02 Dodge Transfer case... BUSTED!!
 

Well was headed home last night on the turnpike and felt the truck start to shake and thought nope this cant be good:nope: my transfer case shattered. busted the whole housing and all... :argh::dang: so im in search for a good used one or even new.. if anyone knows where i can find one or even has one let me know. its for a 3/4 ton with automatic transmission. 47RE.
Also does anyone make a heavier duty one? i was told on the 1 ton trucks the transfer case is built a little better or heavier. and will it bolt up to my truck?? If anyone has one within 400 miles of miami, oklahoma, 74354, i would be willing to come pick it up. my money is good :tu: i just need to get my truck back up and running...

if youve got a 241, a 271 (someone correct me if i'm wrong) would be an upgrade.
Totally in many pieces? bobcat67 had his welded when it cracked and so far so good.

Yup the 271 is the big boy of the t-cases. Common upgrade for pulling trucks.

your probably like most of us and have a 241dld and not the dhd

ya in many pieces!!! not just cracked totally shattered. dont know if welding will work on er. well i will think about getting that 271. will it fit right up on my 47re stock tranny? ya im pretty sure i have the 241dld but i would like to go with something heavier...

with an auto you would have dld

well got everything pulled out last night. broke that sum buck all to heck. and i do have a 241DLD. im looking for a 241 DHD now. im pretty sure it will bolt right up. just by all the research ive been doing oin it. but i havent found any info on if a transfer case from a manual will bolt up to a auto trans. is there any difference?????:humm:

241DHD will bolt right up, it was just a factory option, the manual one wont fit because its 29 spline and the autos are 23 spline. You need a 23 spline 241DHD.

ok thanks buddy. im looking into them now gotta wait till monday to make some calls. hopefully i get one coming quick.

Find a bad used one (but still rebuildable), then have it gone through (around $1200 to have it done). Otherwise, your going to pay at least double that to get one from a 4x4 shop, cause you don't have a core.

Ive use these guys before.TCE · Order rebuilt transfer cases, makes & models: Ford, Chevy, Dodge, Jeep, Hummer

This is my buddy's shop, he might be able to get you a deal on a non core case. Sometimes has brand new NOS cases.

I have a case for a 241 DHD. Planetary is junk though. Difference in Auto to manual is input shaft on the trasnfer case. You can buy a new one and swap it in pretty easily.

I'm not sure all of the differences between the DLD and the DHD. Planetary doesn't have a PTO gear on the DLD and the out put shaft is smaller I believe. But Quote me at your own risk.

oh and you might already have done this but if you busted the case on you TC you might want to check your driveshafts. You could have some issues there that caused this. Front Double Cardan joint is a good place to start.

yes sir. that is exactly what caused all of this.:dang: got all new u joints front and rear shafts.:rocking: new 241DHD t.c. everything fit ok :tu: except for my drive shafts front yoke was smaller. got a new one of those.:rocking: and my drive shaft was 2 inches longer than supposed to be with a DHD.:humm: so i sent it to a driveline shop and the man is cutting mine down re welding it and balancing it for 45 bucks :jump:. thought that was a pretty good deal. but other than that truck runs great. glad to have her back on the road thanks to ya'lls help and comments. :c:

Do you still have the tcase? I wiped mine out in miami last weekend.
