I went to the local old tractor pulls last night to watch some pulling with the old tractors. They had classes for trucks and I entered my truck in the 3/4 ton 4x4 class. Did my first pull everything went great made a full pull with no problems. On the second pull got about have track and I heard a sound coming from my transfer case. I backed out of it right away but I thing the damage has been done. I took the truck back to the pits could not see any damage to the transfer case but the sound that is coming from the case is not good. Everytime the truck is in 4x4 the transfer case make a awful noise like the chain is jumping. The noise is like a clicking noise I think I did something to the chain in the case. The transfer case is a 241 DLD tranfer case. Any input would be a great help. Can the chain be replaced without pulling the case out of the truck. Thanks for you time Garry

 

In about 30 minutes, you can have the case on the ground and opened up to see what failed inside.

Not much to opening them up.

Thanks homestead I will pull it out and Check it over

 

Yeah a t case is so simple a caveman could rebuild it!

 

About the only real thing you have to worry about when you put the 2 case halves back together is the pick up for the oil pump.

Make sure it fits into it's slot and doesn't move when you put the case together and your good to go.

It doesn't weigh much so you should be able to man handle it on and off the trans no problem without using a jack. I found a jack to be to cumbersome so I just grunt it personally.

Thank you for the info I am pulling the t case tonight I will let you know what I find again thank you guys for the info. Garry

 

I would check the U-joint of the front drive shaft first to make sure you didn't destroy it.
Can't remember if it is a CV or not.
Much easier to deal with than the t-case.

Good luck with what you find.

 

Pulled t case out of truck. Took it apart t case is toast chain and gears are shot. Priced out t case in sask at wreckers they could not find any thing in sask. closed one is in B.C. two weeks to get it shipped in. Phoned NADP in edmonton 1600 bucks can have it in a day just have to go pick it up. Has good warranty on it too. Can you say road trip to Alberta Thanks for the help guys. Garry

 

Get hold of these guys and buy the master overhaul kit.

WAY cheaper than buying a complete transfer case. If your cases are OK, your already half way there being it's pulled apart, drop new guts in it and go.

I think it's about $600 US and it can be shipped to your door.
