    Transfer Case: Re-Gear to 4:1

    Has anyone seen any cases where of someone regearing the transfer case to 4:1? Not sure how the mapping of the engine and shifting is tied to the transfer case, or is only about engine RPMs. Either way, just wondering is anyone as done it or heard of someone doing. I like 4:1 in my other...

    Transfer case stuck in 4L

    Stuck solid. No amount of wiggling, moving car forward/backwards, any attempts to unwind any tension in drivetrain failed. The lever will not move a mm. My feeling is the pin in the collar that pulls up to allow you to shift has broken.

    Grenadier is the only vehicle on sale with a fully gear driven transfer case, and unless if you have owned a LR Discovery 2 or earlier LR product, probably the only gear driven transfer case vehicle you've ever driven. They make some noise - it is normal.
