Just picked up this up and the only problem is it makes a horrible sound from the case. Looked at it a bit more tonight and found out while in 4wheel drive the rear will spin but the front just clunks and makes a horrible noise in high range. Put in low range and it just the rear spins.

Is this a common problem? Is there an easy fix or do I need to pull and rebuild the whole case? I guess the PO left it in 4wheel for a while so maybe the change streched?
 
Hi All:

I don't know much about late model Heeps, but it sounds like something is up with your NP231 t-case!

I would suggest spending some quality time with a search engine like Google looking for a Heep forum where someone might have a prior experience similar to yours.

Good luck!

Alan
 
check all the bearings also and the gears that the chain rides on, usually they only stretch when some one runs them out of fluid from a leak.
 
Well I pulled the old case today and it was dry as a bone! The chain slap must have been going on for a while because it had a nice hole. Glad I picked up the other case :cheer:
