I just received my new (but used) Np231. Tera low, AA SYE, and heavy duty chain, to swap in place of my other NP231 with an RE SYE. I was wondering if anyone would want to come over when I'm ready for the swap and help me out with it. When it was shipped a few of the studs that bolt it to the transmission got bent up. So once those are fixed up and after the UPS claim stuff is all done, I will be ready to put it in. Where can I buy those threaded studs if anyone knows what I'm tlaking about, I'm not sure what they are called. I live in Central Jersey, Princeton Area. Thanks a lot _Nick_

I'd love to help but i dont think i can get over there.

The studs i think you are talking about are maybe the ons for either the new half (x-fer case) or new mounting studs. Not to sure on that one.

between the two you are talking about, they are definitely the mounting studs.

Nick, i'll be pulling my transfer this week also. I have a leaking seal between trans/transfer.

If ya like you can come over and we can "tag team" the installs.

Yeah..that would be great. What day do you plan on doing it. I'll see if I can make it. I can also pick up those shims you said i could take. Even if we don't do my install at your house, it'll be easier since I've seen it done. Oh well...we'll plan something. later _nick_

Hey nick dont worry about the studs. When you take out your current t-case you can take the studs out of it using either vice grips, the double nut, or the actual tool i froget the name but its like a esentric that tightenes up the harder you unbolt it or something. but im free from like 6 on everynight and on sunday. let me know

That would be a "stud remover". :)
