Hello
My user name should be CanadianCook but I screwed up. Anyway I have a 92 cherokee with the 4.0 lt,AW4,242, 8 1/4 with 3.55, a 4 inch BDS lift and a Pro Comp tracbar. I'm going to shoot my T-case soon I think, the front end jumps in and out of 4WD part time high and low range. I had a shop pull it a part last year and check it out they said the shift guides were in good shape, it shifts ok and now the damn thing makes a low humming noise in full time on the highway. Any ideas on what the problem could be? I like the full time for winter driving on the highway. Should I buy a new one from dodge? Prices are $1600 for the 242 or $1195 for the 231. I can get a 231 from the wrecker for $500 I'm told this is a direct bolt in other than the rear drive shaft is this true?Is the 231 shorter than the 242? Both cases are big money new from dodge. I know the 242 has more moving parts in it does that make it less reliable? I am planning on regearing to 4.10's that wouldn't make a difference on the t-case right? Any suggetions would be great.
Thanks
