Transfer Cases and Axles
« on: March 26, 2024, 11:18:52 PM »
From my experiences with Jeeps and Eagles, I have acquired a considerable amount of knowledge about NP231Js, NP128s, NP129s, NP228s, NP229s, and I have a fair bit of knowledge about NP242s, NP241Cs, and NP207s when it comes to interchangeability and years where differences occurred.

I also have a sound understanding of various rear axle swaps along with the workings of the CAD axle disconnect system in the front axles of some of our Eagles.

Feel free to reach out and I can provide support.

Thanks for the offer to help.  I know I struggle with understanding all the options available - especially when is it time to switch to a different transfer case because your viscous coupler is shot!

Sounds like you have an NP119.
