WTB Mercedes OM617 to Jeep AX-15 kit
WTB Mercedes OM617 to Jeep AX-15 kit
I have a homemade 1/4" aluminum adapter plate I bought from a guy down in VA, comes with a Jeep flywheel drilled to the merc pattern.
I never installed it, he said that it ate a pilot bearing-which makes me think that you'd want to use a pilot bushing to align everything while you're assembling it.

He finnally came thru *nod to greazzer*
Looks like a little surface rust.
Full disclosure, I have never fitted this to an OM617 or an AX-15. I would HIGHLY recommend getting a pilot bushing or alignment tool (basically a steel pilot bushing) to make sure it all lines up straight.
You will still need to come up with fasteners and a pilot bushing that fits, but those are both easy to procure.

hmmm its a little rougher than i was expecting, but looks like it will do the job. How about $150 shipped to zip code 95370? i found i can get a pilot bushing from a 73 cj-5, same exact size as the pilot bearing, just a bushing. thanks for the headsup on that! why didn't you end up using it?

01-20-2013, 11:36 AM #13I never used it because my plan changed. A running DJ5 came by for $350, so I went that route. I'm now sitting on a DJ5, SM465, NP205, and mildly built 617.
