you prolly dont care but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times then you can stream all the new series on Instaflixxer. I've been streaming with my brother recently xD
Good deal, I just did the slip yoke eliminator on my TJ a couple of weeks ago. I was surprised how simple the inside of the transfer case is. Awesome that you can change the guts between the two.
You can make a block plate for the Speedo and drill and tap it. You might have to weld in a stand off so it has the clearance but that'll make sure its in the right spot and you won't have to make a new hole.
Interesting video. I had a 2001 ZR2 years ago and I swapped the 236 for a chevy 231 (1996) along with the older console(dyed to match). When I went to install the 231 (cable shifted obviously) I found that all the mounts for the cable shift were already marked on the trans tunnel and just needed drilling out. I then used a 2wd dash plate to cover up where the old electronic shift buttons used to be. Single best thing I ever did to that S-10 based rig and I did ALOT to it.
I’ve did the same thing with a 236/246. Not that it’s a good Jeep application, but worked good for my van application. And FYI, the 246 uses a wider chain and gears and should fit into your 231’s. A lot of NP/NV parts interchange with each other
The AMG (Military) 242 from a H1, use mechanical speedo, however my M-715 truck it's going in will have a digital unit, so I picked up a manual speedo to digital output unit. Full disclaimer, not sure the "pulse width" will work with his S-10, but the parts can be found new and used, might save you time and headache.
You can swap the 3 port vacuum switch on top the t case for the front axle indicator switch and extend the the wire if you wanna keep the shift motor. Also from what I understand the speedo sensor has an effect on trans shift points
Glenn thanks for the info! This truck is a 5-speed manual so we don't have to worry about the shift points but I know the automatics need a speed sensor for sure. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the interest, we started working on the videos for this build. you can see it here. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RkEGwGjGc4A.html
Great Video, especially since I have a S10 ZR2 blazer that will be SAS's and I have been wondering the best way to approach a budget way for the t-case.. Now to see what T-case is in my XJ and upgrade that and use it for parts... also for a block off plate, maybe spins a plug that bolts to the OEM sensor bolt and has a recessed collar for the S10 speed sensor at the proper depth from the tone ring gear? Should be pretty easy to fab if you have access to a lathe and set up to weld on alum
Great video. Question, I have a 2002 Wrangler with the 4.0 and a NP231J TC. The TC cracked over the winter and I bought another TC from a salvage yard that was also on a 2002 Wrangler 4.0. That Jeep only had 70K miles on it. I bought that TC. That TC is also a NP231J but it only has 4 lugs to mount to trans. Is it ok for me to just utilize the 4 lugs or do I need to figure something else out. Thank you for your time and keep up the great videos.
So you said in the beginning of the video that you where going to use the back half of your np 231 and front half of his np 233. Later tho. You said you where putting your SYE on the back of his t case. So my question is is it his 2 halfs (complete np 233 case)or his front half (np233 front) and your back half(np 231 back) and SYE? I'm trying to replicate
Hello i have a 98 gmc jimmy. Want to go manual transfercase. I found a np231c out of a 80s 4x4 s10 blazer. Will it bolt in?? Any wiring i would need to do?? The np231c has mechanical spedo cable and has a mechanicl linkage not a cable shift. It was bolted to a 700r4 i have a 4l60e trans. I have a the shifter,the 4x4 adapter plate, the transfer case(np231c) and floor shifter linkage assembly. Also have the floor console.
Is there a channel/forum/ video about the s10 truggy? I would love to know what it actually is! can you please leave a link?... Oh and nice vid, very interesting!

It looks like there is a slip yoke eliminater kit on the nv231... my question is will a nv231 slip yoke eliminater kit work on a nv233? The 5 bolt pattern looks identical.
The chevy np231c has 6 gear planetary gears, and a wider chain. I would have not given up that HD planetary and stronger chain. I would have just changed the front driveshaft output and did the Chevy sye.
TheQuartermaster55 this is a Chevy np233. We used the front half of the case from the 233 for the final product. The chain on the np233 and np231 are the exact same size. 1"
