so i have a 2002 liberty. and it has the 231 t case in it (2wd, 4H(part time) N, 4L) and i was wondering if its possible to swap it with the 242 (2wd, 4H(part time), 4H(full time), N, 4L. Any thoughts? |

Sure, why not? They are the same size right? |

Skip that, is there a way to get the Rubicon TJ 4 to 1 T-case to fit? |

I believe the 241-OR is a direct bolt in replacement for the 231. |

Don't bother with the 241OR, get a Tera-Low conversion kit! http://www.teraflex.biz/products/shop-b ... /low-range It gives you 4:1 and a super heavy duty rear housing. Though they don't list it on the site it can even be used on the NV-242. |

Although the terra-low may upgrade the output shaft housing, the 241OR has a ribbed case for your jeep's pleasure. That webbing is probably there to add strength to the case and probably does. Score another point for the OR. |

Any thoughts? it is possible and not terribly difficult. the main thing is to make sure your input and output spline counts match up. if you can find a t-case from an `02 or early `03 with the 45RFE tranny, you should have a direct swap (which is what I did). I also replaced the shifter handle/linkage so it works like it's stock. the only problem is that the full time light does not come on, need to have the dealer make a change to the BCM and don't feel like paying for the tech OTJ training! |

I was wondering aboot this too. I already have a 04 v6 auto, and now have just got a 02 crd manual, and was wanting to switch transfer cases, so I have the 4hi parttime and 4hi fulltime options.. Just wondering if the cases will be interchangable betwix a manual box and an auto. |

You will have major driveability issues with the selest trac and a manual trans,why the 2 where never offered with each other. |
