Transmission

The overall transmission case length is 24.00". The output shaft is 23 spline and protrudes approx. .400". AX15 from 1989-93 used an internal release bearing, while 1997-99 AX15 were switched to the external slave cylinder. We have seen both release systems used between 1994-96. The AX15 is very capable of handling the horsepower and torque of a V8 engine.

The input shaft length is 7-1/2" and has a spline dimension of 1-1/8", 10 spline, which is same as Chevy. The pilot tip diameter is .590" on 1989-93 models and .750" on 1994-99 models.
