Beat me to it. Dana 300's around here bringing nearly 241 prices.

Nice thing about this way is you can spread out the cost a bit. However one you add it up you begin to question if it’s worth it or to just buy the complete upgraded caseThey do. It's a DIY case and you add all the parts yourself. If you look long enough you can find a used D300 for under $300.
It would be nice if Midnight would make cast D300 cases to compliment the sell my kidneys billet version.Beat me to it. Dana 300's around here bringing nearly 241 prices.
And it’s gonna get worse with the resurgence of these cases.Beat me to it. Dana 300's around here bringing nearly 241 prices.
You can buy a stock Dana 300 and install a flip kit and gears could get the job done for about $1800-2000.It would be nice if Midnight would make cast D300 cases to compliment the sell my kidneys billet version.

Could actually be done cheaper if you did your own flip job. I would recommend to use the DEO 300 flip kit. Nice kit that solves the leak issues when flipping a 300 and also solves the shifter and linkage issues.You can buy a stock Dana 300 and install a flip kit and gears could get the job done for about $1800-2000.

Rock box $1400
4-1 gears $750
Rebuild kit $150-$200
Donor case with internals $300-$500
New intermediate shaft $50
Add that up and the complete case with upgraded outputs starts to sound like a better deal.
I guess you could buy the remaining internals. Various washers and shift collars from Midnight. The above break down was showing that buying the case was a better option, if you were doing upgraded outputs, gears and the box you would be better off buying it complete.If you are buying the 4:1 gears and a rebuild kit plus new intermediate shaft then why do you need to buy a old D300? Other than the outputs you have replaced everything else.
I agree but , it won’t be a 4 to 1 ratio or twin stick for a multi tasking.

For most TJs with stock powertrain the stock 300 outputs would be fine.
It’s a fine line between building a case and buying one.
So if the 300 is too small for our tj’s with automatic transmissions , and we want a 4:1 ratio transfer case the only options we have is the (rubicon 241OR). Or an atlas?? Is that right ? So what 4:1 transfer case would fit the best ??They do. It's a DIY case and you add all the parts yourself. If you look long enough you can find a used D300 for under $300.
Wow how bout that.Yes I can agree with that one. It all comes down to what you're upgrading and how deep into it you want to go. And then at what point do you just say "F" it and spring for the complete case?
And as far as the D300 not being wide enough AA use to sell a kit (can't find it anymore) that had 2 pillow blocks for driveshafts to make a 2 or 3 piece driveshaft to move it around things. Here is a picture of something like that. So it isn't an insurmountable problem.

If I’m spending that much, I’d just buy one of these…You can buy a stock Dana 300 and install a flip kit and gears could get the job done for about $1800-2000.
That might take some time. It’s pretty much brand new I believe.Man I want one of these. Of course I find out about these the day after I received my SS SYE. I'd like to actually hear from somebody who has one installed in a TJ first though.
I’m definitely on the sidelines with a tub of popcorn myselfYeah, I know. Sounds great on paper right now but I want to wait until somebody finds out what's wrong with it before I drop the coin. I need me some 4:1 and a longer rear driveshaft in my life and this is the only practical option besides finding a 241 and bashing it in to place. Because tummy tuck.
Don't get too happy. Add the cost of that to the cost of the D300 and a new higher angle front driveshaft and it makes no sense economically.Wow how bout that.
