neohic Posted November 13 Share Posted November 13 Good folks of CC- I’m looking for a NP 242 transfer case. What’s everybody got sitting around? Obviously the closer to central Colorado the better, but I will be driving up to Minnesota in December if anybody is along the way. Edit: Input spline not a huge deal, but ideally 21. I can swap inputs between my 231 if I need to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted November 14 Share Posted November 14 you should specify input spline count 242s were still in use in some KJs. not sure what all differences there might be though that might negate it as an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WJ and KJ 242's don't have a provision for a speedometer gear. The output shaft has no teeth for the gear and the tail housing hasn't been machined to accept a speedometer gear. I think that is the only major difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle_SX4 Posted November 14 Share Posted November 14 Check car-part.com and search for 1988 Jeep Cherokee Transfer case and select the 242. Looks like there is a one in Colorado. High milage though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokeyyank Posted November 14 Share Posted November 14 I'll be on the lookout. Did you check with timbukthree? I know they are moving but I saw they are clearing out a bunch of stuff. I had chatted with Neal a few months ago about building my 242HD but the SYE was the issue. Not sure if he has any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
