Anyone know of an easy swap for a 99 TJ auto 4 cyl. My 30RH is shot now and I need to replace it. I'd really like to replace it with something else. I've had nothing but problems with this one. This is the 2nd time this tranny has gone out on me. I had it rebuilt about 4 years ago in Hawaii. It never worked quite right after that and being deployed couldn't get it looked at again. Then moved to the mainland and that was the end of getting it fixed again. Anyway, its going going gone now and I need a replacement and I want to upgrade it with a different type, but I'm not super mechanical. I can do a lot of things, but swapping transmissions is pushing my limits. I need a recommendation for a replacement. Anyone got a recommendation?

i have a 99 tj buggy with the stock 5 speed tranny. I'v been running it off road for a few years and have never had problems. Although it is getting loose. Another alternative is an ax15. Not much for options as far as i know though :smt012

Looking for an automatic. I'm sure it would be too hard to swap out for a manual. Thanks for the advice.

Is it possible to swap in the 42RLE used in the 03+ Wranglers into it? I know the 42RLE was hooked to the 2.4L DOHC, but not quite sure if it would bolt to the 2.5 AMC.
