Is there a detailed write up on how to install a SYE on a 231 Transfer Case. I saw the one in the How To section. I just want to see if theres an even more detailed installation. Thanks for your help.

Did your new SYE kit not come with detailed instructions? Mine did and so did the one I put in my buddies TJ.

 

Hey blue what kit did ya use on your 242? Not to hijack but since a link was posted..

 

I came with instructions but It didnt have much picture to figure out what they were out.

 

It is also pretty well explained in your FSM JC.

 

OverlandXJ gave me a link to a pretty good one that will help me alot.

 

what no sharing of the wealth.. j/k I am going to have to do and SYE just gotta find out exactly what to do and how to do it with a 242 tcase..sometimes I wish I had a 231..

 

yeah.....i got a 242 and would also appreciate any install threads, is there much difference in installing a SYE on a 242 vs a 231?

 

Here try this out

Procedure is the same, but fewer companies are offering SYE's for the NP242.

 

why is that

 

Honestly i'm not sure. Doesnt seem there would be much more machining involved vs a 231 shaft.

I run a Currie unit on my XJ, been perfect for 8 years and 35K miles now. It's a stock output shaft cut/tapped that you purchase through an exchange.

 

In other words Currie is charging you for the cutting and tapping. But it isn't any stronger or better engineered than your stock one that you hack n tap.

 

Maybe demand? There aren't that many 242's out there compared to 231's. All i ever hear about is 231's and every once in a while a 242 comes around.
