If you have the NP241LD stick with it. It's a great transfercase. You don't need the HD. Just make sure you install a transfercase saver ring, it'll save you a disaster later.

The 241DLD is stronger then a 231 right?
Ok Ill make sure I track one down, its just called a Tcase saver ring?
yes the 241DLD is stronger than a 231. From dodgeram.org:
The NV231HD, used in the 1994+ Ram with V6 and V8 engines, features larger bearings and a wider chain than the NV231. All versions of the 231 cases use three gears in the planetary reduction set.
The NV241 is essentially a NV231HD with six gears in the planetary set.
The NV241D is a heavier duty Dodge version of the 241, with a larger input shaft and larger bearings to withstand the torque of the V10 and diesel engines.
Somewhere I read that the 241 series used a different case as well. I have not confirmed that though.
