- Vent Tube: Ensure the vent tube is clear and properly routed.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What does “remanufactured” mean for an NP231 transfer case?
A remanufactured NP231 transfer case means the unit has been completely disassembled, cleaned, inspected, and rebuilt with new or reconditioned components to meet or exceed original factory specifications. This includes replacing all wear items like bearings, seals, and often clutches, and inspecting all hard parts for wear, replacing any that are out of spec. It’s a much more extensive process than a simple repair or rebuild.
How can I identify which NP231 transfer case I need?
To identify the correct NP231 for your vehicle, you’ll need to know your vehicle’s year, make, model, engine size, and original transmission type. Crucially, look for a tag on your existing transfer case; this tag often contains important numbers that specify the exact model, input shaft spline count, and rear output type. Knowing these details will help ensure a perfect match. Contact our experts if you need assistance!
