29 spline output? Then it's an HD.

Yep I ordered both but I won't take the two apart! They came shipped together and together they stay! Any other clues? It is a 241DLD transfer case.

It won't mess with any seals or anything if you do separate them...

241 LD's were used behind LD and HD NV4500's, so no help there.

Yeah you will need a few thousand of 'em green thingys to get this one done... Unless you go all used parts, but in my opinion, if you are doing the job, might as well get it done RIGHT the first time.

Update: I decided to do a video walk around of the truck right now, will save me some time uploading pictures... So give me some time to upload the video. Right now I am still working on taking out the auto... Dropped the pan and it was full of clutch material... The ATF was a deep brown/black color :O... Somebody also rigged this thing with the cooling lines for a V10 47RE...
