locks in all gears. PO claims it was rebuilt by Jeff Daniel's Jeep in PA. I cant confirm that.
 

technically its a 249/242. the 242 was an 88 and had 21 splint input. it had the old cut planetary so i couldnt swap in the input from my stock 249. so its the 249 front half with input  and the 242 guts and rear half. the older 242s are internal slip yoke so no dealing with driveshaft crap like if you pulled one from a 96+ XJ or ZJ.

VIC wont display what gear you're in. no 4 prong plug on non ZJ cases. has speedo hole on the tailshaft.

your stock driveshaft should be good. if youre doing ujoints at the same time remember your rear yoke is 1330. not sure where else on the rear driveshaft is 1330.

drove this guy to buffalo and back saturday
drive nick and I to Mighty taco sunday

sunday afternoon i hop in to run to the bathroom, and kaboom steering wheel doesn't make the wheels turn half way though backing up from parking space at shop!



2 bolts broke and one ear snapped off box!
no good



all i can think is i over torqued the bolts because they were loose when i got it that was causing death wobble- and weakend the boots

back in service with a CJ5 high pressure hose because this genius squished the hose between the new box and frame rail.  FAWK
