Direct bolt-on replacement. Just get one for the same transmission you have. (not sure if any mods are required to use one from a different trans?)

If you are asking about upgrading your current tcase to a 4:1, no, I haven't heard of any kits to do that. And probably cheaper just to replace with a take-off from someone that went to an atlas...

Thanks for the reply! I was just thinking get a replacement 4:1 low transfer case to my current 2.72:1 low transfer case. What is the price like for the 4:1 low transfer case like the Rubicon's?

New, you may as well get an Atlas.

Used, I have seen them as low as $650, but $1000+ would probably be more likely. If you find one through a salvage yard or online somewhere, get the vin and verify that it is actually a 4:1. Would kinda suck to get it shipped to your door and 'then' find out that it from an X/Sahara...

There are several version of the atlas, your best bet is to just look on their website to see the variations. You could also look into the RubiCrawler from Advance Adapter.
