came with a swapped in T-5 /300
The T-5 only came from the factory in a CJ5 in 82-83.
I recall 4,10s NT wagon.
My point, the short wheel base, 15" Transmission , and 4.5" lift, especially the lift, the diff was pointed to the sky without any mods to supply lube to the pinion bearing. It seized destroying the R&P. The kicker, a so called professional shop did the install.....I have the receipt.
It now has a D60 with 5.13 R&P.
