In this EPIC level of detail video we do a COMPLETE step by step tear down and disassembly of the New Process Gear 246 (aka NP246) transfer case as used by GM starting in 1998. This NP246 example is a first generation transfer case known as the Auto-Trak (or Auto-Trak I), or as regular production option (RPO) NP8. The NP246 transfer case is very similar to the NP236, and we will call out those differences between the NP236 and the NP246 as we go where we can, but we're focused on showing the NP246 disassembly here. These transfer cases were built by New Process Gear for both GM and Chrysler, later changing their name to New Venture Gear. After the name change, this model became the NV246 (or NVG246). The NV246 was also used on several Dodge and Jeep model trucks as a result of the Chrysler partnership, so this video will have some value there as well. However, we will be using the genuine GM factory service information for the steps involved, referencing any special tools required along the way.
This particular NP246 was not exhibiting any functional issues whatsoever, but did have a long term multi-year leak from the rubber plug for the spring clip access port on the top of the rear case half that warranted attention (leaks in this area are not uncommon). Upon opening up this 246 transfer case we find the unit still had fluid, though significant portions of this aged fluid had become more of a varnished hardened mud or goo from heat and age. Fortunately, this is the only problem with this NP246 transfer case so it was caught in time, and a full rebuild with all genuine GM parts will have it back into service quickly.
