Replace Jeep Wrangler gearbox | Standard and used exchange

The Jeep Wrangler has always appealed for its athletic lines and power. By reinventing itself over the years, it incorporates technologies that are increasingly advanced and, above all, the powertrain undeniably gains in performance. However, we would like to draw your attention to one part: the gearbox. In the event of significant deterioration, it will no longer be able to perform its functions, which will affect road handling and lead to significant losses in terms of reliability.

How to recognize a problem Gearbox Jeep Wrangler?

The Gearbox jeep wrangler yj used or new and all other versions are wear parts. This means that they may encounter problems during their lifetime. Whether manual or automatic, the gearbox should always be serviced regularly. This good habit will save you a lot of inconvenience. Despite all your precautions, it is still possible that a shock or an accident could damage the part. A repair or even a replacement should therefore be considered.

The appropriateness of an intervention depends, however, on the problem itself. That is why it is important to note the warning signs.

If your off-roader is equipped with a manual transmission, common symptoms are as follows. There's the difficulty of shifting gears: the gearbox seems stuck and it stays pretty hard even when you're fully engaged. Gears may also jump or the lever may resist your attempts to operate it. In other cases, the transmission makes strange noises such as creaking noises when shifting gears. Another common sign of a malfunction is an oil leak Gearbox jeep wrangler.

 

 

Do you have an automatic transmission? Trouble can be manifested by jerks felt when starting and/or accelerating. The same reaction can occur when changing gears. The grunts should also alert you.

Several factors may be involved. One can quote the quality of the parts if they are not original anymore, the lack of maintenance or the inadequacy of the products used for the draining Gearbox jeep wrangler jk , JL, TJ or YJ. The way you drive can also affect gearbox wear. The same applies to the condition of the roads on which you drive your Wrangler. If any of the above symptoms or any other suspicious signs occur, make an appointment for a thorough diagnosis immediately.

 

What's the reference for your Jeep Wrangler gearbox?

We refer to Gearbox wrangler yj for all references associated with models produced from 1987 onwards. This first generation is equipped with a non-permanent 4-wheel drive, coupled to diesel and petrol engines.

The Gearbox jeep wrangler yj from 1987 to 1990 can correspond to the reference AX-4 for a 4-speed mechanical gearbox or to the code BA 10/5 for the 5-speed manual version. The AX-5 gearbox as well as the reference AX-15 are present on models produced until 1996, generously offering 5 manual gears. Over the same period, the Jeep Wrangler is offered with the TF999 transmission, a 3-speed automatic version.

The second generation was introduced in 1997, with production continuing until 2006. The part you're interested in is a Gearbox jeep wrangler tj if your vehicle corresponds to this generation, whose version called Unlimited arrived on the market in 2004. Make no mistake, because not all models of the same generation are equipped with the same transmission system. You'll need to clearly identify the transmission that suits your Wrangler before you consider removing it.

 

 

Let's start with the BVMs, the mechanical boxes. From 1997 to 1999, Jeep keeps the AX-15 and its 5 gears. Between 2000 and 2004, the wrangler manual gearbox is mainly referenced NV3550. The reference NV2550 equips the TJ of 2003 and 2004. If you have a Jeep Wrangler of 2005 or 2006 and it is equipped with a mechanical gearbox with 6 gears, it is probably the reference NSG370 which will allow you to solve the encountered dysfunctions.

As for the BVAs - including automatic transmissions - it's the 30/32RH reference that Jeep offered on the Wrangler from 1997 to 2002. It is replaced by the 42RLE from 2003 to 2006.

Produced from 2007 onwards, the JK version is the third generation of the off-roader. As for its predecessors, the Gearbox jeep wrangler jk exists under several references. The NG370 is used from 2007 to 2018 to accompany the 2.8 CRD, 3.6 petrol and 3.8 petrol engines. The 545RFE automatic transmission is coupled to the 2.8 CRD engine until 2010 before being replaced by the NAG1/W5A580 from 2001 to 2018. Still in the BVA range, the 42RLE is chosen to equip the Wrangler 3.8 produced between 2007 and 2011, while the NAG1/W5A580 is chosen for the 3.6 engine from 2012 to 2018.

The JL generation is introduced in 2017 and introduced to the market the following year. The 2.8 CRD diesel engine and its companion V6 3.6 petrol engine are no longer available in France. They are replaced by new engines: 2.0L MultiAir petrol 270 hp and 2.2 MultiJet 200 hp. Both these options benefit from an 8-speed automatic transmission.

The multiple modifications carried out on the Jeep Wrangler make the different references incompatible. In other words, you can't interchange the Gearbox automatic jeep wrangler jk with a Gearbox jeep tj without checking the exact reference. As an example, the AX-15 and the BA 10/5 are not interchangeable.

 

How to solve the problem Gearbox automatic Jeep Wrangler?

The gearbox is a delicate part, which is just as true for BVAs as it is for BVMs. The first thing to do in the event of a malfunction is to have your Wrangler diagnosed by a specialist. The latter will tell you the best solution: change the gearbox of your jeep wrangler jk, change the oil Gearbox jeep wrangler yj, replace specific components, replace the entire gearbox, etc...

If replacement is necessary, don't succumb to the temptation to play mechanic. For starters, a gearbox is heavy and difficult to handle. Then, removal is complex because there are precise steps to follow and no errors are tolerated because the newly installed gearbox must be 100% operational and reliable.

 

 

Reprogramming may be necessary if the intervention concerns an automatic transmission. As explained above, the references each have their own particularities. The settings of a Gearbox wrangler tj will therefore not necessarily be identical to the settings adapted to the gearboxes fitted to the YJ, JK and JL. This confirms once again the importance of using a specialized craftsman.

Moreover, take advantage of the repair to ask for maintenance advice: oil change intervals Gearbox automatic jeep wrangler jk or oil change Gearbox jeep wrangler yj, oil type Gearbox jeep wrangler jk, oil Gearbox jeep wrangler tj, etc.
