Buyer's checklist

What to check before buying a used transfer case

  • Match the part number on the case — transfer cases vary by engine, gear ratio, and shift type (manual vs electronic).
  • Check for leaks around the input/output seals and the front/rear flanges.
  • Ask about the fluid condition at removal. Clean ATF is a good sign; burnt or metallic-flecked fluid signals internal wear.
  • Confirm whether the shift motor (on electronically shifted units) is included and functional.
