Advance Adapters 712563 - Manual (Page 3)

surface. The 712563-S goes on first, the sheet metal oil shield second, and the aluminum housing last. Note the last
two pieces are installed backward compared to how they were removed from the AX5 transmission. Once the
transmission gets installed into the Jeep, the handle needs to be reinstalled.
10. Install the transmission into the Jeep and reconnect the starter flywheel sensor and hydraulics.
11. Install the new input gear to your transfer case and install the transfer case to the new transmission. The transfer case
shift bracket is normally installed through two of the bolt holes for the transfer case, so the new bracket should also
be installed.
12. The crossmember mount can be retained with a few modifications. The AX15 crossmember mount is approximately
2" further back than the AX5 transmission. The bolt pattern is also different. The AX15 has a square pattern different
than that of the AX5. The rubber support on the crossmember is the same square pattern as the AX15 transmission.
By unbolting the rubber support, you can use it as a template for the new holes that need to be drilled 1-3/4" to 2"
rearward on the mount. We found that it was easier to slot the steel mount side-to-side to allow for some adjustment
once installed into the vehicle. The front portion of the steel mount should be cut off as not to interfere with the new
transmission. We have included 4 spacer that get installed between the transmission and the steel mount to aid in
clearance. Once the mount is modified. reattach the rubber mount and install onto the transmission. The rubber mount
has four bolts that protrude from it. They should line up with the slots in the skid pan.
13. The handle needs to be reinstalled into the top of the AX15 transmission.
14. Drivelines need to be measured and modified.
