SUBJECT:
NOISY TRANSFER CASE IN 4-HIGH
MODELS:
1988-91 T TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH NEW PROCESS MODEL 231 TRANSFER CASE
Some 1988-1991 T trucks may experience a noisy transfer case when the truck is in 4-high. The noise is caused by rotation of the chain and gears and is
transmitted through the transfer case shift linkage into the body interior. A quieter "T" pattern transfer case chain and softer durometer shift rod
grommets have been released to decrease the noise level. The chain can be identified by two blue links while the previous design contained one blue link.
The softer grommets are orange or beige while the previous design grommets were white.
