What manuel transmission will fit a 2006 jeep tj 4-cylinder?

The 2006 Jeep TJ 4-cylinder (2.4L) came with a specific AX-5 5-speed manual transmission. While other transmissions *might* physically fit, they won't be directly compatible without significant modification (or possibly not at all). The AX-5 is the only transmission designed to work correctly with the 2.4L engine, bellhousing, and the rest of the drivetrain in that year Jeep.

Trying to use a different transmission will likely involve major issues with:

* Bellhousing: The bolt pattern and overall design won't match.

* Input Shaft: The diameter and spline count will be different.

* Output Shaft: The size and spline count will likely be incompatible with the transfer case.

* Clutch Hydraulics: The master and slave cylinders might not work with the new transmission.

* Wiring: Some transmissions have electronic components that may not be compatible.

In short, stick with an AX-5 transmission when replacing the manual transmission in your 2006 Jeep TJ 4-cylinder. Anything else will be a very difficult and expensive undertaking.
