New AX15 Options
This new AX15 transmission features every available update and upgrade known, including a stronger gear alloy and refined shifter components.
This AX15 is the later style, 1994-1999 configuration which features the cast iron front bearing retainer with a throwout bearing sleeve for the bellhousings that are configured for an external slave clutch release system. The shaft also features the ~3/4" pilot tip. Pilot bushings may be found here.
Novak's AX15 comes with a new, straight shifter stick, ready to bend to driver preference, and grey anodized aluminum shifter knob.
Rebuilt AX15 Options
In addition to our brand new AX15, we now offer professionally rebuilt AX15 transmissions. Choose a standard rebuild or step up to our Level 1 Rebuild, which addresses known weak links in the AX15:
- Hardened chromoly thrust washer - upgraded material and hardening to better handle axial loads and reduce wear.
- Billet steel bearing retainer plate - replaces the OE stamped piece with a robust billet part for improved rigidity and durability.
The Level 1 package is engineered for longevity under real Jeep use—towing, bigger tires, trail duty, and highway miles.

Let us know if you are installing your new AX15 into an XJ or MJ vehicle so we can provide you with a tailhousing that is drilled for the appropriate 10 deg. down-clocked position required to clear the taller transmission tunnels in these Jeeps.
We can do a full rebuild of your transfer case if you ship it to us. Many transfer case upgrades components are available. It will be pre-installed to the transmission and ready to install in your Jeep.
*Though the AX15 can be joined to the Dana 18 & 20 transfer cases, the short wheelbase Jeeps they are typically found in are generally too short. The longer CJ6, CJ7 and CJ8 Jeeps are, however, potential candidates.

We can also integrate your AX15 into a full Turnkey Powertrain Package with engine, transmission, transfer case and controls all assembled, tested and ready to install in your vehicle.
