Dirt Daily. Putting an Atlas Transfer Case in a Jeep JL

Рет қаралды 24,855

If you own a Jeep Rubicon you already have low gears in your transfer case, but if you own a Sport model, (like I do) then your low range gear leaves a little to be desired. So on this episode I'm swapping in an Atlas transfer case for lower gears, and stronger parts, plus the ability to perform a front dig. Stay tuned for a follow up video where I tell you how the Atlas has been working.
to order your own atlas go here:

and don't forget to call Tom Woods for your drive shafts:

How much did the transfer case cost Atlas?

@randyjones7001 Ай бұрын

@@user-gu7pp5eb8p I custom ordered it through their website a little over 2 years ago. The wait time ended up being 150 days. The transfer case and shifter kit cost $3500. The local mechanic charged $2500, which included a lot of custom work to get it to fit. This includes a new rear drive shaft and modifying the skid plate.

That was worth the watch and learning. The details were great, shows that you know what you're doing.

There’s a little lever on the spring of the parking brake handle that you pull with a long pick that will release the tension on the parking brake and the handle will come up to more of a 90 degree angle that allows the removal of the center console

I'm waiting on my rear driveshaft for my 2dJL rubi atlas swap. I wired the lockers into the switchpro so I can control them separately and not freak the computer out. Thanks for the upload, we'll done

I just got a JT Rubicon. It has the Rock Trac MP3022 "Full Time" transfer case. I didn't even know there was such a thing. I guess a few people with the 392 Wranglers have burned the full-time transfer case up. I am very interested in your Atlas transfer case install in case I might need to go that route one day. Thanks for making this informative video.

i actually sold my stock tcase to a buddy with a 392 so he could have 2wd as an option.

@@4xFredWilliamsI think the Tazer JL lets you do the 2 wheel option on the 392. A lot cheaper and less work.

Great video. I was stoked to see a good instructional video on the Atlas intall on a JL. I just got mine delivered to me last week. So what measures did you take to remove that difficult bolt on the stock transfer case? I have the Rubicon case so I'm not sure if I will run into the same issue.

Does that ZF cooler share the radiator coolant? In Oz in our Ford Falcons with 6 speed ZF's very common to swap it our for a dedicated trans cooler to avoid potentially milkshaking the trans.

yes, but used rubicon cases seem to hold their value and I wanted to try this route instead.
