A Slip Yoke Eliminator Kit will eliminate the need to drop your transfer case in order to avoid drive train vibrations that are caused by taller suspension lift kits.  This kit is a must if you have installed a 2” or taller suspension Jeep in your 1987-2006 Wrangler (not needed for body lifted Jeeps). The kit fits all newer production NP 231 transfer cases (1988 up).  The purpose of this kit is to replace the slip yoke portion of the NP231 with a fixed-yoke, CV style drive shaft assembly. This is the most complete and strongest kit available. Check out the size and thickness of the output shaft housing. NOTE: A CV equipped drive shaft will be required for this conversion kit.

APPLICATIONS :

This kit will reduce your tailshaft length by about 6.5" on 1997-2006 TJ Wranglers and by about 4.25" on 1988-1995 YJ Wranglers, which translates to lower rear driveshaft angles. This kit will also work on XJ Cherokees with the NP231 transfer case.

This kit comes with a heavy-duty rear output shaft which has a larger spline diameter and is stronger than the stock shaft. A new aluminum tailshaft housing, bearings, seals, snap rings, speedo drive gear, and instructions are also included. Some models may require shortening the transfer case mode shift rail.

This kit is supplied with a new housing that does not allow for the vacuum switch to be reused for this applications. It will be necessary to purchase a cable operated disconnect manufactured by 4x4 Posi-Lock   or replace the front passenger side axles with later solid axle shafts.

This unit is chain driven front output, left hand drop (front drive shaft on driver's side) on the Jeep.  The 231 are a light duty transfer case typically used in 4 and 6 cylinder Jeep applications.  These New Process cases have a circular tag on the rear of the case, near the center close to where the rear drive shaft exits. Identification information for the NP231 transfer case is on this tag typically includes model number, assembly number, and serial number and ratio data. When ordering a replacement transfer case it's most important to provide the assembly number. This number is typically eight digits, four number a rivet/screw head and four additional numbers.

Jeep, versions all use a 6-bolt circular bolt pattern. This pattern is non-symmetrical and will only bolt up one way. Jeep units and Dodge units are general interchangeable, however Chevrolet units are not. While GM uses the same 6-bolt patter, they have it rotate approximately 90 degrees from that used by Jeep or Dodge.

NP231 transfer cases come with either a 21 or 23 spline female input. The 21 spline shaft is frequently found in 4 cylinder applications and the 2.8L V6, While 4.0L 6 cylinder and 8 cylinder applications always used the 23 spline input shaft.
