An adapter to fit the AX-15 would also fit the NV3550 jeep trans, with a higher torque rating and a 4.0-1 first gear.

Have you figured out the pilot bearing yet? Early AX-15's use one size, (15mm). 1992 and later ones used a larger nose on the input shaft, as do NV3550's (.750").

The only thing that would need to be done is having the flywheel machined out to fit the bigger pilot bearing.
Also making sure the clutch disk would stay in the maximum
Surface area. All that's left is adapter thickness to get the right spacing for the trans input shaft. To me this project has proved anything's possible if you plane it out.
