Transfer Case

[jlaub]

okay... been out of the jeeping world for a while and I'm looking to get my third jeep, a Cherokee Larado, never had one and the guy I'm working the deal with said it's missing the transfer, he thinks it had the np249???? My question is, will a np208 bolt up to the automatic transmission that's in it? It's out of an 84 wagoner. The cherokee is a 95 with the 5.3l enginem he's not sure of the transmission that's in it.

Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks, Josh

The 208 will not likely bolt up. You need to have a transfer case with the proper mounting flange, and the proper input shaft with specific spline count and length. You can do a google search for '249/242 swap' and '249/231 swap' for some alternatives to the 249. Both searches will show you what I mean by input shaft differences.
