Transfer case

[Dixie Dragon]

What is the best transfer case that will go behind a 1000 Allison transmission?

LMM and up has the aluminum cased ones that are more durable then the earlier models. I think the internals are the same through. Not sure about the L5P with it's different transmission

What's the application or use that makes you seak out the "best"

I'm putting a 4bt Cummins and an Allison 1000 transmission in my Chevy S-10.

You should be fine with any of the transfer cases that where used. If it's a magnesium one just make sure it has a pump rub kit installed

The 4bt is not going to be more demanding then a Duramax

Probably going straight axle then? I’d go a ford 273 case then. Bigger tcase, stronger and fixed yoke at both ends

No, I'm keeping it IFS.

The factory transfercase is quite stout, are you having issues breaking them?

You're worried about a transfer case, and you're planning to run the stock IFS on an S10 with a Cummins on top of it?

I going to beef up the front suspension.

Good luck

Will they bolt-up to an Allison 1000 transmission

Yes. That's what is meant by a "factory" transfer case

I'm putting a 4bt Cummins and an Allison 1000 transmission in a Chevy S-10. So a factor S-10 transfer case will bolt up to an Allison 1000 transmission?

 

[Bdsankey]

Not the S10 transfer case. Generally saying the factory or OEM transfer case would imply what came behind the Allison in a GM vehicle, not what came behind the S10 driveline.

The factory transfer case behind a 4wd Allison 1000 is either a 261xhd (manual shift) or 263xhd (electronic shift)

Ok, Thank you

And assuming your transmission has the tail housing or 4wd extension installed
