Armand, Richard, 
Yes the info you give is correct Armand.
IIRC the AX15 trans in the XJ series Jeeps use the same shaft.
I also got a clutch kit listing for an 88 Eagle that should work, looking it up on Rockauto, for some reason they have deleted the clutch kit for the 82 Concord? I know it was listed? 

Jeeps also used a T5 behind the six in Cjs up through 86.
I'd work with a local parts place and if they can't find the Concord listing. I would got to an 86 CJ with 5speed/T5. 
Should be a direct bolt in replacement. I'm not sure of the exact Concord disc size, but it is 10" +- a fraction.

I have a 91 disc and diaphram pressure plate here from a 91 Wrangler that I test fitted to a T5 and is seemed to be correct at the time also.

Using a local shop should allow you to test fit and not get burned on shipping charges if you do not get the right disc the first time.

Richard,

I am guessing here but it's probably fairly accurate.
The 79 304 with a SR-4 four speed had a nine inch clutch and plate.
The input shaft on the transmission is 1-1/8 inch diameter with 10 splines.
If you check your transmission's input shaft diameter and spline count and
find them the same, I believe you have found a cross over part for your car.
If you decide to go to a larger clutch and pressure plate, make sure the
flywheel
is already drilled and tapped for that larger plate, otherwise it's not
worth it.
I think AMC had a 1-1/8 inch 10 spline input shaft in the T-5 transmissions
too.
I hope some one corrects me if I'm wrong on this.

Hey Group,

Trying to find a clutch kit for the 82 Concord wagon, 5-speed.  Nothing is
available even for pressure plate.  It's gotta be the same as something
else?  5-speed in wagon, not too popular in 1982.  When comparing the Eagle,
that gets into the hydralic set up, right?  What other should be the same,
Jeep?  It does have the 9" clutch plate.  THANKS again for all your wisdom
you are sharing.

Blessings,
Richard
