this is a fix for the broken snap ring on the output shaft of a t-case, i think this is what is causing the shaft movement, vibration, and noise im getting.

its a collar that replaces the snap ring, and prevents further damage, but says it only works up to 2000...what would be different on an 01-02 241HD T-case?

EDIT: i think i've also learned that I have an NV241DHD, not NP241DHD

CTD NUT

NV = NP.....New Process changed their name to New Venture a few years ago....The P or the V has no bearing on a specific product they manufacture.

And to my knowledge, there would be nothing different about the rear output of the 01 and 02 241's.

I don't think this fix will help you.....the clip stops the shaft from moving in and out......if it breaks, there will be an instant failure that will leave you dead in your tracks. If the output shaft has side to side play, the output bearing could be punched.

Nothing changed on the output shafts that I'm aware of!

Are you sure you have a DHD, and not just an HD?? Maybe that's the difference?

i have no clue whats going on...this thing is driving me nuts trying to track down the source of the noise. im going to talk to the guy who rebuilt my tranny today and get his opinion on it.

these types of things make me wanna trade it in on a 3rd gen with all the bells and whistles
