So, you're in the market for a transfer case? Let me tell you about the Zumbrota NP242. This isn't just any transfer case; it's a piece of craftsmanship that brings serious reliability to your Jeep Cherokee 4WD, especially if you're rolling with a 1996 model. You can count on it to perform like it’s fresh off the assembly line, thanks to the folks at Zumbrota who have over 150 years of combined experience in remanufacturing.

When you get one of these, you’re not just buying a part; you’re investing in peace of mind. Each unit is rebuilt to meet stringent standards, and they take quality seriously. They inspect every inch of the case and its components—think cracks, stripped threads, and gear wear—so you know you're getting something that’s been thoroughly vetted. Plus, they replace all the bearings, seals, and viscous couplers, which are the usual suspects when it comes to wear and tear.

One of the standout features is their unique cleaning process. They use a hydro-blast rinse combined with sandblasting to get both the insides and outsides back to an OEM-like finish. It’s not just a quick wash; it’s a deep clean that ensures everything runs smoothly. After that, they put each unit through a spin test to check for any noise or shifting issues. You can rest easy knowing that it’s been put through its paces.

And shipping? They’ve got that covered too. Each transfer case is packed in a high-density plastic tote, so it arrives at your door in one piece—no surprises there.

Features:

• Thorough quality inspections during the remanufacturing process to keep standards high.
• State-of-the-art hydro blasting and rinsing to restore that OEM finish.
• 100% replacement of seals, bearings, and viscous couplers, so you’re good to go.
• Shipped securely in high-density plastic totes to avoid any transit damage.
