Just my luck. My tcase exploded on my way to king of the hammers. 4th day driving after my SYE install.
Transfer case exploded

not sus at all.
But dang yo. What kinda noise did that make? How fast were you going at the time?
OP
80 I felt vibrations and said to myself this is off let me pull over then boom!
OP
Did you install the SYE or was this done by shop ?
Could this be caused by a lubrication problem in the transfercase ?
Wondering if the oil pump pickup was not aligned properly and inserted into the pump.

I did it myself. My first time doing one. I put the tube inside the pump. I’m thinking it was still error on my end.

Free excuse to buy an atlas. Send it brother! In all seriousness that sucks, I’m sorry man.
OP
My front driveshaft made the most noise. It was just flinging around everywhere.
OP
I wish I had that type of coin. Going to find another 241 t case I’m hoping the gears to the jb conversion output shaft are still good.
OP
Did the front driveshaft fail? Its my understanding the centering ball can seize and that rips the t case apart.
There's a good chance that happened from the front driveshaft's CV seizing which is getting more and more common as our TJs age. Especially if you ever heard an 'angry sparrows' sound from the front while driving. We never used to see this problem but it's getting common now.
