I have a 89 XJ with a Aw4 and 231 Transfer Case.
I need to rebuild the trasnfer case and my intent was to install a HD SYE at the same time. However, I also need new planitaries (they are falling apart) and I assume all new bearings, seals and best to put in a new chain. The thing with new parts should run: ($200 SYE, $125 new planitaries, $100 rebuild kit, $100 new chain)
I figure I have another couple of options. Get a 231C from a S-10 with the 6 gear planitary and wide chain and put those parts in my 231J. ($100 for the 231C, $100 for rebuild kit, $200 for SYE) Am I missing anything? And then I have used gears and chain, or spend the money on the new chain?
Another option. Get a Dana300 and flip it. Anything else I would need to do? Are the outputs different? I assume I can get a 21 spline input for it?
Anyone got any other options (within my price range, not ready for a Stak or Atlas or Roc trac).
Which option would you guys do and why?
Any opinions or sarcasam appreciated!!
