- 1982 Jeep CJ-7 w/258 I-6 and SR-4 4spd. w/stock diff and t-case, 2011 Chevy Silverado Z-71 Ext cab.
In January I bought a 1982 Jeep CJ7 . It has approximately 96k miles on it's AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l I-6 with SR4 4-spd Transmission . I believe this Transmission must have been a leftover from 1981 (my Jeep was manufactured in Fall '81), because all the info I can find tells me that the T-176 , T-4 , and T-5 were offered in '82 and later models. However, my shift pattern is an H with reverse being left and up outside the H, consistent with SR4 shift pattern. Does anyone else have an '82 with an SR4 ?
My next question: I need to replace my worn flywheel and starter. While I have my tranny down, should I go ahead and shuck the poorly-reviewed SR4 and replace with something else?
