    Hi, my daughter wants to convert the yj from manual transmission to an automatic. I did some searching amd found this...
    http://offroad-review.com/new/index.php?page=102

    So I think it can be done and I think I have transmission located.

    Anyone done this or have any comments?

    Thanks

    I like this. Please post pics of your build. I read the article and it seems pretty straight forward. :popcorn:

    The auro trans I found was wrong. So this is on hold or may not happen as long as jeep runs well.
