INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
This adapter kit is made for Jeep T18 4 speed transmissions that have an input shaft stickout length of 9-3/8". Before
proceeding with this adapter kit, measure the distance from the front of the transmission case to the very tip of the shaft
to verify the 9-3/8" length. If the shaft is 10" or longer, then you will need to exchange the kit you received.
The adapter kit consists of a complete adapter assembly, Part No. 712511, that will bolt to the #711521 adapter plate.
The plate should index together for proper alignment and you will use the 4 bolts provided for bolting the 2 plates together.
When the adapter plates are assembled to the front of the transmission case, you will require the stickout length to be
approximately 6-3/8". This stickout length will be compatible with your new V8 bellhousing.
1. Install the proper pilot bushing into the engine crank shaft.
2. Remove the bearing retainer from the front of the 4 speed transmission and cut the snout off as illustrated
to an overall length of 2-1/2". Bolt the retainer back to the 4 speed transmission using the original bolts
and make sure that it does not interfere with the new retainer on the adapter casting.
3. Bolt the adapter plate to the transmission case and make sure that the adapter plate indexes over the
modified bearing retainer. Use the original 4 bolts for assembling the plate to the transmission.
4. Bolt the new bearing retainer to the front of the adapter housing using the 4 bolts supplied.
5. Bolt the adapter plate to your new V8 bellhousing. The bellhousing must have a transmission index
diameter of 4.848".
