Dude! I'm new to the whole Jeep thing. I bought a 02 WJ and thought the transfer case was failing from the symptoms you described. I was looking up salvage ones and how fix and watched this just for the education on fluid. Now I realize what the problem is and ordered a couple bottles(I didn't know you needed to do regular transfer case fluid changes). You described the quadra trac operation in a way I could understand. Thank you!!! Subscribed and followed.
I have an 04' with the QuadraDrive. Did my transfer case today. Thanks to you Martin, very easy!!! The fluid didnt look too bad coming out. A medium brown color as it poured, but darker in the pan. None of the Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge dealers near me had the correct fluid. I had to order from Amazon. Differentials are next!
I recently purchased this vehicle. It was making the grinding noise exactly how you described it. I did the fluid change following your instructions. No more noise!!!! Thank you for your wonderful informative videos!!!
There are substiutes: Mobil Fluid 424 or 426, and Petronas Tutela PowerGear4 80W (recommended by FCA in Europe). The fluid capacity is about 1.5 liters, or 1.6 quarts
Hi Martin, My name is Antonio and I recently bought a 2002 Grand Cherokee wg Quadra drive. I watched your videos with interest and since I like to clean my car I ask you which oil I can use for the front differential. I read the manual and I don't know if my car has Vari-Lok and I plan to use 75w-140 synthetic oil. Thanks
If when changing the oil in the transfer case the oil is very dirty, in very poor condition, I mean, in very bad conditions, what cleaning procedure do you recommend, before filling up with the new oil? Thanks in advance!
Regular transmission fluid is actually one of the best cleaners there is; you may want to use some ATF-4. Fill and drive it maybe be for just several miles then drain it and refill it with the proper fluid.
Not sure if you guys gives a shit but if you are stoned like me atm you can watch pretty much all the latest movies and series on Instaflixxer. I've been binge watching with my girlfriend for the last few months =)
Awesome work Man!I'm trying to get mine to look and perform like yours. When I accelerate from stop or in first, I get a little buck. Nothing crazy and it's not very strong or loud. Just one buck. Story of my life. 😓
Gotta love how this guy leaves a critical piece of information about the completely different fluids required for the selec-trac and quadra-trac until the last 15 seconds of the video. I wonder how many people put Mopar OIL instead of ATF fluid in their selec-trac
Hi Martin! I bougt a 99 WJ with 4.7 in it. I watch your videos day and night!! They really make life easier!! Huge fan! Qustion: can I swap quadra drive differentials to my quadra track 2 and have the vari_lok both for front and rear axle? No more other modifications needed? Happy New Year and greetings from Sweden !!!
Yes absolutely you can remove and replace the entire axle or transfer case with no other modifications. That is something I would do if I had your Jeep. Thanks for watching and have a wonderful New Year.

@@martinbuilt I think a garage may have used the wrong fluid in the TC. My AWD no longer engages the front tires. I have the 247 TC. So will drain and refill with mopar fluid hoping that will fix it.
I did some research on the internet of course you find some people say ATF+ 4, others say the special fluid that I recommend in this video. My opinion is you go with the fluid that I recommend in this video.
Hey Martin, have you done your differentials front and rear? If so did you make a video on that? Thank you for the transfer case video. It really helped
I found the NV fluid at the Mopar house/Dodge/Chrysler/Plymouth/Jeep cash n carry . Great video btw good info. Change fluids as recommended.

I saw another comment here where someone wondered about adding the same friction modifier the rear end takes to the transfer case. I saw a thread in a forum where "a couple of certified jeep technicians" recommend it. Any idea on this?
Hmm, that may not be a bad idea. Where those same people recommending using ATF 4 and then adding the friction modifier or using the fluid that I recommend and then also adding the friction modifier?
@@martinbuilt Yes, adding FM to the Mopar Fluid. I did it and notice no ill effects. The groaning noises are gone. All the fluids (Diff and TC) looked good coming out but this maintenance cured the noise. Thanks!
@@scalywag Kind of a subtle "gronking" sound or sensation, for lack of a better word, when making slow sharp turns or coming out of a turn even more so. It still does it after the fluid change but not as bad.
Recommended fluid for the NP233 transfer case is automatic transmission fluid (ATF). I would recommend Lucas Semi-Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid Sure Shift amzn.to/2FJ3jX9
Did my 2 diffs today, with your videos help, thank you. The rear was difficult, tank and sway bar are in the way, took some time, but got it done. Then did the front, so much easier. Doing the transfer case in 2 days. I know you did a tank tuck, did you ever do a video of replacing the tank cover, or shroud? Heard thats a VERY difficult job. Mine is rusted very bad. And mine doesnt have the factory tow bar ☹. Want one. Wonder if that would make the job more difficult. Any suggestions? Thank you for your great vids. Btw, mine is 2004 Limited, 4.7 non H.O....yet.

@martinbiilt I have a question about my 00 wj 4.7 I’ve replaced the o2 sensor the map sensor and fuel pressure regulator and still stalls under acceleration I also clean the idle sensor and throwing o2 sensor
I have a 2000 grand Cherokee with the 4.7 and I had the same issue, replaced my O2 sensor and it didn't fix it, had to get a new PCM and that fixed the stalling issue
The owners manual for the 2000 Grand Cherokee has an error on the subject that was corrected on later issues. The NV242 t/c (Slect-Trac) does however use ATF. The Quadra Drive does require the fluid I recommend.
Hey Martin, i have a problem with my transmission not shifting after 3k RPMs, I’m replacing the output and input sensors and the accumulator spring, do you know where I can find the parts? Thank you!.
@@fernandozizumbo3997 I don't understand. This is the 247 Transfer case. The links are for the transmission. The transfer case is mechanical with no sensors.
@@taylorricaporte2646 if it is actually a 247 transfer case I would recommend the fluid that I suggested in the video because of the coupler inside that transfer case requires special friction modifiers similar to a posi unit found in a differential. Yes I think it's perfectly safe once the transfer case has been drained of the ATF + 4. Just curious what year Jeep do you have?
My 02 is making a click 😥 idk what it is . I just drove it from michigan to florida and back , didnt break down but I'm hearing a click when i hit my gas and let off . . help?
My 4x4 low jumps out of gear as soon as i accelerate and you can hear gears grinding . I think my tranfer case is busted. Any ideas what can cause this? And how to fix it?
Sounds like you got some real serious internal problems there. At the very least sounds like the shift fork needs to be replaced..I think it's time to either replace the T case or have ia shop service it.
@@martinbuilt just some feed back on my transfer case. The old chain was stretched and jumping on the gears. We replaced the chain with new and now it is working fine.
@@martinbuilt is that, I guess it has an additive? Or, it does have an additive! I'm in the UK, and the oil jeep tell me to use is different from US! Trouble is, there are different 4x4 systems and different transfer box across the range! If u know, it's a wj 4.7 2001! Plus jeep in the UK are telling my mechanic he would have to order a crate of the oil, from America! I'm sure fiat in Italy would have some!?
@@terrystratford1235 If you have an NV245, NV247, or NV249 Transfer Case I would use the fluid I have recommended. Yes, there got to be some kind of additive in this fluid. Unless there are other transfer cases manufacturers that have a VISCOUS PROGRESSIVE COUPLING you be able to substitute this fluid.
@@martinbuilt chers Martin! I'll check the number on the box and go from there! My mechanic has spoken to jeep and they say it doesn't need the friction additive like the one for the diffs. They used my reg for reference.! 3years ago i bought all the oils from jeep and they said it did need the friction additive! I love my jeep, but know nothing about how it works! What would happen after 10000miles fairly sedate driving with the friction additive in a box that it shouldn't go in?
@@martinbuilt jeep just past mot! Yeh it's a nv247 box. In the UK jeep don't stock for the wj! To order direct from America, min order ......a crate! So I will have to find an alternative oil!

Hi guys I have I have a 4.7HO in the UK. Genuine Mopar NV247 fluid is not readily available at our dealerships anymore as they are reluctant to buy it in, in bulk because of lack of demand or so dealership told me. I can get it off eBay costing £55 for x2 bottles but I have recently discovered Crown Automotive do a version TCL-1 and I can get that for £25for x2 bottles over here. Anyone have any experience with the Crown fluid? I only ask because the previous owner has had the fluid changed at an independent Jeep service garage (he is ex main Jeep dealer mechanic) and has refilled with a type of universal tractor oil and I have a front axle hop when turning on full lock on loose surfaces but not so much on tarmac, so I want to swap it out ASAP to avoid damaging my transfer case as the hopping is a possible symptom of incorrect fluid. Found out today that for the UK at least, Petronas took over production and supply of the Mopar NV 247 transfer case fluid (Petronas Tutela powergear4 SAE 80w) as Fiat stop importing the Mopar variant when they took over Chrysler. Anyone know if it’s the same formulation or had any experience with this product? Finally a Jeep parts specialist in the UK has advised me that 1/2 quart of friction modifier should be added to the transfer case fluid when refilling, is this correct? Not heard anyone else mention this on the web. Any advice appreciated.
Hey there! Transfer oil is what u mentioned, I've a 2001 wj 4.7 . I only drive her 4000 miles a year max. No problems with the transfer box! Like you I need diff oil! All leads go to .....must use mopar😅
If you were to take a Dremel with a cutoff wheel in it cut a slot into the plug then get a flat piece of bar metal that will fit in the slot basically making yourself huge regular screwdriver. Then apply some heat around the plug directly to the case I think you could get it to break free.
The particular transfer case that I have shown in this video requires this fluid and there are no substitutes. Check your owner's manual for your year vehicle for the proper fluid. The procedure to change the fluid is generally the same as shown in the video. And no one sponsored this video. Thank you for watching.
@@martinbuilt He didn't specify, but acted like I was a dumba55 for even asking the question. I will call another Jeep place to hear what others recommend and will let you know. I have no reason not to buy the Mopar juice, but if there is an equivalent that is cheaper I might consider it.

@martinbiilt I have a question about my 00 wj 4.7 I’ve replaced the o2 sensor the map sensor and fuel pressure regulator and still stalls under acceleration I also clean the idle sensor and throwing o2 sensor
I have a 2000 grand Cherokee with the 4.7 and I had the same issue, replaced my O2 sensor and it didn't fix it, had to get a new PCM and that fixed the stalling issue
Hello Martin, i have a 2000, 4.0 quadra drive but the book say dexron 3.....but your recomend the fluid in the video right?
The owners manual for the 2000 Grand Cherokee has an error on the subject that was corrected on later issues. The NV242 t/c (Slect-Trac) does however use ATF. The Quadra Drive does require the fluid I recommend.
Hey Martin, i have a problem with my transmission not shifting after 3k RPMs, I’m replacing the output and input sensors and the accumulator spring, do you know where I can find the parts? Thank you!.
I believe this is what you are looking for. Updated Pressure Transducer Sensor Kit Input Output 45RFE 545RFE 68RFE

Is it for the 247 transfer case ? The same as you do
@@fernandozizumbo3997 I don't understand. This is the 247 Transfer case. The links are for the transmission. The transfer case is mechanical with no sensors.
@@martinbuilt i type wrong but thanks Martin! Keep up with the good videos !!.
Thanks for the great video!
You are very welcome, glad you liked it!
I have a 242 transfer case in my 2000 4×4 Jeep Grand Cherokee. What should I use?
Mopar ATF+4 or equivalent.
@@martinbuilt Is it okay to use the synthetic transmission fluid for the transfer case and transmission?
@@martinbuilt How many quarts of transmission fluid does the transmission take?
@@johnwigren2497 yes all ATF+4 is Synthetic, 1.5 quarts
@@martinbuilt Thanks
Great vídeo buddy thanks
What type of transmisión fluid do you use for a 2003 WJ Quadra-Drive (247 J)
this is what I used.
Castrol 6810 Transmax ATF +4 amzn.to/2ZxvlN9
I’m replacing my broken tcase with a 247 j and my owners manual said to use ATF+4, do I use the fluid you’re using instead?
Also if the fluid they used in this one was the atf+4 is it safe to use the fluid your using if there’s residue of atf+4 in the tcase?
@@taylorricaporte2646 if it is actually a 247 transfer case I would recommend the fluid that I suggested in the video because of the coupler inside that transfer case requires special friction modifiers similar to a posi unit found in a differential. Yes I think it's perfectly safe once the transfer case has been drained of the ATF + 4. Just curious what year Jeep do you have?
martinbuilt mine is a 2002 four all time, but the new tcase I got from a friend might have a different year however it is the same body
I'm getting that vibration on my 06 4.7 commander
What would i use for 2004. Jgc patriot, 4.7 H.O
Use the same as I recommended Genuine Chrysler Transfer Case Lubricant NV 245/247/249 1 Quart amzn.to/2TehFs6
My 02 is making a click 😥 idk what it is . I just drove it from michigan to florida and back , didnt break down but I'm hearing a click when i hit my gas and let off . . help?
where is the noise coming from?
@@martinbuilt I got back home and sold it lol
@@bdizzzzy That's one way to fix the problem...lol
My 4x4 low jumps out of gear as soon as i accelerate and you can hear gears grinding . I think my tranfer case is busted. Any ideas what can cause this? And how to fix it?
Sounds like you got some real serious internal problems there. At the very least sounds like the shift fork needs to be replaced..I think it's time to either replace the T case or have ia shop service it.
@@martinbuilt great thnx for the reply. I did manage to track down a working second hand one .
@@woweeeeeeeee Awesome, that would be the easiest fix, remove and replace.
@@martinbuilt just some feed back on my transfer case. The old chain was stretched and jumping on the gears. We replaced the chain with new and now it is working fine.
@@woweeeeeeeee good to hear you got it going. 🙂👍
What about for the 242 transfer case (selec trac)?
I would still recommend the ATF+4
good guide !!
some one can link to oil plug?
thanks
Here you are amzn.to/34ic5Z0
what type of transfer case fluid do you use a 2002 jeep grand cheroke 2.7crd quadra drive P/N p52099360ac
Being that it is a quadru drive I would use the same fluid I used in the video.
martinbuilt Since there is no Mopar where I come from what can I use that would be compatible ?
martin got new wheels and tires!
Yes I did! and I lowered 1 inch.
martinbuilt could you share the specs on this wheel/tire combo? Id like to do something similar after seeing yours. Love the videos!
Does it have the friction additive? Like the diffs!
The Mopar fluid must have some kind of additive.
@@martinbuilt is that, I guess it has an additive? Or, it does have an additive! I'm in the UK, and the oil jeep tell me to use is different from US! Trouble is, there are different 4x4 systems and different transfer box across the range! If u know, it's a wj 4.7 2001! Plus jeep in the UK are telling my mechanic he would have to order a crate of the oil, from America! I'm sure fiat in Italy would have some!?
@@terrystratford1235 If you have an NV245, NV247, or NV249 Transfer Case I would use the fluid I have recommended. Yes, there got to be some kind of additive in this fluid. Unless there are other transfer cases manufacturers that have a VISCOUS PROGRESSIVE COUPLING you be able to substitute this fluid.
@@martinbuilt chers Martin! I'll check the number on the box and go from there! My mechanic has spoken to jeep and they say it doesn't need the friction additive like the one for the diffs. They used my reg for reference.! 3years ago i bought all the oils from jeep and they said it did need the friction additive! I love my jeep, but know nothing about how it works! What would happen after 10000miles fairly sedate driving with the friction additive in a box that it shouldn't go in?
@@martinbuilt jeep just past mot! Yeh it's a nv247 box. In the UK jeep don't stock for the wj! To order direct from America, min order ......a crate! So I will have to find an alternative oil!
Hey Martin I have the nv247 case in my 03 overland do I need to use the limited slip additive in the case?
iphone3gsdivine
I would just use the fluid that I listed in the video..
martinbuilt ok thanks
Mopar friction modifier is only used in the vari-lok differential cases of the WJ Quadradrive.
Could the wrong fluid cause the transfer case not to work?
It is possible there is a clutch pack in the transfer case and this is why it needs a special fluid operates similar to a posi rear end.
@@martinbuilt thank you very much for the response. I have a 2004 grand Cherokee I would like to hold on to. Had a new front end put on last year . 4wd not working though.
@@balor7 You could always go to a Pick-a-Part and pull a T-Case for around $160.00. They're not too hard to change out.
@@martinbuiltthanks for the info and timely responses. I got a quote of around 500 from a mechanic. I may go for it. What's your opinion of the 2004 grand Cherokee Laredo?
@@balor7 I like all of the Grands. I like the body lines of the 99-04. I do like the package of The Limited.
I have the NP242 which fluid do I use ?
use Dextron III but you could probably also use ATF 4 as well.
Where did you get your taillights?

Thanks for the info where can I buy some?

I don't recall where I got mine off hand. I just Googled it and found it online
Can I use lucia
I personally would not take a chance with lucas.
I have a np247 instead of nv247. Do I need to put mopar fluid or the ATF4 would do?
I recommend the fluid that I showed him the video to be used. It is better than ATF 4
martinbuilt thank you for the answer
Does it really say NP247 on the tag? Anyway NV247 is the same, and you need to use the Mopar fluid for NV247.
Is this the same for 2000 Dodge Durango
Yes it is.
Hey Martin on my 2000 Durango how do I know when to change the time in belt time in chain car hit 186,000 miles on it I bought it used two months ago do I have to do the whole time in chain into the head to everything at once
I use lucas trans. Fix fluid
Hi guys I have I have a 4.7HO in the UK. Genuine Mopar NV247 fluid is not readily available at our dealerships anymore as they are reluctant to buy it in, in bulk because of lack of demand or so dealership told me. I can get it off eBay costing £55 for x2 bottles but I have recently discovered Crown Automotive do a version TCL-1 and I can get that for £25for x2 bottles over here.
Anyone have any experience with the Crown fluid?
I only ask because the previous owner has had the fluid changed at an independent Jeep service garage (he is ex main Jeep dealer mechanic) and has refilled with a type of universal tractor oil and I have a front axle hop when turning on full lock on loose surfaces but not so much on tarmac, so I want to swap it out ASAP to avoid damaging my transfer case as the hopping is a possible symptom of incorrect fluid.
Found out today that for the UK at least, Petronas took over production and supply of the Mopar NV 247 transfer case fluid (Petronas Tutela powergear4 SAE 80w) as Fiat stop importing the Mopar variant when they took over Chrysler. Anyone know if it’s the same formulation or had any experience with this product?
Finally a Jeep parts specialist in the UK has advised me that 1/2 quart of friction modifier should be added to the transfer case fluid when refilling, is this correct? Not heard anyone else mention this on the web.
Any advice appreciated.
Hey there! Transfer oil is what u mentioned, I've a 2001 wj 4.7 . I only drive her 4000 miles a year max. No problems with the transfer box! Like you I need diff oil! All leads go to .....must use mopar😅
What size are these wheels and tyres bro?
Jerem Plstro please check out the description. Thank you
you left that comment about atf4 hard to find at the end
WOW SUPER 👍 la seguo..sempre..sono iscritto.. thank You 😊 w GRAND Cherokee 👍
im screwed because the previous owner tried to take the 10m allen screw fill out and rounded it
If you were to take a Dremel with a cutoff wheel in it cut a slot into the plug then get a flat piece of bar metal that will fit in the slot basically making yourself huge regular screwdriver. Then apply some heat around the plug directly to the case I think you could get it to break free.
@@martinbuilt i will give it a try .bcuz my front tires dont spin. but 4lo works and i think im low on fluid
I wish there were some fluid info on older vehicles that didnt include B.S. brand name sponsership..!!!!!
The particular transfer case that I have shown in this video requires this fluid and there are no substitutes.
Check your owner's manual for your year vehicle for the proper fluid.
The procedure to change the fluid is generally the same as shown in the video.
And no one sponsored this video.
Thank you for watching.
The tech told me two days ago that I don't HAVE to use the Mopar fluid, just any equivalent. Anyone else been told that?
OK, then, what's the equivalent?
@@martinbuilt He didn't specify, but acted like I was a dumba55 for even asking the question. I will call another Jeep place to hear what others recommend and will let you know. I have no reason not to buy the Mopar juice, but if there is an equivalent that is cheaper I might consider it.
@@chrismaggio7879 amsoil sells their Synthetic Tractor Hydraulic/Transmission Oil SAE 5W-30 that could be used as a substitute
@@russmarchuk4290 I will look at that as well. I've never used amsoil products myself (not for any reason, just never have) but I know many who do. Thanks!
Just stripped out my plug great...
How did you get the plug out?
