NP231 to NP241 Swap
 

I have the chance to get my hands on a NP241 transfer case from a Chevy
manual tranny. Will this transfer case work in place of my NP231? I heard
or read somewhere that the 241 is stouter than the 231. Can anyone verify
this

TIA

The 241 is rated at a little less torque but it's basically
comparable. The real issue you will have is the length: the 241 is
longer so you'll need a rear driveshaft change as well, which may be a
real problem if this is a YJ/TJ (you don't say). The front shaft will
be fine.

Opps forgot that. It was going to under my 94YJ. That came to a screeching
halt Friday night after I flipped mine. Now I get to spend my time putting
everything back together before going to Gray Rock this coming weekend.

A real Jeeper would have done the swap while the shiny side was
downwards.
