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.
