Have u spent any time under the rig.

Most of the transfer cases have a stamp on them, it they havn't been ripped off. It's got what u jneed right there. It's a circle, has some red around the eges.

Am at work or I would post a pic for u.

Someone will soon.

If your shift pattern is 2wd - 4wd - 4lo its an NP231.

If it has Fulltime and part time 4WD its a 242
