Default NP 242 t-case leak - shifter linkage advice please
Got a leak coming from the shifter linkage to the transfer case, I've seen a couple threads on this, just need a bit of advice.

I believe its from a leaking o ring in the linkage, does anyone know the part number? Those tech drawings are pretty confusing!

Also do I need any of the retaining clips or bushings etc? any extra bits needed?

Lastly can this be done with transfer case in place, any pitfalls I should look out for?

Thanks!

Do I need to drain the fluid in order to do this?

Yes it's probably a good idea to do that, might as well replace the fluid while ur at it.
