RE rear TJ springs you can have, get 4 heims and 4 bushings and link up the rear on the cheap, I will help labor wise where ever I can down at SNAFU to help keep the costs down. When Phil gets back from texas talk to him he is from chico and used to being flat broke and building a rig

An AX-15 is a direct bolt in auto tranny. Killer tranny's, never see them here at work come in for anything wrong. In 10 years with Jeep/Dodge I have replaced one PRNDL switch. They are bullet proof, just like any auto trans, gotta keep them cool, so add a aux. trans cooler. As far as rig size VS. family size. I had the same dilema few years back with a Samurai. Unloaded the Samurai and built a 4 runner. Then found out that the family didnt want to go anyways so sold it and got a Toyota truck. Hind sight? would have kept the Samurai and built the bitch

Posted By Donkey on 6th Sep 08 at 2:55pm An AX-15 is a direct bolt in auto tranny. Killer tranny's, never see them here at work come in for anything wrong. In 10 years with Jeep/Dodge I have replaced one PRNDL switch. They are bullet proof, just like any auto trans, gotta keep them cool, so add a aux. trans cooler...... The AX-15 is NOT an auto trans! It is the stock 5spd behind the 4.0L straight 6. Posted By Keith on 5th Sep 08 at 2:02pm I dont know, but does a ax-15 bolt up to that 4 banger? YES IT WILL!!!!!!....kinda. you will need to find a bellhousing from 96-00 Dodge Dakota with the 2.5L. With that bell it WILL bolt directly to the ax-15 :thumbsup: You also have the option of using a toyota 5spd and toyota cases also. There are some mix and match parts needed but its all junkyard parts
