- In this video I'll show you how to pull a transfer case at the Pull-A-Part salvage yard. You cant bring jacks to the yard for safety reasons so you'll need to go about things a little different.

helpful vid, thanks. but maybe give the tcase a bit softer landing, to avoid bending those bolts or damaging the threads. and probably don't just toss it on the ground after either :D
Take some ratchet straps and place them on both sides of what ever you are after and use them carefully to lower the heavy part you need. Sometimes this will help save time by not having to disassemble every thing, I use this method for transmissions, rear diffentals. Plus it also helps prevent you from dropping parts on yourself
The ratchet straps also save your life if anything falls
This video was posted at the perfect time! I have to remove mine due to a leak. Thank you!
This video helped me a lot. I looped a ratchet strap through the front doors and under the transfer case while I removed the lower nuts. Then I was able to easily lower the T case and reach the top nuts. It was super easy, and took me about 30 minutes. The hardest part was removing the nut on the driver's side that is behind the bracket.
thanks for this vid mat. still helping me years later
Hey Mat. This video popped up in my feed three days ago.It's funny because I planned to go to the pull a parts to get a 247 transfer case.Your video helped me alot.thanks man
Its always good relief after skinning your knuckles getting your part out, carry it up and drop it then light a cigarette.
Like droppin the mic.
What's safer, bringing a jack into the salvage yard, or dropping a transfer case on your head? That rule makes a lot of sense.
I think they should allow the use of a jack with either supervision or require you to explain exactly what they need it for... I can understand WHY they are concerned, but a lot of times it could be necessary.
Gerald Thomas he's got a lot of faith crawling around underneath with it just sitting wobbly on old rims! The hell if I would do that
Exactly. lol
Gerald Thomas that transfer case is pretty light... You can lift em by hand pretty easy..but stupid rule... I don't trust those godamn hubcaps it's sitting on
Gerald Thomas I was thinking the same.... I change mine last week and the mf was very heavy almost hit my head
Hahahahahaha, after all that... Just throw it on the ground... We don't need it... Video is done, LMFAO !!!
That half insert socket method works great. Never seem to have a deep well larger sized socked that I need.
this is perfect. buddies Dodge Dakota Tcase blew up on him. he has the 231 and im gonna show this video to him and we are both going to a junkyard to go pull one. thanks for the video Matt!
You're awesome !!!! I'm planning on pulling a 231 out of a U pull this weekend. Thanks Mat
thanks for watching bro!
holy clean junkyard
Thank you! I just successfully pulled an NP242J from a 93 xj 2 days ago, using knowledge from this video. The only issue I hit was 2 8mm bolts stripped on the front drive shaft to transfer case , so I had to buy drive shaft as well. But Pick N Pull told me I can return the drive shaft, and a friend managed to get them out for me.
My 2001 Jeep Sport, you would have to hold a wrench on the inside nut for the cross bracket.
Damn Im trying to get one off a Titan. 10 BOLTS! That thing is unbelievably STUCK on there! You made it look so easy. Maybe it wants some PB Blaster?! The 4lb sledge and a 2x4 has gotten me nothing but a pile of kindling lol. Yours just came right off I'm so jealous.
wouldnt recommend this method if you plan on re installing anything..works great for the junkyard but my friend tried to do the same method in his driveway and put a hole in the radiator and valve cover, dented the hood outward as well as broke his exhaust manifold,engine mounts, and power steering pump when he dropped the engine that far.
Thanks for the video.. ive taken a 242 off on my own Jeep by supporting the transmission and lowering it a bit.. ajd cutting a wrench to get to the top nut.. So i was thinking i had to do the same thing in the jy.
But i guess i can just let the thing drop fully lile you did and have easy access to it lol. I was worried it would like break the transmission if i let it drop but i guess its all being held by the engine mounts.. which i didnt realize.
Should nake ny trip to get a 249 off a 5.9 zj easier. My 5.9 zj tc is bad.. bad chain.. bad bearings. Other stuff.. makes lots of noises when driving.
I suspect my transmission has issues too as it whines in 1st-3rd when rolling.. not sitting just rolling.
But i cant afford the 46re and 249 together atm.. So i guess 1 outa 2 aint bad.
depending on the junkyard, some leave the scissor jacks inside the vehicles. when I pulled mine, we used on of those (on top of a stray wheel) to support the trans pan. then lowered it slowly from there.....slightly safer, hahaha. great video still. you must've set up a cot at that place for a little while for these videos, haha.
p.s. I also bit the bullet and purchased a 18v cordless 1/2 impact gun to help with the removal of any stubborn nuts/bolts....I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT
Agreed. I got the Craftsman C3 1/2" 19.2v cordless impact for like $90 on sale at Sears, and it advertises a max of 200 ft/lbs of force. I've owned it for about a year now and it has been a godsend many of times.
nice!! yeah I was torn between electric and pneumatic...even though they usually have less ft lbs of torque, I chose electric for the portability, glad I did
just did this the other day. try splitting one in the yard to retrieve the 6 pinion sungear and 27 spline input shaft from a NP241. no jacks allowed at our pick-n- pull either I always take a ratchet strap to use to lift stuff or support it.
i think i wouldve taken the whole thing instead, lol
well done video... Please add to video to include rope, among necessary tools. 4ft of 1/4" -3/8" plastic rope..quite important to make an easy job. just tie rope loosely around trf case for safety and ease.
Doing it tomorrow.
Thank you.
hey Matt I got to the six bolt part but there is this metal plate on the driver's side that has something to do with the linkage and seems to cover things up.I didn't see it in your video. I'm trying to pull an NP 242 off an '89 XJ. The bolts are 15 mm on the jeep I was working on. How do you get the plate off?
Get an oil pan, when I did this a gallon of t.f. dumped out of the tranny!😀🤣😄😅P.s.thank you bleepin jeep!!!!!!!!💪👍love your videos!
Dropping it like this cause any damage to the engine or transmission?
It might crack or break around the mounting tabs on the transmission to engine. Otherwise, the tcase is fine. Just don’t chuck it on the ground afterwards lol it is only cast aluminum after all lol!
Outstanding 🇺🇸
Dewalt Reciprocating saw is all u need
Thank you sir! Just what I needed.
Pulled a 242 out of a purple Cherokee at a pull a part today.
1/2" or 13mm..........14mm or 9/16". Such is working on a Jeep. Never know what you're gonna get!
You’re excellent!
I have a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7L with the Quadra-Drive system with a bad transfer case. Was wanting to know if and what the difference in the T-case from an 00 to an 02 with 4.7L and Quadra-Drive is? I went to 2 different recycle yards and was told the T-Case from a 02 4.7L w/Quadra-Drive will NOT fit My 2000?? I'm looking at a T-case from a 02 because of it's price and low miles.
Awesome
One question how yea put transfer case back in lol asking for a friend 🤣
You fool person
FOOL PERSON
Love it. Great video!

Thanks!
Could you do a video on how to pull a d44 rear end at a salvage yard or just any rear axle??
sure, ill do that one next.
Sweet thanks!
Hey if my automatic transmission flips back and fourth between second and third gear when I hit bumps in the road...could that involve the transfer case? Its a 97 Cherokee.
No, try watching my kickdown cable video.
Bleepin Jeep, on my 99' grand cherokee I found a disconnected tube and couldn't figure where it went to till I saw this video. it's the breather tube. Where does the front end of the tube connect to?
dave rig somewhere up where it wont get water in it. If you plan to go deep in mud or water than run it up your intake so its protected.
Dam bro you are bad ass dude!!!
what gear should the transfer case be on before pulled out
for safety reasons you can't be safe
Thanks for the video. but at 8:23 where u "free willy", ya that's not happening. weve unbolted everything and it isn't releasing no matter what we do. please help?
Nicole Powell I've undone everything and formed a small gap but tc still won't come off
dude your videos are great. if I may,...try to use correct names for things cause some people really need you too. like the speed sending unit. you called it the speedometor...... lol
Bring something to rest your back on because rocks are not comfortable
I know this is an older video but what do you expect to pay for that transfer case at a bone yard?
I know this is an older comment but...
Here they run 77 with a core, 87 without
Older comment.. but where i live theyre 160$. They used to be 100$ but its gone up. (Inflation right) lol
should invest in a half inch drive impact gun.....
You must have been pissed that day, as was I when I did 2 transfer case uninstalls in the same day.
One manual, one automatic.(manual is mine)
A tiny ratchet with wide handle will make the job easier...
“ I hope you can see these nuts here”
Just let it slam?
Salvage yard carnage!
I used another Jeep jack on top of rear break drum at the junkyard to support the tranny, didn’t want my used parts slamming the ground!
Fickls mistress
To each his own
How did you take the nut off the side where the linkage bracket is i tried a wrench and no space
Get into the habit of wearing safety glasses, all of the time. You've only got two eyes once.
NO
I'd go one further and recommend goggles. This is coming from a guy who got powder coat in his eye WHILE wearing safety glasses. They don't protect that well at all and let me tell you particles in the eye are a horrible experience I assure no one wants to go through. I have a phobia to this day about it.
So did this ruin the engine mounts?
the whole truck is already ruined at this point...
+Omega Rugal I know on this truck, but I meant if you were to do this on your own jeep.
SouthernArmory
yes..
SouthernArmory nobody uses junkyard engine mounts anyway.
There was probably a jack in the trunk
theres no way u unscrewed this bolt that easy
what did you end up paying for the case?
+mpeugeot I left it there for the next guy. all prices are listed on their website though, it's the same for every vehicle
How bad ass. You just go to your local junkyard to A.) Make a video for your CZcams and B.) Help someone else out.
C.) make a little dough advertising for Pull-A-Part.
i have a question i got a 99 xj is the tcase the and in a auto trans as the 5 speed.
o2 sensor on a tcase? thats the 4wd shift light
This video is useless if you are trying to remove an NP231 case from a Cherokee that you care about i.e. trying to fix. After 4 hours of wrenching (or attempting to) the only way I see is dropping the whole transmission assy with the transfer case.
Also if you want an SYE made in USA - you need to get an Advance Adapters manufactured unit. Rough Country and others are mostly Chinese (Outland aka Omix-Ada)
did mine just fine without dropping the whole thing...getting the top bolts off is a pain but we got it through the center console. did take us about 4 hours to get it out but i didnt have all the tools i needed or a lift..probably couldve leaned it back further on the engine mounts but i didnt want to break anything
