A used Jeep Wrangler transfer case carries a median asking price of $833, which is 254% higher than the Ford Expedition at $235. Supply also plays a role: Jeep Wrangler has 3,951 priced listings versus 235 for Ford Expedition, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.

Grade A (excellent condition) parts make up 77% of Jeep Wrangler listings compared to 55% for the Ford Expedition, so buyers looking for top-condition units will find more options on the Jeep Wrangler side.

The Ford Expedition average ($292) runs 24% above its median ($235), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.

Our guide covers 10 model years for the Jeep Wrangler (2015–2025) but only 4 for the Ford Expedition (2015–2025), so the Jeep Wrangler data reflects a broader range of generations.

The Jeep Wrangler transfer case is interchangeable across 19 model years versus just 10 for the Ford Expedition — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.

At Grade A (excellent) condition, the Ford Expedition is 66% cheaper ($275 vs $800) — the gap widens compared to the overall median difference.

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.
