so heres my dilemma , i have a blown t case, and my jeep has been in the side of my house for 2 months, the township is pissed! and i have till the end of this month to fix it, the problem is i dont have the money for a t case, so my question is, how cheap is it to make it 2WD for the time being so that it moves??

 

Put a 2wd trans in the thing. Might have to get a new rear driveshaft. It would probably be cheaper to get a tcase. Around here at the junkyards they can be had for about 100 bucks.

 

Pull the front shaft? or is it so blown up you could not do that either.

Btw moved thread.

 

i wasnt sure if the trans was the same cause if i could drop the grenaded t-case and throw in a 2WD shaft (which i assume is longer and has something on the end to mount to the trans) that would be great.

 

Where are you located? Im at 37841. If you're close I've got a transfer case id sell you.

 

im in jersey 08010

 

Little far away. Shipping would probably be too high.

 

Not possible.. a 2wd trans would be required.

What transfer do you need.. 231 or 242?

 

I got a 242

edit* i HAD a 242

 

you can find t case on craigslist all day long for 100 bucks!!!

 

every t-case ive found is like 300

 

www.naxja.org Check the classifieds in the North Atlantic Chapter forum, you may find one local.

Unless someone here hooks you up.

 

Will it try to pull at all with the Tcase ya have now ?
There are at least ten on ebay right now between $150 and 225 with free shipping..... just make sure ya get one with the right # of splines on its input shaft as yours... pull yours and count them to be sure. You can have yours out in under a hour.

If ya cant do any of those, towstrap it to a friends house to keep em off ya.

 

hmmm, this might be a long shot,... but,... what if you "Hack and tap" the output shaft of the transmission and put a yoke on it? Like the Rubicon express SYE "Hack and Tap",...



As long as u find a yoke that will fit over the splines, i think u'd be good to roll. At least move it around so the homeowners association will get off your back.
