Hi All,

My daughter rolled my '88 XJ I-6 Auto. I've purchased a '92 XJ I-6 Auto. They are both the Larado model.

The '88 has a 'full-time' 4x4 transfer case, but the '92 has just 4x4 Hi and Lo. It doesn't snow much in San Diego where I live. My use is nearly all sand and dirt in the local deserts. I've not used the 'full-time' feature but preferred to put my '88 in regular 4x4 hi or lo, so I guess the '92 transfer case will fill my needs.

I am considering swapping transfer cases from the wrecked '88 to the '92 Should I? Will they swap without major mounting issues?

Thanks!

Scott Mac.

Why? It sounds like you don't need the fulltime feature of the 242.

I have swaped t-case of the mid '90s with no issures but I can't say for sure about that era.
