===Jeep automatic transmissions, 1971-back=== Borg Warner M-8 automatic transmissions were used with the 230 OHC Jeep Tornado engine in the Jeep pickup and Wagoneer. The Buick 350 V8, 225 V6, and AMC 327 V8 engines used a Buick Nailhead pattern TH400 during the mid-to-late 1960s. The Nailhead pattern trans stayed in production after the Nailhead engine as the "Universal" TH400 due to the shallow bell, which allowed room for a thick adapter. It was also used by many other manufacturers such as Rolls Royce and Jaguar with an adapter ring. The AMC engines also used the TH400 with an adapter from 1969 until late 1973 when GM cast an AMC specific case (and discontinued the Universal TH400). The TH400 AMC case was used until the end of 1979 model production. The 232 AMC straight six engine used in 1968 to 1971 Jeeps used the Borg Warner automatic, as they were a smaller pattern than the AMC V8 until 1972. BW automatics were in the 2WD Jeep DJ "Postal Jeep". Transmission corresponded to the size engine, same as AMC car usage.
