The overall assembly length is 26.125". These kits use an adapter plate that bolts to the stock AMC bellhousing. The adapter plate require the use of a 1976-86 stock Jeep bellhousing from a T150 and T176. These bellhousings permit an easy adaptation to the Dodge NV4500 transmission. The original Jeep clutch linkage is retained since you are using your original bellhousing. Driveline modifications will be required with NV4500 transmission replacements. These kits are not compatible with short wheel-based vehicles such as CJ5 models. A new index Dana 300 retainer is provided in the kit for proper indexing. Some crossmember modifications are necessary, and a body lift is recommended.

NOTE: RE: 712553 Adapter Plate Kit - Between 1976-86, there were several Jeeps that were equipped with a 6-1/2" bellhousing depth. This bellhousing had a Ford bolt pattern along with the Ford index diameter fo 4.848". By using the Advance Adapters adapter plate on these applications, you can easily adapt the Dodge NV4500 to your original AMC bellhousing. This adapter plate can be used on all AMC 258 6 cylinders and AMC V8s. The stock clutch linkage does not require modifications since the original bellhousing is being retained. NOTE: If your vehicle was equipped with a T4, T5 or SR4 transmission, you will need to drill & tap your bellhousing in order to bolt to this adapter. A new pilot bushing is provided in the kit to fit the tip of the NV4500 input shaft. Your stock clutch components can be retained; however, a new clutch disc and pressure plate should be used. The transmission must be the Dodge Standard Duty NV4500 with the 7-1/2" input shaft stickout length.
