Does anyone have a np242 for an 89 hanging around gathering dust?
I think mine might be going out.

It, however, isn't as strong as the 231 and parts aren't as readily available for it. Maybe you should look into swapping in a 231 for your dying 242. Does your 242 have the sye and other modified stuff? You might be able to use most/all of it on a 231. Just a thought.

Big Red said:Sorry, I'm just :yap: I was just advising to go with a 231 if a 242 cannot be found soon and cheap. I'll leave this thread alone now, my zj needs the 242 eventhough it is down now with a blown tranny.

I have a SYE on the 242. Are the 231's 21 spline like the 242?Big Red said:Does your 242 have the sye and other modified stuff? You might be able to use most/all of it on a 231. Just a thought.

Onkover said:The 231 is a direct swap... believe me ... I have done it. The donor was a 95 and it got put into my 92. Didn't even need to adjust the linkage!!

Cracked it open it had been rebuilt recently :clapping:
now I can't get the linkage to line up....:giveup: :looser:
