AX15 to replace PukeJoke in 87YJ?

I have found an AX15 on the cheap. The pugeot trans in my 87 YJ is shot. (imagine that) What all is interchangeable and what isn't? AKA how much of a headache is this going to be or is it a direct bolt in swap? Thanks for any help in advance.
btw. I am going to be lifting this YJ 4" and running 33's. Any known issues there that I need to know about with this trans set up?
This thing has to be an AX15 if its in an early YJ right? Its behind a webber carbed 258.
 
The ax15 has a 23 spline output to the tcase where the Puegoet has 21 spline. So you'll need to either get a tcase or swap the input's. The 231's are easy to come by.
 
Cool deal! Is that the only known issue? I think I am getting the whole Jeep so the T case will be with it. Any starter to flywheel issues, or input shaft/ pilot bearing issues known? :beer:

I think you'll want the clutch master cylinder to match the internal slave cylinder. I believe it may be a little longer as well, but I can't remember. It's been about 5 years since I did it.
