Installing 242 Transfer Case '88 Cherk 6cyl

[SJPruett]

I am fairly new (I’ve done U joints, inner tie rods and things like that) at doing my own mechanical thing but my brother is very adept. He has never worked on a Transfer case before but from what we are told it will be fairly easy. It only took the guy I got the part from about 20 min to take off. Are there any detailed instructions out there that anyone knows about to do this? I found a good web site to swap a 249 for 242 but I want to make sure I get this done right the first timeJ. Thanks for any response.

are you installing a different type or changing the existing one for a new one?

I bought a used one, but the same type as the one that is currently in it.

I think it covers both engines, here is another link as well, I think the first is better for the transfer case, happy transferring the transfer...

I found the 242 Transfer Case instructions. Talk about complete instructions. This is great. Thanks again, I think I may end up using the manual for other items with my Jeep J.

You wouldn't happen to have a link or FSM for a 04 Liberty would you?
