look what happened to me today
2 Attachment(s)
this is what driving up a hill in 4 wheel drive at 25mph will do to your truck with 500hp:argh:
|
looks like you might have a little bit of chain slop.....
ouch that sux..... time to get one that is better.... |
owie owie owie
Time to upgrade |
well i need to get her up by the 7th for a trip to seattle any ideas on a replacement
---AutoMerged DoublePost--- was driving at 25mph had a really bad shking for about 5 secounds then herd a boom and lost everything:argh: |
There was a NP271 in the For Sale section... You'd impress me if you broke one of those. I think it bolts right up, but you need to have the driveshafts lengthened/shortened.
|
i bet that made a nice lil sound. good luck on gettin it fixed man.
|
:ouch::ouch::ouch:
|
ya do this when ya looked :argh::argh::argh::argh:
dang man that sucks big time |
Ouch, that's a nasty looking hole.
Did you find a replacement? |
no luck on a replacement money is tight right now since i just got done wspending $2600 on head work and studs and track bar so cant be to expensive the snow was redish purple behind me when it happened. don have to worry about shortening the driveline had to do that last year after swaping axles
|
Ever had any problems with that t-case before that happened?
|
nope never yet never did any 4x4 bossted launches nothin, rarely go muddin with it and only enguage it to get moving in the snow, im still at a loss for words on how it happened, took it off and inspected it in may when i upgraded my clutch but thats it
---AutoMerged DoublePost--- would a "NP241c transfer case" with a gm 27 sline shaft work on my truck? |
Thats a major ouch.
Sounds like you use your 4x4 a fair bit - you might as well get a NP205 and be done with it. Sorry, I cant supply much more info than that. You can buy lower aftermarket gears than the factory ones. |
why wound i want a np205 thats smaller that my 241:humm:
|
Because its cast iron, all gear drive, and theres no chain to stretch. Oh yeah, its just about indestrictible.
Its true - size doesnt mean anything. :w2: |
ya but would it hold up to 500hp, will it bolt right into place of a five speed and can it handle 20k pounds of towing?:humm:
|
Im not expert here but I believe they are way stronger than a chain driven case. The disadvantage is that the gear could be lower. But like I said, there are lower gears avaialble from the aftermarket.
If you want bulletproof - thats what you want. Spend a bit of time reading up on them and decide for yourself. |
well if its better as you say than that will rull out me getting a 271 which is way out of my price range thats for the advice bud im mean SIR:argh:
---AutoMerged DoublePost--- what about throwing a built dana 300 transfer case on her my dad has one on his jeep with the nv4500 5 speed trany those are a few hundred bucks |
holy crap!
|
yep i did a number on it
|
Damn Dude..Nice Work.....:argh:
|
Heard theres a snap ring that lets loose..on the non HD transfer cases.

If you want bulletproof - thats what you want. Spend a bit of time reading up on them and decide for yourself. And yes they are probably the strongest t-case made. Nut they only have a 1.97:1 ratio. You can get one off a 1st gen cummins. ---AutoMerged DoublePost---

|
All i got to say is EASY KILLA!
I think somthing musta been wrong with your t-case With all of the 2nd gens out there pulling and doing 4wd boosted launches . Im not saying there the strongest but you would think it would take more than 500hp and a hill to break it. The 205 is stout... and heavy :humm: |
You can't use the NP241C, it has a different input shaft that won't mate up with the 29 spline output on your trans. Same reason you can't (easily) bolt up an NP205... Those are even more difficult. You have to get the case machined to allow for the MUCH larger input shaft (23 spline to 29 spline), and the bigger bearing thats required.
It can be done, but you're gonna drop $2k between parts, machining, and labor... drop $500-800 off that if you do it yourself. |
well my dad has a dana 300 with 180* flop left and right to it married to a nv4500 off a 93 cummins pushing 600hp out a chevy 454 that he uses as a rock crawler
|
yeah, in a much lighter rig with less torque, your truck probably out wieghes that jeep by at least 3k lbs and has a shit ton more torque, the 205 would handle it, but like stated above, youll have some mating issues plus, if you still want the part time 4x4, id go with the 271 that and less work to put it in. :pca1:
|
Getblown5.9 put in a 3rd gen tcase. Wasn't very hard, just needed to get a 3rd gen slip yoke and have the drive shaft worked on. You can PM him for details.
|
What you did seems to be pretty common. There was a guy locally selling 3 HD cases that were busted all to hell. I've seen 4 or 5 in person. Sometimes a part fails prematurely, one was from the chain breaking. Just my thoughts, but if you were to go with another 241HD case, you'd probably have to supply yours for the core charge; which I'm guessing could be from $3-500. Might as well go with the 271. I'll dig up some pics to show a side-by-side difference. I've seen quite a few for sale with (I believe) a 23-spline input. The difference is night and day, though. Very beefy those 271s are.
If you ARE in the market for another 241HD case, a guy in Evanston, WY is selling a 94 2500 5-sp. (minus the transmission) for $1800. He took the tranny, but everything else is there. I think his ad said something about parting it out. I'll see if I can find it, if you're interested. |
Last I heard Skynyrd had a 3rd gen case for sale....
|
ya i talked to skynyrd already but $800 is basically way out of my price range
|
Well you better find a way to get it in your budget... A 241 rebuild is about $1K, and you'll need a new case to go with it.
|
yep i know that already if it was in the summer season i could have boughten it already but with christmas the money wasnt all there
|
hey 94cummins12v:pm:

replyed:pca1:
---AutoMerged DoublePost--- found the tag in the road were the case broke for some reason it is a 241 DLD, ratio 272, tag number 52105370. why would there be a 241 dld not a 241 dhd on a cummins, what is the difference ---AutoMerged DoublePost--- is there any difference in bolting up a 241 dld off a auto than a 241dld off a five speed |
alot of it has to do with the spline count and the thickness of the gears inside the case. the DHDs are a little stronger then the DLDs and can usually survive a long time even with moderate mods done to the truck
|
what would have to be done to make a 241 DHD off a automatic match up to were a 241 DLD manual was
