I belive I have a stock NP231 tc. But compared with photos on Google it looks like there are more parts. It got a tail cone, some rusted parts and a big donut. Whats all this?

 

The ring on the driveshaft is a dampener, the thing hanging by the tail must be a vibration dampener but have never seen that type before. Seeing the flange for the front shaft may say it's a 207 case but that red tag on the rear of the case will tell for sure. It's stamped as to what it is.

 

What year is that? Certainly a new one to me.

 

Can you snap a couple more pics from different angles?

 

Yeah, grab a couple more pics. Hard to tell from just one angle.

 

Great, I will take some more pics tomorrow, to dark and cold outside now.

2000 sport, 2.5TD

 

Yeah that definitely doesn't look like my 231. As was said the red tag will tell you what is it.

 

No mention of any of this in my 2000 XJ parts fiche or in either the gas or diesel sections of my 2000 FSM.

Second the glance at the red tag... could just be some aftermarket or junkyard finds bolted on though

 

Subscribed, I want to see the answer to this one!

 

i'm thinkin this is a european cherokee, a.k.a. liberty.

but that still doesn't explain the two tail shafts...

 

KJ didn't come out until 2002 model year. 2.5TD VM Motori was on all of the post-Renault XJs overseas

 

i believe the europeans called the cherokee a liberty.... that does not look like a 231 case at all.

 

Close. Europeans called the Liberty a Cherokee, though.

 

It's named Cherokee Sport.


New Prosess 231 J it says.

 

Is it some kind of disconnect for the rear driveline as used when towing behind a motorhome?
