This video was posted at the perfect time! I have to remove mine due to a leak. Thank you!

Take some ratchet straps and place them on both sides of what ever you are after and use them carefully to lower the heavy part you need. Sometimes this will help save time by not having to disassemble every thing, I use this method for transmissions, rear diffentals. Plus it also helps prevent you from dropping parts on yourself

The ratchet straps also save your life if anything falls

thanks for this vid mat. still helping me years later

This video helped me a lot. I looped a ratchet strap through the front doors and under the transfer case while I removed the lower nuts. Then I was able to easily lower the T case and reach the top nuts. It was super easy, and took me about 30 minutes. The hardest part was removing the nut on the driver's side that is behind the bracket.

helpful vid, thanks. but maybe give the tcase a bit softer landing, to avoid bending those bolts or damaging the threads. and probably don't just toss it on the ground after either :D

Hey Mat. This video popped up in my feed three days ago.It's funny because I planned to go to the pull a parts to get a 247 transfer case.Your video helped me alot.thanks man

Its always good relief after skinning your knuckles getting your part out, carry it up and drop it then light a cigarette.

Hahahahahaha, after all that... Just throw it on the ground... We don't need it... Video is done, LMFAO !!!

this is perfect. buddies Dodge Dakota Tcase blew up on him. he has the 231 and im gonna show this video to him and we are both going to a junkyard to go pull one. thanks for the video Matt!

Thank you! I just successfully pulled an NP242J from a 93 xj 2 days ago, using knowledge from this video. The only issue I hit was 2 8mm bolts stripped on the front drive shaft to transfer case , so I had to buy drive shaft as well. But Pick N Pull told me I can return the drive shaft, and a friend managed to get them out for me.

What's safer, bringing a jack into the salvage yard, or dropping a transfer case on your head? That rule makes a lot of sense.

I think they should allow the use of a jack with either supervision or require you to explain exactly what they need it for... I can understand WHY they are concerned, but a lot of times it could be necessary.

holy clean junkyard

Thanks for the video.. ive taken a 242 off on my own Jeep by supporting the transmission and lowering it a bit.. ajd cutting a wrench to get to the top nut.. So i was thinking i had to do the same thing in the jy. But i guess i can just let the thing drop fully lile you did and have easy access to it lol. I was worried it would like break the transmission if i let it drop but i guess its all being held by the engine mounts.. which i didnt realize. Should nake ny trip to get a 249 off a 5.9 zj easier. My 5.9 zj tc is bad.. bad chain.. bad bearings. Other stuff.. makes lots of noises when driving. I suspect my transmission has issues too as it whines in 1st-3rd when rolling.. not sitting just rolling. But i cant afford the 46re and 249 together atm.. So i guess 1 outa 2 aint bad.

My 2001 Jeep Sport, you would have to hold a wrench on the inside nut for the cross bracket.

Damn Im trying to get one off a Titan. 10 BOLTS! That thing is unbelievably STUCK on there! You made it look so easy. Maybe it wants some PB Blaster?! The 4lb sledge and a 2x4 has gotten me nothing but a pile of kindling lol. Yours just came right off I'm so jealous.

wouldnt recommend this method if you plan on re installing anything..works great for the junkyard but my friend tried to do the same method in his driveway and put a hole in the radiator and valve cover, dented the hood outward as well as broke his exhaust manifold,engine mounts, and power steering pump when he dropped the engine that far.

hey Matt I got to the six bolt part but there is this metal plate on the driver's side that has something to do with the linkage and seems to cover things up.I didn't see it in your video. I'm trying to pull an NP 242 off an '89 XJ. The bolts are 15 mm on the jeep I was working on. How do you get the plate off?

Doing it tomorrow.

Dropping it like this cause any damage to the engine or transmission?

It might crack or break around the mounting tabs on the transmission to engine. Otherwise, the tcase is fine. Just don’t chuck it on the ground afterwards lol it is only cast aluminum after all lol!

Get an oil pan, when I did this a gallon of t.f. dumped out of the tranny!😀🤣😄😅P.s.thank you bleepin jeep!!!!!!!!💪👍love your videos!

depending on the junkyard, some leave the scissor jacks inside the vehicles. when I pulled mine, we used on of those (on top of a stray wheel) to support the trans pan. then lowered it slowly from there.....slightly safer, hahaha. great video still. you must've set up a cot at that place for a little while for these videos, haha.

well done video... Please add to video to include rope, among necessary tools. 4ft of 1/4" -3/8" plastic rope..quite important to make an easy job. just tie rope loosely around trf case for safety and ease.

I have a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7L with the Quadra-Drive system with a bad transfer case. Was wanting to know if and what the difference in the T-case from an 00 to an 02 with 4.7L and Quadra-Drive is? I went to 2 different recycle yards and was told the T-Case from a 02 4.7L w/Quadra-Drive will NOT fit My 2000?? I'm looking at a T-case from a 02 because of it's price and low miles.

just did this the other day. try splitting one in the yard to retrieve the 6 pinion sungear and 27 spline input shaft from a NP241. no jacks allowed at our pick-n- pull either I always take a ratchet strap to use to lift stuff or support it.

How did you take the nut off the side where the linkage bracket is i tried a wrench and no space

You must have been pissed that day, as was I when I did 2 transfer case uninstalls in the same day. One manual, one automatic.(manual is mine)

This video is useless if you are trying to remove an NP231 case from a Cherokee that you care about i.e. trying to fix. After 4 hours of wrenching (or attempting to) the only way I see is dropping the whole transmission assy with the transfer case. Also if you want an SYE made in USA - you need to get an Advance Adapters manufactured unit. Rough Country and others are mostly Chinese (Outland aka Omix-Ada)

did mine just fine without dropping the whole thing...getting the top bolts off is a pain but we got it through the center console. did take us about 4 hours to get it out but i didnt have all the tools i needed or a lift..probably couldve leaned it back further on the engine mounts but i didnt want to break anything
