The Isuzu 12 bolt comes in at least 3 widths. Early Amigo/Trooper were 58" - 59" WMS to WMS, 3" tubes with disk brakes with an ebrake lever on the calipers. '92 - '94 Trooper and some '95's use a ~ 61" wide axle w/ 3.5" tubes set up for coil springs. The rear disks changed a bit. They are...

I haven't checked lately, but a year or two ago, AW4's were dirt cheap on Ebay. I've bought two ('98 and '99) low mileage AW4's on ebay in the last few years. I paid $200 for each of them including the shipping charges FWIW. That's a big part of the reason I swapped to an AW4/D300 rather than...

Thanks. I have compression in 3rd & 4th only when in 'D'. I thought I had read that '3' will give you compression braking in 2nd gear, and '2/1' braking down to 1st. I'm thinking of switching to an Art Carr gated shifter. I about lost it on Double Whammy a couple weeks ago. I want to be...

I don't have a stock shifter. I used the Geartronic for manual shifting. The plan was to use the bump-shift portion of it for shifting, but the lack of compression braking is giving me second thoughts. Isuzu Amigo. --Dan

I've been running and AW4 for a little over a year now and need to update my shifting for offroad use. Right now, I'm using a Volvo S60 Geartronic shifter. Basically, I can only shift as far as 'D', then the lever slides over and you can bump it fore and aft to up/down shift. That part is not...

I found his writeup when I was working on my driveline swap and ended up doing the same thing. Only thing I would like to add to it is lowering the oil pickup a little bit as well, but haven't taken the time to figure it out. --Dan

The 3800 bell is the standard GM 60 deg V6 pattern, so yeah, same as 2.8, 3.1, 3.4. Not sure if there was a manual FWD or not, but the f-body used the series II 3800 as well so a flywheel will work from that. Note though, the L67 SC motor has a differently balanced flexplate, so the non-SC...

Just stumbled onto this old thread.... It's not an XJ, but I am putting a series II 3800SC into a RWD using an AW4/Klune/D300 combo. I've got a thread on it going on another board. Still have a lot to finish. It's definitely not a bolt-in, but that means most all will apply to an XJ as...

As Josh said, it modulates line pressure. Soft shifts at light throttle, firmer shifts with more throttle. If you leave it un-hooked, full-power shifts will still be soft and burn up clutches faster. I suppose though, that you could pin the cable at full draw (i.e., at WOT). I don't know...

No, it doesn't hit. Track bar locates it laterally, and there is room for twist when an arm is stuffed up to the bumpstop. --Dan

Mine are I-beams, bent to clear the frame and mount up inside the frame rail. Standard bushings in front and behind the axle, and a big RE bearing at the frame. Few pics: Flex is really pretty good, but nothing stellar. Much better than the previous IFS. I did make allowances to...

What D300 do you have? I think for most, the same sensor from a 231, 241, etc will fit the long output D300. I've been kinda looking for the same thing, but I need to retain the mechanical speedo drive. Jags That Run has a sensor that will work I think...

I'm using a '99 in mine. The connectors on this are different than the other's I've seen (pics only). The pins themselves may be the same though. I'm acutally using a different connector body. The pins pull out pretty easily with a small jewelers screwdriver. If the pins aren't the same...

No, it's definitely removable. I know I can get a bell for it with the GM 60 deg V6 pattern brand new from Isuzu, but they're about $350 I think. I still don't know for sure if the 2.5/AW4 bell exists. Don't want to chance buying one from a junkyard unseen either. --Dan

It does seem rare, but I have searched before for info on it and they do exist. At least, I've found just as many posts saying they do exist and/or have one as I've found that said the combo doesn't exist. I found a place on car-parts.com that says they have one, but they want something like...

For a 4.0/4.2. Came off a '99 AW4. $20 + shipping. Located in Mesa, AZ. Local pickup ok. --Dan

Looking for an AW4 bellhousing to mate to the 2.5. I believe this combo was only available in '87 - '90. If you've got one, let me know. Email or PM is fine. thanks --Dan dan @ houlster.com

I've always seen them both for the same price. These places have them for $1600 or less, either ratio. https://peakempire.com/store/default.php?cPath=51 http://www.mikegreen4x4.com/klune_v/index.htm I got a 4:1 Klune, lightly used for $1300 with the cable shifter and optional mounting foot. --Dan

I think it should work for you. The '99 has more speed sensors I think. 3 total. One in the bell housing reads the flexplate, a 2nd in the front of the tranny measuring input rpm and the 3rd at the output end. Wiring harness will be different, but the solenoids are still the same ~12 ohm...
