Go get the front drive shaft. Congrats on upgrading.

Agreed. The 231 has a 3-gear planetary section, and the 241 is a 6-gear unit.


The NV231 transfer case is used behind many V6 and V8 engines in pickups and sport utility vehicles.

The NV231HD, used in the 1994+ Ram with V6 and V8 engines, features larger bearings and a wider chain than the NV231. All versions of the 231 cases use three gears in the planetary reduction set.

The NV241 is essentially a NV231HD with six gears in the planetary set.

The NV241D is a heavier duty Dodge version of the 241, with a larger input shaft and larger bearings to withstand the torque of the V10 and diesel engines.

The NV241HD, an option on Ram 2500's and standard on Ram 3500's built after 1998, has a stronger case and wider drive chain to better withstand the shock of snow plow service, a PTO cover and drive gear, and an extra bearing to support the thrust to the main shaft created by a PTO adapter.

Except for dimensional differences and the PTO port on the NV241HD, all of the cases are almost identical in appearance. An identification tag is attached to the rear case of every transfer case. The tag provides the transfer case model number, assembly number, serial number, and low range ratio. The transfer case serial number also provides the date of build. For example, a serial number of 9-10-93 would represent September 10, 1993.

Any one know where I can find a splined slip yoke for the front drive shaft none of my junk yards have any

Is it a 241LD or HD?
If the front output is a slip-style HD tcase, and you want to convert to flange style, you'll need to replace the 241HD output shaft HD# QU10200 ($60) and QK2006 flange kit ($289)

LD parts are shaft QU50505 ($130) and QK2006 flange kit ($289)

that's where I get my NV4500/NV5600/231/241 parts from.

If it's a CV flange front driveshaft, I doubt it.

I'd have to look, but I don't recall seeing a slip yoke tcase for a front driveshaft. All the ones I've seen, the driveshaft, itself, handles the compressions. do you have a pic of this? what year is it out of?


Only slip-yoke front tcase flanges I've seen are like old IHs or Broncos, etc.

The t case is a 241d out of a 02 RAM not sure what make tho and all it has coming out the front is the spline I will see if I can get a pic of it

Ok, it's an "LD" style of the 241 for Dodge; I didn't realize there was so much difference from it and the Jeep version. The Jeep 241D is a bolt-on for the front output shaft.

Is it a 32 spline? The Rubicon 241OR uses the slip-style, and is 32 spline.
