If you're crawling, why go to a manual trans? Just get a converter modded and you're good.

(03-25-2015, 06:53 AM)DanielK There's almost always a lower gear. Rev it out. lol.

I really want to get one of those 617/jeep trans adapters and put the trans/transfer case and axles from a jeep under a W123 wagon. Ultimate SUV.

Forced to climb most hills in 2nd because you can rev 1st!

That would be legit! I considered doing that!

Modded in what way? I already have the high stall (2600rpm) out of an '85 and its perfect for street driving, I can make full boost whenever and where ever I want, but in the dirt under a high load situation, RPM stays up at stall speed but the converter isn't spinning the tires fast enough. I usually hit hills in 2nd gear as 1st cannot be revved past 4000 without automatic change. So that's dumb and the fact that my trans couldn't hold the power make its that much more worthless.

Monitor my wheel speed in this video and see how rpm never changes...

Thanks man! I will be using all jeep parts including flywheel and clutch components. Pretty cool there is a lot to choose from. I'm just going with new stock stuff since the jeep I6 makes 190hp and 224tq so it should hold the 617 power no problem I think. But hey who knows we'll see!

Just down to small parts now! Need:

Clutch master and reservoir
Jeep 4.0 Flywheel
Jeep 4.0 clutch assembly with slave and all
Jeep 4.0 starter

But I can get the swap started without that stuff. The engine oil pan has to be clearances for the Jeep starter and I will need to see how the Ax15 fits in the trans tunnel. Make a hole in the tunnel for the shifter. Start to fab trans cross member. Also modify driveshaft with 1310 yolks. Install peddles. Make clutch hydraulic line. Make shifter relocation.

---P.S.... Haha no those are Brembo Monoblock radial mount race calipers for Jeremy McGraths short course truck. They're about $2000 a piece, lol and I have them stacked like they're nothing ha

Going the one piece driveshaft route? Or just shortening the front shaft and leaving the center bearing?  With my T5 swap, the front shaft would have been about 8" long.

Yes more than likely I'll one piece the driveshaft and also put a 1310 Yolk on the diff. I got a 2wd Cherokee XJ driveshaft at the yard for $40 so going to start there. We're racing in Phoenix this weekend so I should be able to start the swap next weekend.

If you're going 1 piece, you need a sliding YOKE on the output shaft, lubed with egg YOLK. As I understand, a sliding yoke in the middle of the shaft, not the output shaft, will affect radial stability on a shaft long enough for the typical sedan. They're fine on jeeps and other 4x4's that take stubby drive shafts but not for us. A sliding yoke mounted in the shaft needs a larger diameter the longer the shaft gets. There's not enough room in the tunnel for the shifter and a 3" diameter shaft. Does that make any sense?

(04-22-2015, 07:27 PM)raysorenson If you're going 1 piece, you need a sliding YOKE on the output shaft, lubed with egg YOLK. As I understand, a sliding yoke in the middle of the shaft, not the output shaft, will affect radial stability on a shaft long enough for the typical sedan. They're fine on jeeps and other 4x4's that take stubby drive shafts but not for us. A sliding yoke mounted in the shaft needs a larger diameter the longer the shaft gets. There's not enough room in the tunnel for the shifter and a 3" diameter shaft. Does that make any sense?

The point was you need a splined output on the trans for a slip yoke on a 1 piece shaft that long.

As for the spelling, I'd prefer an asshole on the web correct me than I go around saying "yolk this" and "yolk that" at work in front of a bunch of colleagues who know better but won't correct me to my face. If you think I did you a bad turn, apologies.

So anyway I beat the dents out of my lower oil pan and replaced the oil pump pickup with a new one from the dealer because it was cracked.

[Image: rsz_img_20150503_134115031_hdr.jpg]

Then I decided to see if the trans would behave and it did! So fuck it I started driving it again until I had time for the trans swap.

[Image: rsz_1rsz_img_20150508_165337193_hdr.jpg]

Until the other day I was 10 miles from home and it started running really weird. i popped the hood and some injector return lines were leaking I also checked the oil level and it was full... well as I started driving it was getting worse ...

Now it occurs to me that its running like its low on oil pressure. so long story short by the time I baby it home it acts like it is seizing. Well fuck me right? I triple check and there is plenty of oil in the pan but something must have happened (maybe with the new pickup)??? I don't know I'm so confused. I come out today, replaced the return line and start the bitch up and it acts like normal. I have no oil pressure gauge so I popped the fill cap and look at the cam. THERE IS oil squirting on it like normal but that may mean nothing who knows? I let it warm up a few min and bring up the idle (everything seemed fine at this point) and bam.... There's the rod knock. So guess I'm looking for a donor engine or will rebuild this fucker!

This time around I for sure want something that I know or can verify history of... This will be the third engine for this car and while this engine was extremely clean the milage was somewhat unknown and I had ran it out of oil once before which I knew made it a ticking time bomb for some thing like this to happen. Honestly I'm surprised it lasted this long, I probably put this thing through more hell than most people out there or even on this forum!

That is why I am leaning towards rebuilding it if the parts are still OK (crank, rods, pistons, can, block) the other stuff like valves and sleeves are cheap and I'd rather have something fresh!

I'm thinking sleeves, regrind on the crank and a rod, bearings, rimgs, valves and porting I would be done for under $1k and have a fresh motor that I don't have to worry about "what were the previous 2xx,xxx miles like?"

$1K isn't too bad. If you could get it back together for close to that, rebuild sounds like the way to go. 



All the same, I'd suggest you do some browsing to see what it would run you to make the jump to the OM606. You could sell off your prechambers, your IP (it has 10mm elements, right?), exhaust, etc... The intercooler and trans can be made to for without much trouble, I'd think.

Well, maybe all you need is a new set of smal end bearings... Smile Looks like you've not driven much with the damaged bearings. Could be a cheap fix, if the cylinder bores & crank journals are still within specification. Hone, re-ring, new bearings and on you go! Doesn't always have to be a "full" rebuild (it's nice, no doubt about that!).

(05-18-2015, 10:16 AM)turbojeep $1K isn't too bad. If you could get it back together for close to that, rebuild sounds like the way to go. 



All the same, I'd suggest you do some browsing to see what it would run you to make the jump to the OM606. You could sell off your prechambers, your IP (it has 10mm elements, right?), exhaust, etc... The intercooler and trans can be made to for without much trouble, I'd think. 

(05-18-2015, 11:42 AM)DiseaselWeasel Well, maybe all you need is a new set of smal end bearings... Smile Looks like you've not driven much with the damaged bearings. Could be a cheap fix, if the cylinder bores & crank journals are still within specification. Hone, re-ring, new bearings and on you go! Doesn't always have to be a "full" rebuild (it's nice, no doubt about that!).

points gentlemen! I will know in a few days time what direction I'll be headed!

You don't know much until you have it apart.

Pop your oil pump off and give it a good look. You might've gotten a shit pump that is temperamental.

Even if that's the case I'm past the point of saving the engine without pulling it

Well fuck, that sucks man.  Heres to ya getting something back in it and rolling soon :beers:

During my rebuild I bought two extra shortblocks and have a few decent internal parts left over.  If you rebuild what you got and need some of those unobtanium hard parts, hit me up, you can have them.
