What is the output housing off the back of the transfer case made out of?
Im at school, thought i had a bad U-joint, so i crawled under her and the output shaft housing is cracked off all the way around. Gunna take it into the welding shop and have someone tack it up for me quick just so i can make it home, we just need to know what its made out of. I think its cast aluminum but thats just a wild guess by looking at it quick

Thanks in advance!!!!

take a magnet to it

 

lol its aluminum, just if its cast they take a different approach to welding it, but we just let the mig tack it up for now, plan on putting a new one in friday and driving the jeep for now

Thanks for the help though!!

Check the snap ring that hold the rear output bearing in place. It is probably broken.
