Buying a used transfer case: what to check

  1. Match the exact model code. Gear ratios differ across trims of the same truck.
  2. Ask whether fluid was inspected at removal; metallic fluid means walk away.
  3. Confirm electronic vs manual shift versions.
  4. Check the output shaft splines for wear before install.
