      Description

      High-Tensile Strength for Extreme Torque Loads. The Manual Transmission Main Shaft is the primary structural backbone of the gearbox in 1980 Jeep CJ5 & CJ7 models, specifically engineered to transmit engine power from the input assembly to the transfer case. Manufactured from high-alloy forged steel and precision heat-treated, the Manual Transmission Main Shaft is designed to resist twisting and snapping under the high-torque demands of off-road crawling and heavy-duty towing. This robust construction ensures that the Manual Transmission Main Shaft remains true and straight, providing the structural foundation necessary for a reliable and long-lasting 4x4 drivetrain.

      Precision-Cut Splines for Flawless Gear Engagement. Every Manual Transmission Main Shaft features micro-machined splines and journals that provide a perfect interface for sliding sleeves, synchronizer hubs, and fixed gears. The Manual Transmission Main Shaft is held to incredibly tight dimensional tolerances to ensure that each gear slides smoothly along its length without binding or excessive slop that can lead to gear clashing. By maintaining the exact factory-specified geometry for the 1980 Jeep CJ5 & CJ7 transmissions, the Manual Transmission Main Shaft restores the crisp, mechanical shifting feel that Jeep enthusiasts expect from a well-tuned manual gearbox.

      Installation. Putting this Manual Transmission Main Shaft on your Jeep CJ5 & CJ7 takes 6 hours to install.

      Warranty. There is a limited warranty on this product.

      Application. The Manual Transmission Main Shaft fits 1980 Jeep CJ5 & CJ7 models.
