Default Transfer case questions

Hey guys I'm new here, and just got my truck a couple weeks ago. I was wondering what t-case it has. The truck is an 03 R/T with the automatic 4wd. I'd like to switch to a part time case if I could so I don't always have the extra rotating parts and maybe get a couple mpg back. Is this swap doable and what model t-case would I look for?

You can also look on the t-case for part number and it will also show what t-case you have. It may show 241 or 242. And if you don't find the answer, send me a pm.

Turns out it'll have to wait for any kind of swap. It snowed a bit today and turned into sheer ice. My wife was drive and was slowing down for a traffic light, truck started to skid and hit a curb, breaking off a good six inch piece of the lip on my wheel. Anybody got a spare 17x9 chrome R/T wheel they wanna sell?
