| I have the brother and father of a good friend broke down in NM. They’re looking for a salvage yard. They need a transfer case for a 2002 3/4 ton 4x4 durimax . I don’t know where they are yet. Looking for any advice on finding parts and delivery options. |

gosh,,Thad,,when you find out where they is at,,,I can try to help em....but bein Sunday it gonna be almost impossible ,,altho,,we can go to Car-part.com to at least locate them a transfer case. One option to get em going might be to disconnect the rear driveshaft and travel on the front one with trk in 4 high,,??? Let us know,,,

OK,,let us know,Thad,,,like ole Michael says we both on the east side of NM but NM is an awful BIG state and east side is the least inhabited part of NM. If they are in SE corner they are welcome to store it here till they can arrange transport back home,,I know ole Michael will do likewise for them. Keep us posted.
