Transfer Case in a 1997 Dodge Ram 2500
The transfer case in a 1997 Dodge Ram 2500 is the NP241DHD (New Process 241 Heavy Duty). This transfer case was optional on the 1997 Ram 2500 and standard on the 1994-1997 Ram 3500 for most year and drivetrain combinations. It features a slip yoke rear output, left drive chain front output, with CV range and mechanical shift engagement. The NP241DHD differs from the earlier NP241D used from 1987 to 1993. It is important to note that there were numerous design changes in the NP241DLD/DHD during its production life, making parts selection tricky without the round transfer case build tag affixed to the rear case half [[4]].
