some of the very late YJ's and Then the TJ's had the 23 spline shaft behind the Ax5 / 2.5 combo...

Where have you seen this?  Every TJ AX5 I've seen is 21spline.  Even my '95 YJ was 21spline, and it's part TJ, even the 231 internals are a crossbreed between YJ and TJ.

never heard of 23 spline AX-5 either, i think the late TJs had the same t-case between 4 and 6 cyl but they didn't have the AX5 anymore.

Mine was made in june 94; I wonder how many splines i has...  Would defenetly be interesting to put a AX15 in there.
A '94 could have been made as early as '93.  A 95.5 could be made as late as '96.

My 94 has it. Thats why I brought it up. I was told by a dealer mechanic that Chrysler ran out of AX5 transmissions
in 94 and the later orders had the 23,, what can I say mine is the Bast*** version in more ways than that...
I know that they had a lot of trouble replacing my transmission when it blew up under warranty, took them 2 weeks to get
the parts.

I believe it was a toyota or Mazda part but since mine is working (knock on wood) I'm not going to worry too much right now..... LOL

How hard is it to find an AX15 throwout bearing for this swap? From what i've heard its different from the AX5 and NV3550 one.

I'm pretty sure they are the same (that's what i remember) but I'll check and report back shortly
 
EDIT:

same P/N all the way to 2006 (for the 4.0L) as the one for the AX5
Timken Part # 614093  Ball Bearing; Bore=1.435", Outer Diameter=3", Width=2.008"

this is for external slave AX5
