trans help???

[doublelauto]

i have a 82 CJ8 that i just bought and has massive bearing noise in the Transmission , fluid sample showed water intrusion. I thought it had a T-4 in it so i bought one off a friend of mine, went to pull my old Transmission out and its appears to be a T-176 . will this still fit. Any help would be appreciated

If it were mine I would rebuild the T-176 , it is a much better Transmission ...

hey cj man thanks for the reply and unfortnatly i dont have the time or money do that right now, big hunting trip tomorrow!!! just hoping this T-4 will bolt in??????

I dont think the T-4 will be a bolt up replacement, you will need some more parts like the Bell housing, linkages are different, the overall length I beleive is also different, I think it can be done but not an easy task
