Transmission will be fine but the transfer case input/output bearing will freeze up or go out due to lack of lube. It will get you around in an emergency but be prepared to walk, LOL.

 

...My question is can I drive it in 2wd until I get the rebuilt transfer case in?

NO...! There are a lot of parts in there that need lube in 2WD, too.

 

Thanks for the help. The truck will sit till I find a transfer case.

 

Will a 1995 dodge ram 8.0 v10 with auto transfer case work for my truck?

 

I found my answer.

 

fyi when my 241 blew up i called transfer case exchange in oakland,ca for $800 i got a brand new np271 with rear slip yoke elimintor and also modified shift pattern to match my 99. it has been in my truck for a couple years now with no issues. they are semi local to me and gave me a lifetime warranty on it. when i bought it they supplied all the transfer cases to kragen orielly good size outfit.

 

Update so I installed the transfer case and now when I have it in 2h the 4wd light comes on. Does anybody know what that could be?

 

Check the vacuum hose connection at the transfer case. It only goes on all the way in one position (there are two locating "pins"), but you CAN get it on there wrong. It's a square connector, so you have one right way and 3 wrong ways...

 

I found out reason the 4wd light was on. There's two hard vaccum lines that are bolted to the cross member that have two boots connected to them I had them backwards. Thanks guys for all the help. She's back on the road and I got to enjoy her in snow we got today. One last question anybody know if I can fit a 13.50 wide tire on a 8in wide wheel? I seen some guys put them on a 8.5in wide wheel. But not 8in.

 

good work,,, it sucks when we are broken.
Check out the tire manufacturer's website. it will list rim size specs.
