My bro your videos are awesome .I was going to have my SYE done but now I'm going to do it myself after watching this . Thanks man keep the jeep xj videos coming .

Note; your gears may have needle bearings inside them on older transfer cases. No big deal, all you need to do is press them out before sliding them on to the shaft. Also want to clean off the magnet and clean the filter on the fluid pickup before reinstalling the cover. Very clear instructions, nice job!! RC has a vid covering the removal of the needle bearings and checking the shaft bearings wile it's open (older high mileage cases especially).

You are correct, older model np231 cases had needle bearings. This was newer so it did not have them.

It was a great informative video and I really appreciate it. I’m going to be doing it on my 97 shortly thank you

Good video, as always. Just make sure that your ATF is compatible with Dexron III, as this is what you should use for this transfer case.

I installed this SYE back in 2006 on my 2005 wrangler unlimited a few months after I installed a 3-1/2" RE lift. Still working awesome after 66k miles.

Do you need to take off the transmission mount and exhaust hanger? I don't think either of them actually attach to the transfer case.

Good Job 👍🏻 XJs Rule 👍🏻💯%🇦🇺⛽️.

I attempted to pull the Tcase yesterday and had no luck getting access to the Tcase nuts on the passenger side thanks to the exhaust. Did you use a very small tool to break them loose? Do I have to remove, aka cut the exhaust off in order to get a standard wrench in there to remove the nuts?

What is that plug with the white (plastic)gasket ? Might be a dumb question I am just trying to learn. I’m leaking and I’m not sure if it’s from there or from above it and just running down to that plug

Great video!

should have used anaerobic sealant, it dries without the presence of air, and makes a tight seal, mopar recommended for trans and transfer case halves

This is a great video to follow along with. My only comment would be to let the RTV dry for about 5 mins before fully torquing the bolts down. That way you don't get as much pump out as seen in the video. Also, make sure to actually go 360* around lubed surfaces rather than 180*. Other than that, someone could easily use this video (and a spare set of hands) to swap the SYE out.

Great video! Thanks for sharing. I put in a Zone 4.5 inch lift kit with the full leaf spring and shackle package. Did your vibration go away? Maybe you did not have any after you installed the lift and drop. My setup vibrates a bit even with the crossmember drop in it. How about your pinion angles front and rear? Did you have to change that to accommodate the CV driveshafts? I was thinking about putting the old front CV driveshaft on the rear to see how it fit then have a local driveshaft shop build me a set. I do appreciate your videos. I think you are (please don't take this wrong) a guy that is on a budget like myself that isn't given parts for free like some of these YT superstars get on a regular basis.

Thanks! I haven't had any vibs really with the rear with the drop and SYE but rather the front shaft I have. The front has an even worse angle with a drop and wears the slip joint of the shaft out pretty fast. So I really wanted to get the SYE done to fix my front shaft vibs. I haven't even measured the rear angles at all but it ain't terrible, maybe later on ill shim it but its not causeing any vibs at the moment.
