4.0? If so it probably had an AW4 - so not the same as a YJ. Dunno about the other two.

Yeah. . .AW4 was in 4.0 Cherokees

Not in Grands or Wranglers of any kind.

I learned something there. . .I had no idea that you could get an AW4 or an AX15 in a ZJ.

You can get them with a V8 and a 231 too. We had one come through the auction I used to work at. I rodded the dog snot out of that pile before I detailed it. Coulda used some new tires by the time I had it back out in the bull pen. :lol:

94 XJ will have a 23 spline output.

23 spline AW4's are only found in 1990 and up XJ's. Not sure about other rigs. Just make sure the new AW4 is 23 spline.

1997 and up XJ's are wired a bit differently, but they may work if you swap nothing but the tranny itself. Not positive about that one.

Any tranny out of a 90-96 rig will be a direct replacement.
