    You're lucky you got that much use out of it, my VC started acting up about 115000, i agree a 242 is a better option depending on what the use but i put in a 247, installed the guy only charged me 1000.00 rebuilt with 1 year warranty, its been 10 years and still no problems, 247 is progressive like the models after the ZJ and the guy told me the 247 is easier on front tires and front end. I was thinking of rebuilding my 249 but just the VC and chain was close to 600.00

    So for getting to the number 6 bolt. Why don't you do that one first next time and lower the transmission slightly giving you more room to reach the bolt. Then raise it back up and put it on a jack stand to remove the remaining bolts?

    • @JeepSolid

    Quick question watched your video informative. But wondering if you know answer to a question since you work on these? I just did a tranny swap on a 2004 jeep liberty. swapped the tranny and transfer case together. Both Jeeps 2004.The donor jeep shifter has less like 4 high 4 low, the jeep i put into has 4 wheel part time , fulltime, and low. In other words I assume its technically 2 different transfer cases even though tranny same model and transfer case fits. The question is is there any problems with the differentials like is there a gear ratio in each transfer case?will my differentials work with any proper transfer case or are they mated by model. Does that make sense? I'm now worried about having a mismatched drivetrain. Hoping its OK, seems to drive ok

    Good morning, sorry for my bad English.
    These days I have removed the transfer case from my jeep zj to replace the chain and bearings.
    After having extracted it, I realized that after having removed it, transmission oil began to drip. 1 liter approx. (Previously no leakage)
    Is there a front seal between the two shafts?
    BETWEEN THE TWO BOX COMPONENTS THERE ARE NO GASKETS.
    Before reassembling I would like to know if it happened to you too. Thanks to whoever can help me.

    those drive shaft bolts dont come off so easily most of the times. many diy videos just show steps without real world problems. i just apply lot of oil a day or two days prior to the job. also use degreaser later and then with the help of simple extension pipe. that way you can save your energy for more important part of the job.

      You have to drop the transmission and transfer case slightly in order to pull the transfer case back and down. Otherwise there isn’t enough clearance to separate the two. But you don’t want the whole drive train hanging by the motor mounts in the front, so you support the transmission as you drop it a little.

I put it in 4 part time then it will go and he grinding is not as loud. Most likely xfer case ?! And is it a 242 ? Select track ? Also is it same as the 95 Jeep taking it out like ur video ?

I went to shift it to 4lo to test the tcase, wouldn't move, had trans in neutral to shift to 4lo, went to shift back into A4WD and it made a grinding noise. Was it caused by me not doing it right, or is this a mechanical problem?

    I have a 04 grand cherokee, I put into reverse leaving a family members house when after a foot of travel it felt like I backed into another car. The shifter seemed to be wedged between reverse and neutral and wouldn't budge until I turned key off. I started vehicle and could finally shift through the gears but jeep wouldn't move. Does what I've described sound of a transfer case problem?

      You should be able to get to the VC without removing the entire case, but it makes it easier to get to all the bolts and when you RTV it back together.

    Thanks for the video, I wanted to change the transfer case to my jeep grand Cherokee Laredo 2006 3.7 v6 4x4, but I did not do it anymore, better take it to the mechanic, it is not so easy to do it, but thank you for your video.

    You really ought to edit the title so it has the correct model of vehicle. Us XJ owners have a hard enough time filtering out correctly labeled Grand Cherokee information without having to deal with mislabeled articles and videos. Thanks.

    • @lelandglisson3392
      @lelandglisson3392 4 роки тому

      The 231 and 242 does not use a viscous coupler. They use planetary type gears that allow for MANY miles of off-road fun as long as they are maintained properly and the 242 has a differential in it to divide power. Hope that helps.

      @@michaelcalderon4401 You will get way more aftermarket support on a 231. Some believe that the 231 is a stronger case over the 242 but, I think those perceived benefits would be minimal at best. If you can find a decently priced 231, go for it. If you find a decently priced 242, don't pass that up either. I went with the 242 because it was easier and more economically sourced out here in So Cal than the 231.
