First off, some specs. 1988 xj laredo, stock, 16 inch tires, 4.0 auto with np242 case.
A couple of months ago, after replacing a front wheel u joint and the steering gear box I noticed some ridiculously rough vibrating and thumping on my way to work at about 55 mph. It was so bad that the dash was vibrating.I pulled over and inspected everything I could but didn't see anything out of place. I turned around to go home and not even a mile later the transfer case exploded. The only thing I could tell was that it was pretty much out of fluid when it gave away. I've finally gotten around to finding a replacement but before I put it in, I want to rule out anything else that could have caused this to happen. If I put the thing together and it happens again I'm scrapping it.
