I have a 96 xj auto and a 88 5spd w/ba10/5 i want to switch these around.both trans work well i like a manual better.will the pedal assembly work and will the cranksensor pickup work withe early flywheel or do i need a late fly wheel?thanks for any info

I think you need a later flywheel to work properly. But even so, that BA10 tranny is not a good tranny to use. The AX15 is a much better choice. The Peugeot tranny is known to be weak and prone to failure.

this trans is new rebuilt done by me.not trying to spend money on this !! alot of people are still running this. i agree ax15 is much better but ive got this one. how about a late 6spd!!!

I think someone posted that question and we never came to a consensus. Personally, I know almost nothing about that transmission. BUT If I have pics and specs on the bell housing as it relates to a 4.0 and output shaft spline count and rear bolt pattern, which should be the same, then I could probably answer that question. One other thing to consider is how the tcase would be clocked. I think most of those will come out of a wrangler of some sort with the case clocked much higher. Call Advance Adapters. I think they could answer that question for you.
