My transfercase broke a chain today..i found one with 150,000 miles and a sye already installed out of a 92 rolled xj for $400 is this a decent deal ...other than being rolled the jeep was very clean

 

Anybody ?

 

Can anyone let me know if 400 is a good deal

 

Not sure if its a steal, but doesn't sound like too bad of a price.

 

SYE is about $240, So $400 is not bad. If you could get it for $300 thats awesome.

 

I agree, I would try and get it knocked down to the $300. Having a SYE already installed just doesn't seem like justification for extra cost to me. Seems like when I was looking around thinking I might need one I was around $200 to pull one myself.

 

exactly! if you need it now see if you can talk him down a bit 300, 350 better then 400. But if in a pickle not to bad have you tried craigslist at all?

 

Ya found three on craigslist 1100 400 and150

 

$150 ??? What's wrong with it. That's too cheap IMHO. What you could always do is go to your local junkyard and just pull a t-case out of a cherokee. Check internals before buying. Cost you pretty cheap. SYE needed for 6.5+ lift. I run 5" on a slip yoke. No issues at full flex.

If anything the $400 looking the best if you don't wanna unbolt one from junkyard.

 

150 case had 300,000 miles on it at least thats what he said when I called...im up to 6.5 inches and already set up for elimanater

 

Nice!!! that's what I'll be going to next Then I'd say get the $400 one thats set up ready, see if ya can talk him down but looks like best bet.

 

Just talked to the guy and he also has a rustys lift 8.8 rearend

 

Is the tcase the same for a 5speed and automatic?? Mines auto his was a 5speed

 

Should be a direct swap, the only thing you have to look for is the spline count. If it's an AX-15 its 23 spline count, if its the AX-5 its a 21 spline count. Match spline count your splines if same then it should go in no problem

 

92 5 speed mines a 94
