Transfer case questions
I was thinking of changing out my transfer case to a Rubicon unit. I have a Sahara. A few questions:
1. I assume the X and Saharas use the NV241 Gen II and the Rubicons use the NV241OR. Is this correct?
2. Is this a simple bolt in swap or are there differences between the regular t-case and the rubicon? And will I be able to use my stock rear driveshaft with the rubicon case?
3. Have any of you priced out a re-manned unit. I deal with a shop that is a Jasper dealer and am thinking of getting a re-manned unit. Don't know the price yet.
4. I'm getting a new front driveshaft anyways. It shouldn't matter, but do the rubicons use the same companion flange that the X and Saharas use or are they u-joint style? I guess this would be answered in question 2.
Thanks.
