NP231 SHORT SHAFT "FIXED YOKE" KIT
INSTALLATION PROCEDURES:
Every effort has been made to make sure your kit fits and works right the first time. However, if you happen to
experience a problem with your kit, please contact us by our toll free
technical assistance line at (800)350-2223, Monday through Friday
8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. PST.
The installation of this kit requires you to nearly disassemble
the entire transfer case. If your transfer case is in need
of a rebuild, now is the perfect time to do it. To install this
kit, it is easier to remove your transfer case and set it on
end upon a workbench, but it is not necessary.
Here are a couple of points to keep in mind that will make the
installation much easier if you've never disassembled a New
Process transfer case:
1. Keep all bolts, nuts, washers, etc. separated into groups as you remove
them. Make sure you keep them in a labeled container that indicates what part of the transfer case they came from.
2. Keep all small parts in separate containers and label as to location and origin.
3. Make sure you have plenty of time and a clean, spacious area to perform the installation.
THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE YOU BEGIN:
1. This kit is shipped with a rear 1310 series C.V. type yoke. You will need a C.V. equipped driveshaft. We do also
offer other yoke options. P/N 300369 is a 1330CV yoke that uses the same seal as the 1310CV yoke provided
in this kit. P/N 716295 - 1310 non CV yoke, P/N 300472 - 1350 non CV yoke, P/N 300473 - 1410 non CV yoke,
P/N 300470 - 1300 series flange yoke, and P/N 300471 - 1410 non CV flange yoke. These yokes can also be used
on our fixed yoke kit as long as the tailhousing seal is changed. The seal required is our P/N 716755 or a CR seal
P/N 21061.
2. Medium strength threadlocker is recommended on all threaded fasteners.
3. A sealant such as RTV, (like the OEM sealant) is needed and is available from your local Jeep/Dodge dealer.
P/N 82300234.
4. The shift rail on the New Process transfer case may require shortening. Please refer to Page 9 of these instructions
to verify. If your transfer case requires this modification, then it can be done as described on Page 9 or the rail
can be removed from the case and modified while the case is disassembled. If the rail is going to be removed
and modified, please take note to how this mechanism is installed into the case assembly.

NP231 SHORT SHAFT "FIXED YOKE" KIT
DRIVE SHAFT MODIFICATION:
This job should be performed by a local driveline repair shop capable of balancing the finished assembly. (Use a C.V.
joint & long slip spline style shaft assembly.)
With the vehicle finished and on the ground, measure a straight line between the transfer case output yoke and the rear
pinion yoke center mating flanges. (Fig. A)
(Fig. A)
For proper C.V. type drive shaft operation, the rear differential should be pointed at the transfer case output yoke under
normal driving load.
If install is performed on jack stands, make sure you have supported the vehicle well!
Place the transfer case range selector in the 4L position.
Remove front & rear drive shafts and begin at the disassembly procedures. (Step 1, Fig. 1)
