transmission case. Replace seal if lip is cut or
worn. Install new seal with 15/16 deep well socket
(1).

4. Place valve body manual lever in low (1 position) so ball on park lock rod will be easier to install in sprag.
5. Lubricate shaft of manual lever with petroleum jelly. This will ease inserting shaft through seal in case.
6. Lubricate seal rings on valve body harness connector with petroleum jelly.
7. Position valve body in case and work end of park lock rod into and through pawl sprag. Turn propeller shaft to
align sprag and park lock teeth if necessary. The rod will click as it enterspawl. Move rod to check engagement.
CAUTION: It is possible for the park rod to displace into a cavity just abovethe pawl sprag during instal-
lation. Make sure the rod is actually engaged in the pawl and has not displaced into this cavity.
8. Install accumulator spring and piston into case. Then swing valve body overpistonandouterspringtoholditin
place.
9. Align accumulator piston and outer spring, manual lever shaft and electrical connector in case.
10. Then seat valve body in case and install one or two bolts to hold valve bodyinplace.
11. Tighten valve body bolts alternately and evenly to 11 Nꞏm (100 in. lbs.)torque.
12. Install new fluid filter on valve body. Tighten filter screws to 4 Nꞏm (35 in. lbs.) torque.
13. Install throttle and gearshift levers on valve body manual lever shaft.
14. Check and adjust front and rear bands if necessary.
15. Install the transmission range sensor (Refer to 21 - TRANSMISSION/AUTOMATIC/TRANSMISSION RANGE
SENSOR - INSTALLATION).
16. Connect solenoid case connector wires.
17. Install oil pan and new gasket. Tighten pan bolts to 13.6 Nꞏm (125 in. lbs.) torque.
18. Lower vehicle and fill transmission with Mopar
ATF +4, Automatic Transmission fluid.

A straight line shift pattern is used with a NEUTRAL detent. Lever range positions are imprinted in the shift knob.
SHIFTING
The transfer case can be shifted between the 2H and 4H operating ranges while the vehicle is in motion. The vehi-
cle must have the transmission placed in NEUTRAL, or the clutch depressed in the case of a manual transmission,
and be moving less than 2-3 MPH when shifting into and out of the 4L operatingrange.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TRANSFER CASE - NV241 GENII
Before beginning repair on a suspected transfer case malfunction, check all other driveline components beforehand.
The actual cause of a problem may be related to such items as: front hubs, axles, propeller shafts, wheels and tires,
transmission, or clutch instead. If all other driveline components are ingood condition and operating properly, refer
to the Diagnosis Chart for further information.
DIAGNOSIS CHART
Condition Possible Cause Correction
Transfer Case difficult to shift or will
not shift into desired range.1) Vehicle speed too great to permit
shifting.1) Stop vehicle and shift into
desired range. Or, reduce speed to
below 3-4 km/h (2-3 mph) before
attempting the shift.
2) If vehicle was operated for an
extended period in 4H on a dry
paved surface, the driveline torque
load may be causing a bind.2) Stop vehicle and shift the
transmission into neutral. Shift the
transfer case to 2H and operate
vehicle in 2H on dry paved
surfaces.
3) Transfer case external shift
linkage binding.3) Lubricate, repair, or replace
linkage bushings, or tighten loose
components as necessary.
4) Insufficient or incorrect lubricant. 4) Drain and refill to edge of fillhole
with Mopar
ATF +4, Automatic
Transmission fluid.
5) Internal components binding,
worn, or damaged.5) Disassemble the transfer case
and replace worn or damaged
components as necessary.
Transfer Case noisy in all operating
ranges.1) Insufficient or incorrect lubricant. 1) Drain and refill to edge of fillhole
with Mopar
ATF +4, Automatic
Transmission fluid.
Noisy in, or jumps out of, four wheel
drive low range.1) Transfer case not completely
engaged in 4L position.1) With the transmission in
NEUTRAL, or the clutch depressed
in the case of a manual
transmission and the vehicle moving
under 3-4 km/h (2-3 mph), shift the
transfer case to NEUTRAL and then
shift into the 4L position.
2) Shift linkage out of adjustment. 2) Adjust linkage.
3) Shift linkage loose or binding. 3) Tighten, lubricate, or repair
linkage as necessary.
4) Range fork damaged, inserts
worn, or fork is binding on the shift
rail.4) Disassemble unit and repair as
necessary.
5) Low range gear worn or
damaged.5) Disassemble unit and repair as
necessary.

gear (4) and on top of input gear (3). Be sure
washer tabs are properly aligned in gear notches.
5. Install retainer (2) on input gear and install snap-
ring (1).
6. Align and install low range/input gear assembly (2)
in front case (1). Be sure low range gear pinions
are engaged in annulus gear and that input gear
shaft is fully seated in front bearing.
7. Install snap-ring (2) to hold input/low range gear (1)
into front bearing.
8. Install a new input gear seal using Seal Installer
8841 and Universal Handle C-4171.
