AX5 Transmissions At Wholesale Prices
At Street Smart, we provide remanufactured transmissions shipped factory direct at wholesale prices to save you money.

Put simply, a remanufactured transmission is a used transmission that has been returned to a like-new condition. Each remanufactured AX5 is built in our state of the art factory by skilled Certified technicians. They test everything from metal thickness to spring tension before the process begins. And every “hard part” that doesn’t measure up to the manufacturer’s original specifications, gets replaced. By the time it’s finished, a reman transmission should perform exactly like a new one. Now let’s take a closer look at what sets a Street Smart Transmission apart from the rest: 

All Gears & Shafts Meet OEM Specifications 

All of the gears and the main shaft inside each remanufactured AX5 that we produce, is carefully inspected for cracks and tested for straightness. Any hard part that shows signs of wear or damage is immediately replaced. 

Upgraded Seals & Gaskets 

To increase longevity, every remanufactured AX5 transmission gets upgraded seals and gaskets that are made from a stronger heat resistant material. This upgrade is especially important for severe service (towing, off-roading, performance driving), where heat buildup can be a serious concern. 

Durable Bearings 

All of the new hardened bearings in a remanufactured AX5 transmission not only perform better under load. They also create less friction for reduced operating temperatures and a longer transmission life. 

Fully Inspected & Dyno Tested 

Every remanufactured Street Smart Transmission undergoes multiple inspections by Certified inspectors throughout the build process. Once complete, your newly remanufactured AX5 transmission is dyno tested to break-in all of the new parts, and to ensure that everything works correctly prior to shipment. And speaking of, shipping is always Free, and you also get a 3-Year/Unlimited Mile Nationwide Warranty that covers parts and labor for repairs that are performed by any licensed repair shop in the country. 

Designed for use in such legendary off roaders as the Jeep Cherokee and Jeep Wrangler, the Aisin Warner AX5 transmission is very similar to the previous AX4 transmission, except with the addition of an overdriven 5th gear. This Jeep 5 speed manual transmission features a split case design, with a number of improvements that were intended to make it more suitable for off-road use. For example, the input shaft on the Jeep AX5 transmission measured 1 inch in diameter and featured 14 splines and a 7 1/2 inch stick out length. Prior to 1997, the 21 spline output shaft was originally flush with the rear tail housing, but was eventually extended one half an inch beyond the rear tail housing. This allowed the Jeep AX5 transmission to be compatible with the NP207 transfer case and NP231 transfer case.
