I've got an 86 Cherokee Chief, with the TBI 2.5L 4 cyl, 5-speed. From what I can find online (http://www.automobile-catalog.com/car/1986/1308965/jeep_cherokee_4wd_4-door_2_5l_5-speed.html) this is the AX5 transmission. I pulled the motor this weekend to get to the source of a clutch problem that had taken it out of comission some time ago. I discovered the clutch fork had fatigue cracked on both sides, and bent, leading to the slave cylinder shaft to fail to engage it. A call to the local dealer told me that this part is no longer manufactured, and not available. I'm not an XJ enthusiast (just someone that loves driving their jeep, trying to revive it for the second time), so I'm not familiar with where, if anywhere, I may be able to locate this part. Any ideas? The part looks like this (not my pic, but same motor/trans from an earlier post)
