How do I know what Ford transfer case I have?

Identifying Your Ford Transfer Case
To identify the transfer case in your Ford vehicle, you can use the following methods:
1. Check for a Tag: The transfer case should have a tag on it that tells you what it is. Look for the tag around where you check the fluid. The tag may contain the assembly number or other identifying information.
2. Use the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN): If you don’t have access to the assembly tag or if the tag is missing, you can provide the full VIN of the vehicle to search for the assembly number. This can help ensure that you are getting the right transfer case for your vehicle.
3. Consult a Professional: If you’re unsure about the identification, it’s advisable to consult a professional mechanic or a Ford enthusiast who can help you determine the specific transfer case model in your Ford vehicle.
Remember, transfer cases come in a variety of styles and specifications, so it’s important to accurately identify the model and assembly number when seeking a replacement or making modifications to your vehicle’s drivetrain.
