    I got my tera low kit for $900 (4wheelparts) and $500 for sye and HD driveshaft (tom woods)

    sure does make huge benefit...got my 1" clearance back because of the T-case drop before the sye installed.

    i just did mine with e the sye and oh boy what a difference. made every trail tons more fun.

    it's an easy kit. basicly you get half the t-case from tera and you bolt up your rear t-case to it and you go. the sye is done right there too.

    Thanks for the sympathy. I was actually thinking that this might be the time to do my SYE.

    that sucks, man! check the boards wanted sections too.. or buy the tera low kit? i think that replaces most of the case parts. (dont know for sure) but, that would be a perfect time for an upgrade

    X-Case NP231 ?'s

    Well, I drove the YJ from Portland, OR to Mesa, AZ last week. All went well, made it home safe. However......I did make a costly, foolish, mistake. I have been living with a slow leak out of the rear of the transfer case (oil seal in cone) that appeared after my SOA. Upon the advice of fellow Jeepers, I never changed the seal and just "lived with it", as I was told that it would just leak again due to the stress of the SOA.

    Checking the Tranmission fluid level in my X case was on my to do list before I left Portland. Well, I FORGOT! I ended up running it dry which has produced me with some GOD-AWFUL sounds comming from below.

    I have filled the X Case with fluid, hoping to "calm it down" a bit - no such luck. The ear-peircing metal grinding sound remains. So I guess it is time to get a replacement NP231 X case.

    My questions (by the way, funds are limited):

    1) Where would be a good place to find one? Wrecking yards, auto parts store, ect.?

    2) How much should I expect to pay? I have seen on eBay for $50-$150, but the shipping has got to be outrageous.

    3) Any opinions, suggestions, or tech help (advice)?

    4) I would love to hear about some similar experiences with this problem.

    Thank you in advance for the help. I really, really, want to drive my Jeep!
