Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

my shaft can beat up your shaft

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Is the rear shaft length the same?

If the shafts are a different length it doesn't matter. When my stepdads stocker blew a 242 I swapped in a 231 I rebuilt and changed nothing but the transfer case. 96 fwiw

Coolness. I dunno how tough a 242 is and if I do a swap id rather go to a 231.


Got to love Xjs in the snuhr.

242s are stronger than 231s as long as you're rating strength in part time or low. The full time unit is what makes it "weaker" and it sucks as far as SYEs go. My stepdads blew bc it was the only thing I didn't check the oil level on when he bought it and sure enough it was empty when I pulled it

Kind of a niche piece, but this might be useful for someone:

7" drops of 1.75" x .083 for about $1 each. Could be good for gussets, standoffs, etc.
